      In Haneda waiting for flight to Okayama. Magnificent view of Fuji san as we came over Japan, unfortunately the ice crystals on the plane window threw the iPhone focus off, but you all know what it she looks like.

      Within 20 minutes of landing here, we both felt uplifted. Being here and interacting with airline/airport staff who actually give a shit is so nice.......

                A lovely dinner (this was some of the starters...)with Sarina and family.....

                And Keat was rather partial to the large pink prawn that I gave him with a box full of other mixed lures (Mia plays with the squidgy 3d stickers Paula send her).....

                  Will you have chance to wet a line while over there then Giles?

                  Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

                      I had to ask Google what „to wet a line“ means 🫣

                              Looking like some great weather! The Seto is such a beautiful sight. I hope to return to Kojima eventually. How is the Japanese language aspect of things for you two? Excited to hear what developments come out of this trip for IH.
