Did I bring the typhoon from Japan?
I am back in Seattle, safe and sound.

I have finished the first leg of my trip back to Seattle. I am at Narita Airport. On the way here from Osaka, I saw an island with big volcano in the middle. It was really a fantastic view. I am trying to find the name of the island now.

EXCHANGE RATE

9月

29日

I have a business trip to Japan starting tomorrow. The current exchange rate is about 90 Yen to US$1. Yen is very strong. This makes a can of Coke (120 yen) $1.33 equivalent. Hotel (New Otani, Tokyo) is about $255 which is not bad compared to hotels in New York.

Our company watch exchange rate very carefully because over 50% of revenue comes in Japanese yen. Higher Yen is not good for may travel, but it is good for my company.
