We departed SFO at about noon 7 June on ANA flight 7 bound for Narita airport Japan. We had reserved Premium Coach seats, which are just like business class seats, but not the upscale food selections. The seats have lots of room and recline fully, so you can sleep if you want. Since it was normal awake time, I watched 2 movies, "From Paris with Love" and "Eli's Book". Usint my new QuietComfort 15 noise-canceling headphones, I could enjoy the movies without any background noise. They worked like a charm. After that, I read an interesting science fiction novel, "Spook Country" by William Gibson. He developed several concepts that are just beginning to be possible, geo-hacking as an art form (like enhanced reality available on iPhones) and espionage using very high-tech equipment. It was a good read.
We were upgraded to full Business Class, so had two excellent Japanese meals. Since ANA is a real Japanese airline, the food was authentic and delicious, and served quite elegantly.
We arrived about 4 pm 8 June at Narita (midnight Pacific), and took the Airport Limousine to the Tokyo Sheraton Miyako Hotel (in Minato-ku). It's a luxury hotel, very nice rooms and service, several restaurants and Internet. I just had a warm relaxing bath and crawled into bed and went to sleep in the king-size bed.
