Well the time has come for the Unit Blue to set foot on United States soil. We have been waiting for this day actually since we started the whole blue planet run. Most of us knew we would make it back to the United States eventually but having made it through 15 countries in two months is a real accomplishment on foot. During my flight from Japan to San Francisco I slept 8 hours out of 9:40. For me it is never a problem to sleep anywhere especially on flights. When we arrived and was greeted by the wonderful Ignition staff we were asked if we had jet lag. Our response was yes for the past two months. Most people don’t realize that when you change shifts every 4 days you never settle into a normal sleeping pattern. So the rest on the plane was well needed by all of us. Once we arrived and was whisked off to the hotel which was 90 minutes away I went straight to the grocery store to buy some food that I new I could eat and liked. I think Will Dobbie and I had talked more about what we were going to eat for the past week then we could convey to the average human being. I think the just the idea of being able to walk into a store, buy something for yourself and then be able to read what the signs say was almost more exciting then eating would end up being. As soon as we walked out of the store we started eating at the van. I know this sounds pretty sad since we did not wait but we had been waiting for weeks and the time to eat was now. It is good to be on United States soil!
