Paris-Osaka: 12 hours, great flight. Fantastic to be back in Japan!
Loved every minute of this European tour, but being away from my daughter for the first time was the bit I did not like. Can't wait until she is old enough to explore London and Paris with her dad. Of course, her great grand father was from Basle Switzerland so she may have a special interest in Switzerland as well :-) Shortly after I got back to Japan we went out for a walk and a bit of shopping. It's cool to wake up and have a morning run in Paris and be strolling around temples and shines back home by the afternoon (though some 16 hours have passed). It's really muggy, however, as we're in the middle of "tsuyu" (梅雨), the rainy season. Thanks again to all the awesome people I met in London, Paris, and Switzerland! I'll be back soon.
