Sayonara Colorado, Konichiwa Japan!

So, the day has finally arrived.  After months of preparation and the insanity of the last few weeks, we are finally in the airport waiting for our flight to San Fransisco.  From there we will fly to Tokyo and begin our Japanese adventure! We have already had a few travel hiccups (incorrect names on the tickets... yikes!) but we have sorted everything out and should get there on time.  So, with very little sleep and alot of nerves, David and I are off for our yearlong adventure in Japan! Now would also be a good time to mention that David and I recently received our placement in Japan.  I am living in Utsunomiya, the capital of the Tochigi and David is up the mountain in the little town called Imaichi.  Technically Imaichi is a subdivision of Nikko, a famous tourist site in Japan.  We are couple hours north of Tokyo in the mountains and the area sounds like it will be perfect for David and my interests.  Well, that is all for now and I will post once I can access internet in Japan! Wish us luck!
