I guess it's technically day 4 in Japan, but it's only our third full day, and that's what I'm counting. Let's start with the journey here.

Wednesday night late, Charlotte's sister Emilie was nice enough to pop by and drive us to the airport for our 12:55 AM flight to Atlanta. Now that we're married and living in the burbs, 12:55 is kinda late. Luckily, we were excited to be on the road so tiredness was not a problem. For those who don't know, we're taking this trip flying standby all the way. Charlotte's dad has flight benefits from Delta and he was kind enough to throw a buddy pass my way. Anyway, we got on our first flight without a problem.

We finally had some nice weather around here after a bunch of lousy days. I guess today was supposed to be all about melting snow, but the storm that was going to dump 18" of snow on us Thursday night missed the area completely.

Seizing upon this perfect afternoon, Charlotte and I decided to take a little drive in the Mini and take some pictures. It was also a bit of a test drive for the new GPS I got for our Japan trip. I know, I know... I'm a geek. :)
