Traveling over the Pacific

 Today I made the commute from Atlanta, GA, USA to Narita/Tokyo, Japan. I left ATL at 9:30am on June 11th and arrived in Japan at 4:30pm on June 12th. After customs, buying a cell phone, and taking a bus, I arrived at the Garden Hotel Narita at 7:35pm.

There are scientists from other countries who are also participating in the JSPS-funded program. I have spent my evening hanging out with folks from England, Germany, France, and Canada. I hope to make some buddies who I can visit in the future!

A "love hotel" across the street: Hotel Chapel Christmas. I don't believe there was a wedding chapel.
