Chasing the Sun ...

Trenton left the MTC on Monday the 5th of August around 1:00 PM.  He called home and spent an hour talking to the family and then flew to Los Angels.  He then boarded Delta flight 637 for Tokyo.  He left around 8:15 PM (7:15 PM-PDT) and arrived in Japan a little before 7:30 AM (Tuesday, Aug 6th @ 10:30 PM JT) on the 6th.  This image of his flight path was taken around 2:00 AM on the morning of the 6th in Riverton.  

 On this day, Trenton started his flight as the sun was setting and chased the sun all the way to Japan, we believe the sun finally went down about half way through the 11+ hour flight, call it a 6 hour sunset.
