Flight was great, made friends with a couple of college kids who were part of a Philipino dance troupe (though they were Japanese) on tour in America, and they helped me practice my terrible Japanese - it's a little less terrible now! After the flight, my company helped me navigate the intense mesh network of trains that is the greater Tokyo metropolitan area, and after a short walk from the train station, I arrived at my apartment.
That's the entrance-way, with a little galley kitchen. I sleep directly above the entrance-way, if you can believe it.
This is the main room of my place, with mid-afternoon light. The computer-looking screen is actually my TV, which has all kinds of special features which I have no idea how to use. Exciting to look at though.
From the other direction. The first time I saw the loft I jumped with glee, no kiddin.
On the ladder, which is a scary place to be half-awake from jet-lag in the middle of the night, heading to the bathroom. No injuries, so far so good.
The crowning prize - a toilet that squirts your butt with water. What else could I need? Maybe an air dry button, I'm still trying to figure out if it has one ...
Right now I'm heading off to downtown Tokyo, all the teachers hired this semester with my company have a seminar for the next two days to get to know each other and the company curriculum, will post more when I get back. :) Miss you guys
