"I'm Home!"

Last week Kitto and his friend Nick retuned to America after a l0-day stay here. Their flight left Narita International Airport at 7 P.M. The next morning around 7 A.M. the phone rang: "Hi Grama!" "Where are you?" I mustered. He answered, "In America. I'm home!"

Just 12 hours. A far cry from when Mom and Dad got my first hand-written-from-Japan letter and Mom wrote, "Now it doesn't seem like you're so far away when we could get a letter in 5 days!"
