My first morning in Japan leads me back to Seiyu, a store much like the American "Walgreen's". I am still getting used to my family, and the culture shock is starting to creep up on me, but for now I'm taking my time and letting it all soak in.
I start the adventure off with a sizzle however, as my initial departure takes me from SeaTac International Airport, to Dallas/Fort Worth. This waste of a day was required to allow a timely arrival in Japan for the weekend of the 3rd, but it's implementation wasn't exactly requested.
I may be out of the country already, but I wanted to take some time to travel to Sakura-Con before I left. I was unfortunately misinformed on the date this year, and it's location. I guess I'll have to wait until next year to recover from my yearly lobotomy.
Expect footage from this quarter soon, I am currently in Dallas on my way to Tokyo later this morning.
