October 6 and 7 Travel Day from Pittsburgh PA USA to Osaka JAPAN

ピッツバーグのホテルから、朝5時半発のシャトルに乗って、空港へ。あつこ、りさちゃん、きらちゃんと私は、7時20分発のダラス行きに乗る。ダラスでりさちゃんと私は成田行き、あつこときらちゃんは、Los Angeles行きに搭乗予定。朝早いにも関わらず、みよこさんが空港まで送ってくれはった。その後、午前11時にみよこさんはクルーとツアーバンでバッファローまで帰る予定。まだ暗い空港で荷物をチェックインしてセキュリティー通過。

We took a hotel shuttle to Pittsburgh airport at 5:30am. Atsuko, Risa, Kira and I take a flight to Dallas at 7:20am. Risa and I transfer to Narita airport from Dallas. Atsuko and Kira take a flight to Los Angeles. It was very early in the morning but Miyoko took us to Pittsburgh airport. Miyoko and the crew will go back to Buffalo in the van at 11am. We checked in and went through the security at the airport. It was still dark outside.

お腹が空いていたので、4人で空港内のマクドナルドへ。朝食メニューからベーグルサンドのセットを買って機内で食べた。2時間半のフライトでダラスのフォートワース空港着。あまり寝なくて、ゲームしてた。

All of us were hungry and went to McDonald’s at the airport. I bought bagel sandwich set and ate it in the airplane. After 2 hours and a half flight, we arrived at Dallas Fort Worth airport. I could not sleep in the airplane but played iPad game.

フォートワース空港であつこ、きらちゃんとお別れ。りさちゃんと二人、シャトルで乗り換えゲートへ。

I said good bye to Atsuko and Kira at the DFW. Risa and I took a shuttle to our transfer gate.

広い空港だけどわかりやすい造りになっている。

DFW airport is very huge but simple and easy to transfer.

広い。Huge.

楕円形の造りで、駐車場も巨大な楕円。

It’s oval shape. Parking shapes oval.

乗り継ぎ~。Transfer.

機内食1回目、牛肉とごはん。うーむ。

The first flight meal was beef and rice. The taste? Hmm…

機内食2回目。サンドイッチとアイスクリーム。アイスクリームのみ食べて、サンドイッチは持ち帰り。

The second meal was sandwich and ice cream. I ate ice cream only and took sandwich with me.

機内食3回目、パッタイ。比較的おいしかったので、完食。

映画を見かけては寝て、というのを3回ぐらい繰り返してやっと成田空港着。成田空港で機内食のサンドイッチを食べた。成田から伊丹の飛行機に、車椅子テニスの上地結衣選手が乗ってはった。

 1時間弱のフライトで無事、夕方に伊丹空港着。空港で気づいたけど、日本のトイレットペーパーって幅が広くて使いやすい事に気づいた。

The 3rd meal was Pad Thai. It was tasty and I ate everything.

I tried to watch movie but fell in sleep. I repeated this 3 times and arrived at Tokyo Narita airport safely. I ate the sandwich from the flight meal at the airport. You Kamiji who is a wheelchair tennis player was in the same airplane with me.

We arrived at Osaka Itami airport safely after 50min flight. It was around 6pm. I noticed that the width of toilet rolls in Japan are wider than North American ones. It’s easy to use for me.

帰宅した翌日、玉子丼が食べたくて作った。ほっこりするわ〜。

I wanted to eat Tamago Don, egg bowl, and made it one day after I came home. I got relaxed.

たこ焼きも食べたくなって買ってたべた。おいしい。

I also wanted to eat Takoyaki, octopus pancake balls, and went to buy it. So yum.
