Flying into Tokyo

This trip to Japan has come around very quickly and as usual we procrastinated a bit too long getting things organised for it. Consequently we forgot about public holidays and our rail passes which should have arrived the day before we left didn’t turn up so we had a very early trip down to the main post office this morning to collect them. Australia post have some marvellous people working for them.

Anyway that drama aside we had a good flight down to Brisbane and a quick change over to our international flight. Customs and security were really busy this morning, just when we need to get through in a hurry. There is nothing fun about long haul flights just a necessary evil to get where you want to be.

Staying close to the airport tonight with a quick flight down to Osaka in the morning. Had our first Japanese meal here in the hotel, didn’t know what most of the stuff on the menu was, and weren’t any the wiser when it turned up, but most of it was delicious.Les mer
