Short Notice

We have airplane tickets to fly to Tokyo next (!) week...that were only booked last week. Highflyer and I had actually planned to travel to Japan (he has never been, I have not been for almost 10 years) last year, but his leave from work was not approved. Until very recently it looked as if the same would happen this year, but then he got last-minute approval for a week (we were hoping for a little longer). Short, but sweet, but I am thankful all the same and have already booked all the hotels and our Japan Rail Pass. I had almost given up hope that we'd be able to fly this year and was already thinking of a plan B for my already approved June leave (that I now only needed 3 days of). Excitement is real and unlike my husband who is only too happy to leave this to me I LOVE planning travel itineraries and booking hotels and activities. Funnily enough, I am not much of a planner when it comes to other things, but I clearly must have been a travel agent in a previous life...
