bus a on im

(written 13:06 Thursday 03 October 2019 JST)

I'm on a bus! I'm on a bus! Everyone, look at me; I'm on a nearly empty bus, headed to Narita, headed to Seattle to see Colleenie Bean Dawg for a day doing touristy things in the city and then having pizza at their crib.

(The bus is now waiting at a light like 5 minutes from my house. So funny how transit works on this planet.)

awesome connection + synchronicity

Wandering a bit aimlessly, I discovered there's a lounge where certain customers can chill and maybe get food and drinks.. I am apparently not one of those customers, so I don't know!

Rejected, but not too dejected, I noticed an information booth so went to talk to them. I found out exactly what kind of customer is allowed (over 50,000 miles), but she wasn't able to look up the mileage I have since I am flying on a different airline.

Turned around and noticed a cool little exhibit type thing where we can create wood block prints at no charge! Wow! Perfect gift for Colleen, and with the perfect timing: I had just enough time to make the print before boarding started on my flight!

flight delayed

... make the print before boarding started on my flight!

So I walked back to the gate and blinked a couple times because no one was there! I didn't miss it did I??? ohhh gate change information and 75 minute delay..

Wow! What other adventures can I get into in a whole hour plus??

Colleen had to wait an extra hour for me to go through immigration and customs in Seattle. Once we hung out, though, it was like no time had passed!

Lively laughy fun dinner with Colleen and Ryan at their house while eating pizza.

Fun playing Pandemic three times and losing in different ways all three times!

I have just renamed all the photos and will redo the block of photos above to intersperse them with descriptions.
