GSE Team enroute

Monday, February 21, 2010
Tokyo (Narita International Airport)

After traveling 18 hours we have arrived at Tokyo. Now a three hour layover, the seven more hours of flying and we will arrive in Bangkok. We're almost there!

So far the flight has been uneventul, however we had the unexpected good fortune of flying by way of the polar route. This took us over several hundred miles of breathtaking scenery as we passed over the Canadian Rockies and Alaska. Snow-capped mountain poeaks pointed jagged fingers at us as we soard above them. The route then took us over the Aleutian Islands and the western coast of Siberia (which, unfortunately) was shrouded in dense cloud cover. We then followed this path to Tokyo.

Now for a few houurs here to freshen up, then on to Bangkok.
