Aug 11/12 - and we’re off ... again

Sandy spent much of the day cleaning, after the rest of the gang left. Emma, Zoe and Matthew were amazingly good at 5:30 am, but this isn't their first rodeo.

I was intending to go for a short ride but intermittent rain ruined that. I did get one chore done, X5 oil change. I was reminded by the pike in the workbench that I've got new brakes for Sandy's car. Later ... maybe next spring !

Packed and loaded, we said farewell to Cassie, Amanda and Gavin and left for Toronto.

It was an easy drive; we got to the airport comfort inn just after 8pm. What a disappointment. The price is right but the hotel hasn't been refreshed in years. We had a crummy meal in the pub. It can only get better ! Just down the road was the Sheraton Four Points for not much more money. Ok. Time to put that CI in the past.

We are at the airport now waiting. We've had a glass of wine - it's 13 hours later in Tokyo. We're entitled.

A 13 hour flight awaits us soon and the time difference is 13 hours. So ... add 26 hours and we miss Monday. It's going to be a scramble when we get there as our next flight leaves 2:25 later. I hope Tokyo Haneda is efficient !

Upward ! East or west ?
