February 19, 2010 Yokohama, Japan
From New York to Hong Kong we’ve traveled 18135.4 & it’s day 46.
The exchange rate $1 equals 83.63 Yen
Yesterday at lunch I lost part a tooth eating a hamburger (it wasn’t the food, but a bad tooth). After breakfast we rode the shuttle for about 40 minutes to the Post Office. We walked more than 7 miles getting Hard Rock Café guitar pin #6, going up to the 69 floor of Landmark Tower (Japan’s tallest building), through Nissan’s corporate headquarters, and Cosmo World (an amusement park with the largest ferris wheel, a water log ride, and a unique roller coaster plus many other rides). Yokohama is a beautiful city with many sky scrapers, more than ample road system, and fairly clean with friendly people. Jan is doing laundry again.
Tonight we’ll advance our clocks 1 hour. That will be 15 23-hour, 2 23 ½ - hour, and 1 25 hour days.
As long as we’re Japan’s territorial waters we can not use the internet. There been problems with the internet service much of the time, hence making it hard to update the blog.
We’ll arrive in Guam about 6:30A.M. Monday (3:30 P.M EDT Tuesday).
