[Sangetsu]

I liked the shots of the headrest video monitors on the plane. I hate those things, the miles and minutes pass far too slowly for me (I've done the to-and-from-Japan gig 4 times now). I'm always so tired on those flights, but I can never sleep, I'm always stuck sitting in the "screaming baby" section of the plane (even when flying first class).

Travel stories are always fun. My own include things like delays, missed connections, cancellations, diversions, misplaced bags, turbulence and lines of airsick passengers at the few toilets...

But they also include meeting interesting people, getting to see and experience unexpected things (often good things) when the itinerary went to hell. And also getting a sink-or-swim chance to use Japanese and find my way around Japan on my own when one of my flights was diverted to Osaka from Tokyo.

Time to start saving your money for your next trip.
