Saturday: Mad YGO trading. Reminded Fee to go to sleep early ^_^

Sunday: Wake up at 6 AM AUGH. Get over to Fee's at 7 and no parking at her apartment T_T. So we drove to a different parking lot and she took me to the airport from there. Such a sweet Fee. Got the A waiting list and I was napping the whole time with my MP3 player chock full of H!P. Arrived at OAK with no difficulties and Rob was there with Liddo and Sarah to pick me up. Rob got us lost on the way to Japantown with about 4-5 U turns but finally we got to the parking lot and we got the best parking spot ever. Right next to the exit and street. I went to check out the area and found out that Tak and Ray were both at the far end of the center where the parade would start so wouldn't be seeing them for a an hour or so. So we all went to have a nice cozy lunch a Misume, one of liddo's fav restaurants. I had a nice bowl of udon and sashimi. Almost as yummy as liddos. Afterwards I went to check out the stage venue and the speakers were a bit outdated but it was a nice open area with plenty of seats. I estimate 200-300 seats with maybe 500 standing room. The girls just finished rehearsal at Stanford and came on over. They had suboptimal parking initially but fixed that later. The parade was just ending and we got the hook ups for all of the equipment ready. The girls were all in costume. Liddos went to get some shaved ice with Sarah. It was a nice bright day and so they did all the costume judging announcements first so the girls got a breather and the performance was pushed back to 3:30 ish. We performed Koi wo Shichaimashita, RNR did a piece from Spirited Away and Smash Bros, and then Renai Sentai Shitsuranger. Everything went off well and Al took pictures of us afterwards. My photos were cut short due to an interview with a Japanese professor of music *_*. So nice to talk to. Got her business card so I hope to hear from her soon. She was up to date on all things Morning Musume. After the performance we all changed out. I retrieved our CD from Japan Video and they had cute plushies and Pocky waiting for us. So nice of them. Kim got an Inuyasha plushy and Mich got Sesshoumaru. I got a chobits rabbit plushy that I subsequently tempted and ended up giving to liddos. She hearts. I gave my .hack keychain to Mich cos I know she'd appreciate it. Dueled with Rob x 2, one with zombie, and one with my proxy Exodia deck. I think I want to build a real Exodia deck now. Horrible. A section of girls went to get food and the others went to have a Death Note photoshoot. 6 PM rapidly approached so Amikins took Hikkles and I back to the airport. There was a wince of traffic but we got there on time. An uneventful flight home and I still had my luggage! Fee picked me up and off to home I went.
