Most of you didn't get to see what the blog looked like when I created it, but over the past few days, I've revamped the layout to make it a little more personal. It now has a sort of wintry theme, and I added in the polaroids using pictures I took on our last trip to Japan. If anything doesn't look quite right to you, let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it.
For those of you interested or curious, this time around, we will be 14 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time. (So just add two hours to the current time and change AM to PM or vice versa. 12:26am becomes 2:26pm, for example). However, there's one little exception. On March 14th, the US observes the start of Daylight Savings Time. Japan doesn't observe it, so from March 14th to the 17th, we will only be 13 hours ahead. I'll see if maybe I can somehow add a little Japan clock to the blog to make things easier. In the mean time, join us in our countdown to takeoff -- only 14 (almost 13) days left to go!
