Friday, April 17, 2026 We got tickets for a Disney music concert by the Minnesota Orchestra months ago. It was scheduled to have video to go with the music, without it being “just” a soundtrack to a movie. It sounded really good. Then After Hours Big Band (that Keith plays in) got an opportunity to […]
Thursday, April 16, 2026 I was expecting to work at a school closer to my donation site, so I had to fly out of school in record time to make it to the YMCA to donate blood. I made it right on time. It turned out that I was the last person scheduled for the

Tuesday, April 14, 2026 We had a dinner and game night at the Wickerts. We bought a new game – Mickey Waffle Towers – at Disneyland and we took it along to play. The directions are in Japanese. Keith used his phone to translate. The translations were…not very clear. Kind of hilariously not clear. We
Monday, April 13, 2026 Alexander suggested we meet for ramen – for Japan memories and because he is a big fan – to recap the trip. It was confirmed. Alexander would have really liked eating in Japan. Meat, fish, noodles, and no veggies is his favorite way to go. He followed us home, and he

Saturday, April 11. 2026 Today was a hilariously sleepy day. I was awake from 2:30 – 5:15am. I finally got up and got my audiobook and it put me right to sleep. I woke up at 7:30am just in time to hear the end of my murder trial book – it was SO grim! The
Friday, April 10, 2026 Ending the trip at Tokyo Disney Resort was a great idea, not only because it was a bit of a departure from “real” Japan, but because there was a great bus transfer to the airport. We had unknown amounts left on our IC cards (subway passes) that we could use at
Thursday, April 9 2026 I originally wanted three days at DisneySea and only one day at Disneyland. I had heard that DisneySea is awesome (it is) and that it is huge (it is) and that it is the only park of its kind in the world (it is), so I didn’t want to miss out

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 We got to DisneySea 30 minutes earlier than we did on Monday, expecting to be rewarded with shorter lines queued up for security and entry (it took 90 minutes Monday. We were not fans of that) The lines were nearly twice as long as Monday!!! It turns out today was the
