May 7, 2024, Tuesday morning, 11:13am, eastern standard time, hotel lobby in Newark, New Jersey, USA. Today is the day of the Miku Expo concert. This is what we came to New Jersey for. I have to admit, this trip induced anxiety for months. I was worried about cost, logistics and missed work. But it has been a blessing to spend time with my daughter and to be away from familiar sights. I feel refreshed. I will be a little sad to leave tomorrow but I am thankful for the memories we are making.
