Hey Everybody!
I have been finding it kind of hard to find time to write an entry just because of how busy the chaperones are keeping us and how tired I am.
My first plane ride in a very long time was good... a little scary taking off, but fun none the less.
I met 2 fellow delegates when I got to Dulles International Airport and together we got on the plane to Seattle.
I sat next to someone who was from the area and he was able to show me Mt. St.Helen's, Mt. Rainer, and the Space Needle from a birds' eye view.
Once we landed in Washington St., I finally got to meet my chaperone, Mary Frances.
We had to wait about 3 hours for the others to arrive so that gave me time to get a bite to eat.
After a short orientation at the hotel I was off to the mall with a couple of my new friends. We ate at the Rainforest Cafe. It was so cool! Check out the website to see what I mean.
I was the first one to hit the pillow tonight... I was exhausted!
Today, at 10am we have to be at the airport again to get ready for our 10 hour flight to Tokyo!
I am very,very, very excited about getting to Japan, I am just not too thrilled about the amount of time I have to spend on the plane.
I am having a great time, it definitely is an adventure!
Thank you for reading my blog!
Once I get to Japan I will get some pictures up!
I love you all!

Glad your having a GREAT time!
Love the title to your blog!
Looks like you're having a great time. Thanks for letting us tag along.
So cool, Sarah! You are either just in flight or about to fly as I write this, I am going to say a prayer now.
We are so excited for you and we love you SO much...

Hi Sarah, I miss you a lot. Say hi to Tomo for me will you please? Hope you have a great time! From Grace
You sound so cheesy.
That was from Jennie, btw.
I am wide awake here (1053p Thu, Graham NC time) and thinking about you still on the plane. I hope you've found time to rest. I can only imagine how tired you must be. And in just a few short hours your Friday will be mostly over - WOW!
We're not at Family Camp. Reade's team won again tonight and play in the championships tomorrow night - how cool!
Rebekah Annie is learning cursive. We're going to see if she can learn to write your name before hers. Hers is looong...
What else? I think ducks are very stinky animals. It's a good thing God made the cute.
The kids have also decided we can have no sitters until you come home. I may lose my mind. So you get home on August 7. I will give you two days off. Can you be here at 5p, August 9? ;-)
you are coming!!!
yaaaaaaaay:)

-ur sissy:)
Your feet are planted on Japanese soil! WooHoo! Can't wait to read your next update. Have a safe night in Tokyo. Your mom says your staying in a former Olympic site - SO cool!
Love,
Patty & Posse
We are really enjoying the opportunity to take the trip with you via your blog. Keep having fun. Matt, Meg & boys.
Hoping you're near Nara soon!
Tonight while driving home from Reade's ball game (his team won the championship, btw!) I noticed that Rebekah Annie's "BFF" jibbet was in my dash. I aksed her why she took it off and if she would like me to put it back on. Her reply?
"Nope. Sarah's not here. I will put it back on when my best friend is back. It won't be long."
WOW! How cool is that? At least to a mommy it is cool!
MUCH LOVE!
Patty & Posse
