Going Home and Sumo!

What do they have to do with each other? Absolutely nothing.

First off, once again, I am back at the NW Lounge in Narita. I like this place. The food is really good and the place is quiet and clean. Much better than the older lounge on the other side of the terminal.

I’ll be coming home on Saturday night and I will be in the US until Friday when I fly out again this time for 2 weeks. Ugh. Trust me. I don’t like to do it but I did so what can I do?

On a different note, I don’t really know how he did it but the new guy here in Japan managed to get us seats at the current sumo tournament going on in Tokyo. Not just any seats but the box seats by the ring! They are typically not for sale to the general public! Lucky me :)

So, here is a kick ass shot of the end of the final match between the current champion, Asashoryu, flipping over a considerably bigger opponent, Miyabiyama. However, Asashoryu is still one win behind the #2 guy Hakuho. Oh the drama.

This is with my point and click and with zoom and from near the back of the reserve seats with low light… but still, came out pretty good huh? :)

Now to get on my flight. Fun times…fun times…
