Wake Island (USA)

After a decent sleep, we checked out of the Outrigger Reef (1200L) and headed to the airport so we could continue our journey to the west.  Like we often do, our itinerary took us through Wake Island again. The airport had been closed for a long time so they could resurface the runway - it looked good! Our crew got Thai box lunches again - it's nice how things don't change quickly in the "relaxed" Pacific... After another relatively uneventful flight, arrived in Japan in the early evening.  We'll be doing some missions in the area for about a week so I got one of the nice rooms at the CBH on NAF Atsugi.  Met up with the crew for dinner and then crashed.
