Dawn of the Final Day: 24 Hours Remain

Well not exactly 24 hours, but close enough. Man oh man, the day has finally arrived. I'll be headed out to Japan tomorrow morning and I am just a mixture of excited, nervous, scared and anxious. I'll be flying out of Grand Rapids at 8:10 where I'll take a brief stop in Detroit to board my next plane. Then from there it's a non-stop flight to Narita International Airport. From Narita Airport I'll then have to make an hour and a half train ride into Omiya Station where I will be picked up and taken to my apartment. I'm certainly nervous about making my way to Omiya by myself. However, it'll be an experience that I'm ready to handle. 

It'll be awhile before I might have Internet, so I'll update as soon as I can with pictures and video of what's going on. I know I posted it on facebook already but I'll say it again. Please do not call or text my phone. The fees are insane and I do not want to have to pay for them. If you want to contact me please do it through Facebook or email. I will eventually get back to you. 


Awhile ago I was very worried as to whether or not I should be taking this trip. I was worried about whether it was the right move. And even now I don't know. However, and it may seem silly, but I eventually made my decision after I saw this scene from "The Hobbit". 


Gandalf and Bilbo


I still don't know if this is the best choice, but I do know that when I get back I'll have a story to tell and it will be my own. I'm looking forward to sharing my story with you. Adventure awaits!
Brian
