Hi VJers, Finally arrived in my new home, USA! :) I had a long flight but it's worth it. I can't explain the feeling of seeing my fiance waiting behind those doors for me and smiling. Such a nice sight to see. It's priceless!

I had 4 hours layover in Narita and flew with Delta. I feel proud seeing and talking to Filipinos who are working at the Immigrations and Customs at San Francisco Airport. The POE went smoothly. He just asked me what is the purpose of my visit, when do we plan to get married and if my fiance is a good guy? Then opened my packet and told me i have until December 12 to get married or else I need to leave. And then that's it! I got in! :) At the customs, the Filipino personnel asked me what foods do i have and i said dried mangoes, banana chips and korniks. And then he asked, no MAGIC SARAP and Lucky Me Pancit Canton? hehehe!

Anyway, weather is good here in San Francisco and I am loving it. Thanks to everyone who prayed and wish for my safe trip. Hope everyone gets to see the beauty of the people and USA itself. God Bless America!

Welcome to the USA, and congratulations.

You can easily BUY it here, you just can't BRING it with you from overseas. Makes no sense, but the immigration control is very strict. So don't worry, you can even buy it on Amazon here in the US! :)
