Domo Arigato!
Woohoo! This sure warrants a second update today!!
My boss pulled my group into a conference room for a meeting yesterday. They told us all to rush-order passports (I already have one, woohoo!) Because they're sending us all to JAPAN for a week!!! I'm SO excited. They said they'd take us sometime in April, details to follow.
I'm SO excited!!!!Then I asked him today about bringing Jeff along. He said Jeff is welcome to come (on our own money, of course.) However, my supervisor said he'd probably get bored. He said that our days over there will be long, and I'll be with the Weathernews people almost all day. He said just about the only time we'd see each other is when I went back to the hotel to sleep. He made it sound like we wouldn't really have time to do any of our own sight-seeing, because we'd be gone from morning until after dinner time every day. That's so sad, we wouldn't even get to have dinners together! But maybe I'm just imagining a worst case scenario, I guess I'll know more when I get an actual itinerary.
He did say that they try to give you 1 day off while you're over there, so we'd basically have 1 day to sight-see together.
So, I don't know what to do now!! I would LOVE to have him along. A 12 hour flight each way will get lonely! haha It just depends if he feels comfortable sight-seeing by himself while I work? I don't know if its worth it.
But I do know that if Jeff were going somewhere exciting on a business trip, I'd want to come along, even if I was going to have a lot of down time! But, we looked at flights and it looks like its about $1000 or so. That's a lot of money for him to spend 6 days sitting in a hotel room halfway across the world!! ha.
