came back
Yesterday evening I have arrived at Tokyo and now I am fully in jet lag, but I am OK. Thank you so much for your kind comments and I have enjoyed my once-a-year precious vacation...it flied by, as usual.
Now, let me tell you about my gifts. The gift for MIL got a perfect fit for her:

It of course made me very happy....but you do remember my sock for FIL in question. I have just turned the heel of the first when I left, and I secretly diligently worked after arrival, as planned. I put kind of my knitting "turbo" on, so miraculously I reached the toe-grafting at the end of the day, started the second sock the next day, and finished it the day after. It was actually my record to finish a sock only for two days. Look!

I took this photo, wrapped it, and gave it to FIL, at the same time when I gave the tank above to MIL. It fits too:

He was so glad and me too!
Now, I have to report my Phildar visit, but I am so sleepy now...let me tell you next time about it, please....
