Same as yesterday. Still not as weak as I was before (and I’m very glad of that), but no improvement otherwise. I’ve spent the day reading Across China. It’s not quite Thailand, but at least it’s Asia. Fascinating stuff. I wish there were more books on Thailand. It seems unbelievable that I’ll actually be there in just five months. It’s like a dream, surreal and misty in the future. I’m looking forward to the layover in Tokyo. Hopefully it’s more than just a few minutes; I’d like to look around. Ideally we’d get stuck there for a day or two. What am I saying? I’ve never hoped for a long layover in my life! Besides, I don’t know if I’d be able to leave the airport. I probably wouldn’t want to, if the layover is just an hour or two. The plane might leave without me.
