More places I've been

My travels have added a few locations to my list. I'm not counting locations I've transited through - my criteria is that I must have left the airport for at least an hour.

Tokyo or Bust

Well, the first leg of the journey is over. After a long flight punctuated only by occasional food and two Japanese movies which I was not inclined to watch, Andrew and I arrived in one piece with all luggage intact. My friend Simon's instructions for getting to our hotel were flawless and in short order we were checked in and online.

So far we haven't seen much, although I enjoyed a nice beef+rice dish while catching up with Simon. We'll hopefully get some good pictures tomorrow. Until then, sionara.

Slow motion

Today, this blog has officially been re-christened as "David In Motion". Don't take this to mean that posts will be any more frequent, but at least it gives me somewhere to go with it.

While I'm here though, the whole Ethiopia/Somalia war seems to have resolved itself rather more quickly than I had expected. Although "resolved" is probably too strong a word. Here's hoping it doesn't turn into another Iraq-scale conflagration...
