Visitor!

I have a visitor with me for a few days from Japan. She first went to visit the rest of my family, and then flew up to see me =-). My friend-retrieval skills are seriously lacking when it comes to airports =-(. When my super-wonderful pal was out in July I was eagerly waiting for her at what turned out to be the wrong gate =-(. We later met up in baggage claim. And with this guest I rushed to the gate.....and again it was the wrong one. Yes, I am an airport-guest-picker-upper-incompetent-jackass! I found her baggage carousel and rushed down - but she wasn't there, however there was a guy I had met recently who was waiting for his bags from a different flight, which is really random, so we chatted for a bit. Luckily he saw me first, so he can't accuse me of being a stalker =-p. He's kinda cute though, so I'm glad I had bothered to groom - haha =-p.

Anyways - I worriedly trekked up and down the escalators, and even stopped and asked some folks what flight they had been on.....and finally she came breezing toward the baggage area (as I was on the phone to my Mom asking if she had even checked a bag and what she was wearing). So now I have my Japanese penpal here for what will hopefully be a lovely visit, and the weight of the tourism world is on my shoulders as it is my responsibility to make sure she sees some good stuff =-).
