It's been a hell of a week. Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea were both huge. I'm talking enormous here. As someone who'd never seen a Magic Kingdom-style park aside from the original Disneyland, the sheer enormity of the place was mind boggling. I kept remarking on the size of the castle, Adventureland was a lot more than a tiny street, Westernland seemed like a whole town! I even saw wasted space on Big Thunder! Anaheim can't afford that! And DisneySea? I die a little inside knowing Tokyo got that and we got California Adventure. They both opened in 2001! It's not like newer technology facilitated the creation of a better park! There's a three-deck cruise ship just sitting there for decoration, fer cryin' out loud! I need to calm down....

Wednesday we flew back home. Left Wednesday evening in Tokyo and arrived Wednesday morning in L.A. By my math, that day lasted 41 hours. I seemed to adap to the time change better than others, though. Nammy was still having trouble staying awake on Sunday, when by and large I was back to normal by Friday morning. Not much to report during those days, save for the fact we visited both Anaheim parks on Saturday, just so we could officially say we had been at four parks in two different countries in the same week.

Work this week hasn't been so bad, actually. The addition of another office assistant and a separate personal assistant has really made my job easier. We had to fire the office assistant today, though, so I'm looking for a replacement starting tomorrow!
