4am Mariusz rolls up at our door... Its going to be a long day! 
Today we have a 9:45am flight from Warsaw and we make the 2 hour journey to Warsaw in good time. Then we hit major traffic, which we did 2km in 45mins and it was still 15km to the airport and we strated to get tense. We ran to check in, it had closed! Ahh, i felt terrible. It is the only flight any of us had ever missed and the women on the desk said that we can't gon tommorows flight because it was full but the day after was ok, not for us as we would miss our short programme. So sounding very sheepish i phoned my mum to book us 3 new return flights, thank you mum!

The new flight was a good one, we had the Italian, German and Ukrainian squads on the flight so had people to chat to. We arrived midday a day later and feeling a little tired, but the Tokyo skyline woke us up. What a city, it's the third time we've been here in three years and it still amazes me. Our hotel is very grand too, right in the upscale Shinjuku banking district but unfortunately very little time to explore. After all it is just a business trip! First practice and business is going well! A good practice and still on a boost from last weeks win in Zagreb, which also had given us enough ISU points to put us in the top group, our job now is to stay there.
