Contenders, ready

Hello everyone.

Well, we leave this evening and one of us (the one with the shorter hair) hasn’t really packed yet. And is still in bed typing this at 10:39. What could possibly go wrong?

The good news is that we have been provided with all manner of creams and ointments by experienced travellers (namely dad, Jenny and Colin) so our extremities should last the pace even if the rest of us don’t.

Ian has his own chopsticks so he’s happy. Even if he isn’t packed.

The schedule for the coming days is as follows:

Today (Sunday 6th April)
Pack (well, one of us needs to pack)
Leave about 5pm
Realise one of us has forgotten his passport
Run back to the flat
Leave again
Fly to London
Go to sleep

Monday 7th April
Fly to Tokyo

Tuesday 8th April
Wake up in Tokyo

With luck we’ll achieve all of the above and be in touch when we find wi-fi.

Have a great Monday everyone!

Love I&C x
