I've arrived safely and am already halfway through a business day here (slackers). It is unfortunate that flying here means you lose a day, but I'm looking forward to making up a whole extra day coming back.
So far it has been a relatively easy transition. Sure I don't speak any Japanese and I feel kind of rude having to do a lot of pointing and mumbling, but everyone has been extremely nice and at the office there are several co-workers who speak english well.
I couldn't find my camera before I left (but thanks for loaning me the charger anyway, Anil) so I'm missing out on a million photo opportunities. It seems like if any place had disposable digital cameras it'd be here.
A side affect of Vox being so media rich is without any photos to share I feel the post is meaningless, somehow.
I got some good blocks in.
And I took a few to the face.
The next few minutes were hectic and in the end somehow the Outlaws managed to pull of winning the game by just a few points. It was a most excellent way to tie up a long and difficult season. My team was definitely the underdog going in to the game, and it made me very happy to see them all step up and play so well together.
