The 1st Station: 40 hours of traveling

Meditation:

Favio, Eric and Eddie embark on their much anticipated trip to Japan! We start off our trip with 40 hours worth of travelling. The drive to Houston went off without incident, then we went through a 14 hour flight to Beijing. The flight was so full of turbulence it was ridiculous, but we'd all gone to confession beforehand, so we weren't too worried. Once we arrived, we had a 4 hour layover before our flight to Tokyo. Once there, we took the Shinkansen (bullet train) straight to Kyoto, which took another three hours. Finally we arrived in our destination
