summer visit

We just sent 301,580 yen ($2,523.89, according to XE.com) to a travel agent via bank transfer for our flights home this summer. It does feel good to pay for our own tickets, rather than relying on parents as the two of us did when I was in Germany, but damn, that's a lot of money. Anyway, at least we got the direct flights on Northwest this year.
07/24 (Tuesday) Depart Narita at 15:25 on flight NW 6, arrive PDX 08:30.

08/20 (Monday) Depart PDX at 14:40 on flight NW 5, arrive Narita 08/21 17:00.

The two of us will be on the same flights home this summer, rather than the staggered flights we've had the last two summers. The longer trip reflects the fact that we'll have at least two members of the Suzuki family with us from July 24th - 30th, and the fact that I'll be back east for awhile (August 10th - 15th seems likely right now).

8 months after we fly back to Japan, we'll be back in the States permanently.

Good news. Nice to have your dates. Sorry it's so "teuer" (wrong language, i know). FYI, Jim and I'll pay for your trip East in August. Love you MUCH!!! (I take it your cat sitter will be on duty while you are both gone?....). Love, MPM
