We're leaving on vacation on Thursday. Today it's packing, sweating in the heat, and making a cursory effort to cleanup the house. It'll be interesting to see how the new security guidelines work. The airlines still allow carry-on baggage on our flight from Osaka to Hawaii, so at least we'll have some books and toys to entertain my son. We've got two, count 'em, typhoons bearing down on Japan, but we should be up and away before they get here.
