Well – we almost made it home. Due to an equipment issue \/ change with Thai Air (BTW – they are awesome)…we missed our United flight to Denver by minutes. \u00a0Keep in mind, our flight from Tokyo to Denver was direct. \u00a0That means any other option (unless we waited 24 hours) meant connecting flights…that might or might not have worked out. \u00a0So we elected to stay in the airport area (Narita) for 24 hours. \u00a0Basically, we got a 24 hour, all expense paid side trip, by our travel insurance and Thai Air, to Japan. \u00a0Mathieu was fine with this as he got another stamp in his passport and can now claim Japan as a country visited. \u00a0 There was not enough time to go into Tokyo (The Tokyo airport is actually in Narita, which is an hour outside of Tokyo by high speed train). \u00a0So we just did a little bus tour of Narita, relaxed and reset for our flight home.<\/p>\n
Thus, while we had a 24 hour delay, our intinerary (flights and planes – which are incredibly important to Mathieu) stayed intact. \u00a0Mathieu wanted to fly an A380 (check), fly a Dreamliner Polaris Class (check), fly international into Denver (check). \u00a0I know, spoiled…but as you all know Mathieu, his addiction is everything flying, so the flying aspect of this trip was as important to him as the pyramids of Giza.<\/p>\n
