I already wrote out one post but hit some key wrong I guess, because all the text was Chinese after that. Since the vast majority of my readership does not speak Chinese, I thought it better to start over. Arigato. That's Japanese, but most of you wouldn't know that. I also am not wearing my glasses so probably can't really tell if this is in Chinese or not.

The flight was uneventful--a little turbulence on take off and landing, but not much else. The plane was barely a third full so it was pretty comfy. This was a smaller plane anyway and there was quite a bit more "seat" space, if you know what I mean. I listened to a NPR podcast on my iPod and the time went really quickly.

I think most people I'm here with will want to go to the Mall of America this afternoon, but it's going to be kind of a challenge to get there from downtown. Take the number 18 bus to here, then transfer to the Light Rail, make sure you get a transfer, then go here blah...blah...blah..... Not something I like so much....

Time for a nap.
