                    <title>Departure day</title>
                    <description>It39s 931 am in the morning on Sunday May 6th in Japantime and 530 PM on Saturday Pacific Standard Time happy early birthday Mom. I39m all packed except for the laptop. Anna is taking a quick shower and then I39m off to Kitakami station to get on the shinkansen. We didn39t move fast enough this week to get reserved tickets so I will be jumping on one of the three cars that are </description>

                    <title>Keeping busy</title>
                    <description>I39ve received some inquiries as to how I39m doing and the answer is I39m very very tired but it39s been a great trip so far. I was at an onsen for two days which was relaxing especially loved the massage but no Internet access. Yesterday I was out all day to look at areas of the coast  very hard to see but important to see as well. Anna39s volunteer group HANDS went in a tr</description>

                    <title>Feeling very discouraged about blog attempt</title>
                    <description>I was up early this morning Monday Japantime still Sunday I believe old time and wrote the longest entry about my arrival and the first morning I stayed here only to accidentally bump my laptop and closed the browser window. This laptop is extremely sensitive to small movements. I thought I might have saved a draft of the entry but I hadn39t. I was a bit encouraged when I found three comme</description>

                    <title>Making Up For Lack of Photos</title>
                    <description>I have more to come but here are some photos to make up for the lack of photographs so far of my Japan trip on this blog. There are lots of food photographs for those of you who said you wanted to live vicariously through my food experiences.</description>

                    <title>Another Missing Entry  First Arrival at Narita Airport  Skyliner</title>
                    <description>I have now officially been awake for 24 hours but despite a general fatigue I seem to be feeling a second wind. Maybe it was the two dinners Singapore Airlines served me one at what was 1 AM Pacific Standard Time or all the juice and green tea I drank. Or perhaps it is a false rush of adrenaline I received after the frenzied race through Customs buying my ticket to the Skyliner and getting to</description>

                    <title>The Lost LAX Entry</title>
                    <description>It39s almost 200 PM here at LAX as I39m writing these words about an hour from boarding time on my flight on Singapore Airlines to Narita. I assumed with the length of layover I have here over six hours there would be plenty of time to update my travel blog. However I haven39t been able to access the Internet despite a tantalizing list of network names that seem to be some various of</description>

                    <title>Here I Am</title>
                    <description>I wrote some blog posts when I didn39t have access to the Internet and took some photographs but I39ve been up for 25 hours as of now without sleeping so the short story is I39m safely lodged at my hotel room in Ueno with my sister.</description>

                    <title>Fueled and ready</title>
                    <description>This morning I got to sleep in a few minutes beyond 330 am as my mom was unaware I was relying on her as my alarm clock. We still managed to take off from my parents39 house around 400 am. I didn39t really feel like anything to eat or drink but I took an allergy tablet. I was very grateful to have Mom drive me to the airport.I went to get my boarding pass and check my small suitcase. With</description>

                    <title>The Night Before</title>
                    <description>Vacations that involve going somewhere are not just physical journeys about how we get from Point A to Point B and back again. It might be the English literature major in me but I do believe that all physical journeys are also mental journeys.Do I feel prepared for this particular journey to Japannot yet but I39m not sure if one ever is completely mentally and emotionally prepared to take </description>
