japan day 7

today we woke up at 9am and all went for breakfast at the cafe.

last night i forgot to mention how awesome the weather is here at misawa.
it's in the 70's in the day maybe, but at night 60's! such a relief from the 90% humidity that okinawa had for us.

anyways after breakfast- josh, zach, missy, joel, kyle and i all took a walk around base and to the bx.
i found some killer hot pink and black adidas sneakers for half off and some cool souvenirs. the boys got new psp games and other boy things.

after that we walked back and got ready for a sound check.
our van came to get us around 12 and we went to the venue to check it out.
it was very nice...it even had chandlers!

we had a nice lunch there then got our pa and equipment set up and did a sound check.
i think we were all a bit delirious and tired but that wasn't stopping us.
the girls and i ran to the bx to get some last minute make up for the show (no tax rocks) and then headed back to the hotel to get ready for the show.

we all met up at 6:30 and got to the venue for an awesome asian buffet dinner complete with sushi and ramon noodles made to order. it was perfect.

the show started at 8 and the crowd was small but mighty. we had a great time. the people on misawa were super cool and loved the show.

tomorrow is a 11:30am lobby call and we have a flight to camp fuji were we actually have a show tomorrow night at 7:30. it will be a very busy day i know!

pray this room has internet- because it's hard to get into these wifi hot spots so late at night when all i want to do is sleep.

japan day 6

today we woke up at 9am and did some laundry, packed and checked out of our beautiful hotel at 11am.

1 hour bus ride to naha airport. 2 hour flight to tokyo. 1 hour flight to misawa air force base. finally landed around 7pm. the airport had one terminal and was tiny! all of our luggage took up the whole carousel.

we then loaded all of our stuff into four small vans, because the 2 ton trucks keys were m.i.a.

since the airstrip was like on base, we literally only had to drive for like 5 mins to our hotel.

the place is really nice, we have a kitchen with a oven, microwave, full size fridge, queen bed, living room with a love seat and pull out sofa... but no internet so we are at this 24 hour cafe on base, because its memorial day and nothing else is opened.

tomorrow is 12pm lobby call for practice and sound check. show at 8pm.

pictures to come tomorrow because i dont have the camera cord here.

last show at camp schwab...

before heather from one of the camps culinary institute made us an amazing authentic okinawa dinner. we had some great sushi, little hello kitty vienna sausages, teriyaki
chicken, taco rice, lo mein, soup, and some awesome green tea kit kats with a heart gelatin for desert.


the show went pretty well. erin's voice still isn't all of the way back but she is a trooper. the crowd was a little less rowdy tonight- more families and ladies...so that was nice.

it was misting most of the show until it stopped and it was horribly humid and we all wanted to pass out.
