\n\nWe're back in Kyoto now. The 12 hours<\/span> on the plane from San Francisco to\nOsaka went pretty well; Anthony was a good<\/span> boy. Fumie presented him with some\nnew toys to play with, and with them time went by quickly.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nA long<\/span>-flight travel tip<\/b>: I had<\/span> ordered a special,<\/span> low-cal meal for\nthe flight. I need to<\/span> watch my weight, but the real reason I did<\/span> this is\nbecause (at least on United Airlines), ordering a special<\/span> mean means that\nyou get at the very start of meal service, well before others (up to half\nan hour before others, depending on where you're sitting). And at least<\/span> on\nUnited Airlines, the specialty meals are very good. Anyway, getting one\nmeal at first, then two later, is much easier than getting three at once. It leaves<\/span> one adult meal-free to be with Anthony if he's attention-needy,\nallowing the other to eat. It also gives<\/span> a wider<\/span> variety of food from which\nto pick things for Anthony.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nHaving arrived at 4PM local time (midnight California time), we stayed one\nnight in the airport hotel, leaving the two-hour drive to Kyoto for after\nsome sleep. The smoothness<\/span> of our trip was broken a bit<\/span> the next morning in\nthe shuttle van when Anthony unexpectedly threw up, but luckily he seemed\nokay (perhaps just overly tired), and we were able to get things cleaned up\nfairly well.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nArriving back at our place after two months away was a joy,<\/span> especially\nbecause we were able to leave it clean. It's so nice<\/span> to come home to a\nclean<\/span> house.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nA day of sleep later and we're back on track. Our next step<\/span> is to deal with\nall our luggage, and then I have<\/span> something like 10,000 photos to process. I'd better<\/span> hurry, because Fall in Kyoto is glorious.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nTo give a taste for Kyoto in the fall, here's one of my favorite pictures\nfrom last fall:<\/p>\n\n
