(I don’t really know the day or the date; at this point I’m just guessing)
Oh dear! As soon as we got off the plane we were told the flight to Bangkok had been canceled. United’s customer service desk was mobbed. After hours of wait time we were told we had seats on a Thai Airlines flight
tomorrow morning. We were also told we would be bussed to the Hilton Tokyo Bay (a half hour ride from the airport). This meant we had to leave the airport. DÉJÀ VU! Getting fingerprinted and eye scanned before leaving
the airport brought back memories of last year. But at least this time we wouldn’t be lost in the subway without accompaniment. We would be on an air-conditioned tour bus filled with other discombobulated travelers. Right now all I
want to do is sleep in a nice comfortable bed. I hope the hotel has toothpaste. Mine was confiscated and thrown away before boarding the last flight (I was so busy measuring the liquids that I didn’t even think of the size of the toothpaste
tube).
We are at the beautiful Hilton Tokyo Bay outside of Tokyo Disneyland! Too bad we got here so late. Our room is so modern it’s scary. You really can’t get the full effect in just this picture.
