今晩は

... meaning 'good evening' in Japanese.
I just arrived here in Tokyo and I have to say that the final descents to the airport was similar than touching down in Frankfurt. Many single houses spread all over the place with a good mix of farm land. Everything seems very organized and clean. The infrastructure is very decent and roads look actually bran new. Cars driving on the left side of the road and the power lines are identical to the ones in Germany. My picture of Japan was always those little Japanese houses in a typical shape... at least Tokyo seems to be different.

The airport impeccable clean and equipped with anything and everything. Still it's very quiet here on that Sunday evening. Most aircrafts here are 747-400's ... one more sign that ASIA has plenty of people to move. Having a wine in the Delta lounge now and waiting for my connecting flight to Saigon. Another 6.5 hours to go.
