Well, I am heading back to Japan after a 1o day visit to Canada. I am sitting in Vancouver airport at the moment, not looking forward to my 9 hour flight to Tokyo. Unfortunately, Air Canada would not let me check in to this flight in Calgary, and I had to wait until I got to Vancouver to get my boarding pass. This resulted in no more window or aisle seats left on the plane, and therefore I am bracing for a cramped and uncomfortable flight. yay.
Being back home was wonderful, and seeing my family and friends again is something I definately needed. It was great being able to understand everything and be in a comfortable environment. I take for granted so many great things about my country, things which may seem really trivial to others, but I really miss. Things such as being able to walk and eat/drink at the same time. Or being able to read labels on products. Or completely understand what store clerks are saying to me. *sigh. I love Canada.
Switching back to driving on the right side of the road was a bit weird, and resulted in me occaisonally driving on the wrong side of the road, just ask my sister. Probably scared the crap out of her a few times... Lucky for me this only happened when there were no other cars around. Now I have to go and switch back again once I get to Japan. Hopefully that goes well...
