This morning my family and I started the day with excited feeling. Today was the day when my Japanese friends would arrive at our local airport.
Around 11 am, I checked their flight status. It showed their flight had arrived on time in San Francisco airport. All of a sudden, I could visualize them walking in the airport. They looked tired but at the same time they were so excited to see us again. Just visualizing them in my mind made me so happy. I started crying, even though they had not arrived here yet.
Around 2 pm, my daughter and I left our house to the airport to pick them up. Normally it takes me one hour and thirty minutes’ drive to get there, but today everything went so smoothly that it took less than one hour.
We arrived at the airport thirty minutes before their flight’s arrival time. My daughter and I were so excited that we could not sit still. We ended up walking around in the airport back and forth.
Every time I see my friends, I shed tears with happiness. Since I already cried this afternoon, I was hoping I would be able to welcome them without tears. I talked to myself secretly not to cry.
Their flight arrived eight minutes later than the scheduled arrival time.
When I saw them coming down the escalator toward us, I could not hold my tears. I started crying. I was so happy to see them again.
I am glad they arrived here safely.
After we ate dinner together, five of us went for a walk in the neighborhood area. This walk should be beneficial for them to get used to this land’s energy and ground themselves from the long flights.
