Arrival

Just arrived inVancouver form Narita. I spent the last few days taking everything from the apartment in Yokosuka and getting rid of it. I ended up giving tons of of stuff away. I've slept maybe a 16 hours in the last 4 days. I worked until 11pm the night before. I stayed up until 3am cleaning and then was up again at 7am. I ended up having 5 kilos overweight and they wanted to charge me 700$ to bring my suitcase. So I went aside and stuffed a big pile of papers into the backpack. Turns out I had 6 kilos of papers. I still had to pay 50$ as the regular overweight fee but it's not 700$! The flight back was good, I ordered a kosher meal when booking and it was good food. It looked a lot better than what anyone else got and there was also more food in total. I Had fish with corn and some kind of sauce, big hard crackers, some sort of soft cookie thing, apple compote, chocolate pudding and a potato salad that was 90% green peas (I didn't eat much of that). Breakfast strangely was very similar but without the chocolate pudding and with a fish salad as the main course. I tried to sleep on the plane but I was way too tired. I made friends with the guy who was sitting next to me. We ended up having many empty spaces on the flight so we got to have 3 seats for 2 people, it was nice and roomy. Security was crazy at the entry of Vancouver, there was some big shot visiting while we we entering (maybe the PM?) and he was surrounded by dozens of armed police officers. Now I have to wait from 10am till 7:30pm for my connecting flight. I could go earlier but I was told my check in luggage can't follow me and I'd have to come back and get it. So I'm not going to be able to advance my flight. I'm tempted to leave the airport but I'm not really in the mood to walk around Vancouver and not have a place to sit or use the internet. Vancouver airports internet is great. Free and available everywhere.
