It's Official! I Got My Flight!!!

After staring at the BOOK button on my computer for about 3 hours, I finally had the courage to make the decision. I am officially heading to Japan!

My first reaction was; "Hahahah! Holy Cannoli!! yoop-dee-doo , I am skippidy-dodley going [I don't really talk like this] to Japan! Yeah!!!"
My second reaction that soon followed was: "What.. have.. I... DONE..."

Anyway, my flight leaves Miami on the 7th of September, stopping by LAX, Tokyo Haneda, and arriving two days later in Wakkanai. This 40,000 inhabitants town is the northernmost city of the country, and the closest thing to CAPE SOYA (the tip of Hokkaido where I begin).

After 24hrs of flights and layovers, the riding will officially begin on that same day (the 9th). The trip then will end almost 2 months later, hopefully with me still in one piece, at the southernmost tip of mainland Japan, CAPE SATA, in Kyushu. My flight back is on the 31st of October from Miyazaki (nearby)...so I better be there by then, or I'll have Interpol looking for me to get me to pay off the student loans I gladly left back home. On the upside, if this scenario does occur, I will probably have to start selling myself to all the Japanese girls there, to fund my living expenses and return flight... What a terrible scenario (jk).

....Wash dishes, you say? Pshhh! You go wash dishes.

Btw, I'm still working on the site. As I progress through my trip I'll upload photos and videos that are directly linked to the location I was at the time (if I can manage to get it working that is). Gotta buy a ton of stuff still and come up with a bit more $. I'm also trying to learn as much Japanese as possible in the meantime.

This is gonna be awesome!!
