Japan 2010 Arrival

Albert and arrived in Tachikawa safe and sound late last night. The flight was smooth other than one 5 minute interlude which brings back memories of a six flags ride. Oddly during this period the screaming babies found it amusing and began to giggle.

We met with Pastor Takahashi and his wife Yoshie for dinner and got caught up on the church news. Today we will begin planning for the summer camp and the VBS program.

This year we face 2 immediate challenges: the exchange rate is the worst we have ever experienced and the temperature is the hottest it have ever been. If I were british I'm sure I could make some clever pun about shedding pounds.
