Getting to Tokyo - Nov 18, 1963

(from Dad's missionary journal)

"November 18, 1963

Five of us with myself as group leader left Salt Lake City, Utah aboard a United Airline bound for San Francisco where we arrived at 7:33 a.m. We spent about four hours there and then boarded a Japan Airlines jet and headed West to Honolulu, Hawaii. We departed at 1:00 p.m. and enroute had lunch which included among other things, octopus, seaweed, and sweet beans. We arrived in Honolulu 4:00 p.m. and departed at 5:30 p.m. for Tokyo, Japan. We crossed the dateline and arrived at 8:30 p.m. Nov. 19 where we were greeted by (an) Elder to instruct us and show us arround Tokyo during our stay in the mission home, and Mission President Anderson and Sister Anderson."
