UA San Francisco gt Nagoya

08.14

UA 831 San Francisco > Nagoya, Somewhere Above The Pacific.

We took off c. 12.30 Thursday from San Francisco, simultaneously 05.30 Saturday in Nagoya. So, it’s currently 15.14 in San Francisco yesterday as well as today somewhere else. I’m sure that makes sense.

My adjoining passenger is a non-Booby. This is a great relief on a journey of 11’19 in the air. He is a Delta aircrew person, with a sense of personal presence. He is on his way to taipei & his flight has been switched to this. a rare treat & a joy to have an adjoining passenger with a sense of his personal presence.

20.45  Hotel Acceptable, Nagoya.

Landing c. 17.20; uneventful immigration, baggage & customs procedures; local promoter waiting for us; an hour’s drive to the hotel. KC stayed here in 2001. Or was it 2003? Well, either 2001 or 2003. Perhaps both? 

My UK & US cellphones have no reception here, so it’s down to figuring out the old method of calling home.

Dribble dribble.
