text: HW 11 - Southwest Passage
  Today we wake up early in the morning to drive down the coast and get the bike back before 12:30. Its like California's HW 1 we are told, so here it is, Japan's HW 11:
  This is the one time Joe let us have a break since we were short on time, so I hurried up in the bathroom
  and got out first to get this shot:
  Then, back on the scooter!
  Joe was kinda unimpressed since the road didn't wind around curves as much as in California, so we turned around after this point.
  (Always a different view on the way back.)
  We just barley made it back to the scooter place on time. The rest of the day we spent basking in our air conditioned private Japanese style room watching Castle and Burn Notice episodes and taking naps while the other used the internet.
  Then, Mochan emailed me back!
  Dear Vanessa (Rain),
  Thank you very much for sending me the e-mail.
  You are welcome to join our trip.
  It would be helpful to send e-mail via CS for me.
  I may not response you soon now, coz I am in PERU.
  And I will come back on 22th May.
  After that, I can send you back soon.
  By the way, which JHT are you guys thinking to join us?
  Let's enjoy together when you guys join it!
  Joe gave me the nod of approval, and I ran out to the nearest 7-11 and called customer service for our flight with EVA. They were extremely helpful, and quick about it. "Hi, can I switch my flight to the 25th from the 27th?" "Yes, do you want the same flight? There is one on the 25th leaving at the same time, with the same flight layout." "Yes, that is the one I want." "Okay, here is your flight number, and your conformation number:" and that was it. No money, no hassle, just leaving 2 days early for Tokyo! Amazing!
  For dinner we walked downtown back to this restaurant kiosk that Joe fell in love with where they make this cube omelet around a block of shredded cabbage and chicken with all sorts of sauces and vegetable toppings. To find this place, however, we had to wander through the streets downtown, get lost, then find it by accident just like last time.
