the duty free section of Los Angeles airport. (The duty free is at
Terminal 2).

DATE: AUGUST 19, 2014

Dear saki, thank you for your message. Glad to hear from you.

First of all, you have to arrive an hour before the departure train, after leaving the train, you take a bus to
Narita International Airport, the journey to the airport is very long, you can take your mp3 to listen to music,
I recommend that you carry your passport in your hand when you are at the airport.
The trip from Yokohama to Los Angeles is very long and boring, since you have to cross half the world, it
is a good idea to travel at night, also if you travel at night you arrive in Los Angeles in the morning. In the
morning you can see how the plane is flown over the mountains, you can also go shopping in the duty free
duty free session at Central 2.
The Bogotá gate is terminal 5, you can go by bus or on foot. You must be focused. You don't take the
wrong door. The sign above the door says terminal 5.
If you travel by bus it will take you 15 minutes while on foot it will take you 35 minutes, if you prefer to walk
you will have to do it from terminal 2 to terminal 5, it is about 35 minutes, on foot the path will be very
relaxing and interesting but it can't be late, don't forget.
You will arrive here around the afternoon hours. Now I work in the afternoon, I love to work throughout the
afternoon, so I can't go to meet you, the airport is far from the office, during your stay at the airport you
have to go through immigration and then go to the instance section, ask for a safe taxi at the special points
and the next one when leaving the airport.
After what you get in the taxi, in the taxi tells you when driving that you should drive downtown. He gives
my address to the driver and the taxi comes towards my house. Now in my house there are many trees,
they were planted along the street. There are beautiful palm trees along the avenue. I live nearby, you wait
for me. We can talk at dinner throughout your trip, get along really well and trust each other.
Best wishes, see you soon dear Saki.
