Jeremy > The OTT installation team waits in the World Club lounge in Detroit for the announcement that their flight to Narita, Japan is boarding. We will be staying at a Prince Hotel in Hanno, Japan, for 9 nights.

Jeremy > Oliver and I abandon the plush opulence of the lounge to photograph the fountain at Detroit's airport. I'll rapidly discover that the fountain is a perfect place to photograph people (and wildlife).

Jeremy > Oliver catches me photographing people through the fountain. Oliver shot this with a 10-22mm lens mounted on a Canon Digital Rebel. Pretty sharp for a hand-held indoor exposure, no?

Jeremy > Business class travel to Japan is a non-stop foodfest. Dinner begins with this appetizer of hummus and salmon salsa on crackers, and an assortment of nuts (which are refilled if you want).

Jeremy > Next is the salad and roll. I selected the Japanese dressing which is great.

Jeremy > You get a choice of entrees...this is the beef tenderloin with potatoes and vegetable. Other choices included chicken, fish, or a Japanese dinner in a Bento box.

Jeremy > Dessert was a chocolate lava cake with a scoop of ice cream. I selected a cordial to accompany it, but I didn't drink very much of it.

Jeremy > About six hours after dinner, the flight attendants will offer anyone who isn't sleeping a mid-flight snack. Oliver and I chose the pepperoni pizza.

Jeremy > Flying from the U.S. to Japan is most efficient via the Great Circle route which takes you far north into the Canadian and Alaskan Rockies. Vast stretches of snow-covered mountains and frozen rivers extend as far as the eye can see.
