Bingo! For the first time, Emily didn't cry when I took her to daycare. In fact she walked straight in like she owned the place and made a beeline for a Thomas model. If she cried when I left, I didn't hear it. Neither did she get upset when I arrived to pick her up. It sounded like she had a lot of fun, and they were impressed at her Japanese comprehension. A pity she won't be going for 5 weeks now as I expect she will revert to crying for the first few times on our return.
As for me, I spent the afternoon trekking out to Tsukuba and back to collect my mislaid mobile phone. I must have read nearly a whole issue of the Economist, though not much sank in as my head was full of thoughts of the flight home.
Not surprisingly, Nick called to say he would be late home, so I was really glad I'd done most of the packing Thursday night and only had odds and ends still to do.
