Sayonara Nippon

Today began with a big sleep-in and lazing around our room until our wonderful 12 o'clock checkout.

When we finally had to leave, we left our suitcases with reception and went for a wander. We explored a nearby shopping district and melted in the hot sun before realizing that, even though we ate enough food for eight people yesterday, we were still hungry for lunch. For our final Japanese meal, we decided on yakiniku again, where you grill meat at your booth.

We savored every bite before heading out again and walking past a café with shaded outdoor seating, so we stopped in for coffee and a tasty bit of cake.

Eventually, we realized it was time to head back, so we picked up our suitcases and jumped on the hour-long bus ride to Narita Airport.

Naturally, we decided to eat more food, Michelin starred tempura and Okonomiyaki, which felt like a full-circle moment, as that’s what we had for our first dinner.

That leads to now, us sitting at our terminal waiting to board.

So that’s it for us in Japan. Thank you all for following our journey, and we’ll see y’all soon!
