No worries, we all appreciate the heavy lifting you're likely doing on the ground!

Great stuff.

The Performance & Royal Dinner most likely will change to Tuesday the 18th. If so, I will flip Tuesday's evening for Monday. But the rest should be ok.

Blast. I'm headed back to NRT the night of the 18th since my flight back to the US is early on the 19th.

Thanks for the great programme. The Japan Do organisers had better get their act together!
