First trip to Japan

Hello Everyone

Well on this coming Sunday I take my first trip to my new job on the touring show called Dralion. I will start integrating with them over the next two to three months and hopefully if all goes well by mid to late February I should be heading over to Tokyo to stay with the new tour. This upcoming trip is only for a little more than a week and I will start to get to know the show, some of the people there, and then will help them do their teardown in Nagoya see a map of Japan. After that I will come back to Mexico city where I will help Quidam do their prep for the move from here to Monterrey. I will participate in this transfer and then do the 2-1/2 week city run of Monterrey. At the end of Monterrey I will do the teardown there and help the tour move to Veracruz and then about 3-4 days into setup I should be able to leave. Hopefully if all works out and things are going well then I’ll fly to the US for about a week before flying over to join Dralion permanently. If things are going as well as hoped I might have to then come back for the teardown of Veracruz but I’m hoping to avoid that.

When I finally get back to Japan on my next trip I will this time be joining them for their second run in Tokyo. They call it Tokyo 2. I’ll do about a month with them there before we start the transfer to the last city in Japan, Fukuoka. After that the tour has what they call an “annual leave” and who knows where I’ll go for that or what I’ll be doing then. But the best of all news is that the next stop on the tour is Sydney Australia. Yep that is right I’m heading back down under and am totally excited. I had a great time the first time around and I just know that I’ll have an even better one next time. So if any of my Australian friends happen to be reading this please stand by for dates of when I’ll be coming to see you again :)

Please don’t let me downplay Japan at all because I am also really excited about going there as well. I should be in Japan for the b looming of the Cherry blossoms and I should have enough time off to hopefully explore a bunch of the country. I don’t know if I’ll do any diving while I’m over there as I’ll be really there trying to get to learn the show and get situated but you never know I might try and sneak away and get some of the new gear, that I’m about to purchase, wet.

If have time I’ll try and write again from Japan or at least when I get back to Mexico City.

I hope that you all have a safe and wonderful New Year’s Eve.

Talk to you soon
