Alison,
I got home safe and sound last Wednesday, and have still had hard time adjusting back to Japan time
It was nice to hear your friendly voice over the phone, though it was short, while I was in KCMO. I'm already planning to get to KCMO around the same time next year. If "my travel budget" allows, I'll definitely stop in L.A. at the time and would like to meet you in person

Hope to read your post again soon.

Yasuko
