Real Time: Friday August 6 at 0645
The 65th Anniversary of the Hiroshima A-Bomb. For the first time, the US ambassador is going to the ceremony. That is a big deal here. Also, you might think that Japan would not have nuclear power plants. You would be wrong – they have 56. And, like us, have not a clue as to where to put the spent fuel.
Leaving tomorrow. The first 12 hour flight is a little daunting. But, the second time – you know you can make it. Watch a movie. Listen to the iPod – I have a new book on the iPod. Eat. Snooze. Walk around the plane. Eat. iPod. Snooze. Walk around the plane. Maybe watch another movie. And then you are over Kansas. Almost home.
How about some photos from Tokyo?
