Good evening, everyone. Hope everyone's doing well. It feels good to be back home. My wife and I went to Japan for about a week and a half and had a fantastic time. I believe it was last Tuesday I checked in. I was checking in from Kenazawa, Japan. I just had a simple I.O. I didn't have a whole lot of time, but at the time we were walking around some back city streets and discovering different temples. And a lot of temples have cats. I don't know why. I just noticed a lot of temples have cats that just kind of hang out like little protectors. And they're adorable and they make great photo, photos, photo ops. I learned some things about traveling to Japan, especially about how to time your flights. When we flew to Japan, we left at 4 p.m. Seattle time, which is a good time to go because it's a 10 hour flight. And then when you land, it's like 7 p.m. Tokyo time. And you just have to stay up for a couple more hours and then you go to sleep. And you get a full night's sleep. You wake up in the morning and you're on Tokyo time. And it's not perfect, but it's probably the best long distance traveling time changeover that I've ever done. Way better than I have experienced going to Europe. However, on the way home, don't do that. You want to get the earliest morning flight you can because we did it wrong. We got the 4 p.m. flight out of Tokyo. And at that point you've been awake for about 10 hours. And then you have a 10 hour flight back to the U.S. We had a 4 hour layover in San Francisco. By the time we got home, we were basically awake for like close to 30 hours. That was not great. I'm still, today was like the first day that I was starting to feel half normal. I'm going to break for a second.
