Naturally Nihon

Here we go! I'm really excited to finally fly aboard the massive A380. I'm reminded of the many flights out to the Philippines and back in 747s in the late 70's when I was a skinny lad. By luck, Diana and I chose to eat in Wagamama which got us a clear view of our ride pulling up to its gate. Well, I say a clear view, but the runnels of rainwater on the window didn't help. Next stop, Dubai!

On Thursday, Diana and I catch a flight from Gatwick heading for Japan. It's our first trip to 'The Land of the Rising Sun' and of course I'm very excited because of my passion for bonsai. The map below shows our itinerary of eight unique destinations, assuming all goes well.
