Today is it for me. No more wandering days in Tokyo putting on miles and calluses. I ended up walking about 5 hours a day and last night my feet and body felt it. Slept pretty well; but it gets light early here in Japan so I woke up thinking it was around 7am but it was only 5. Got back to sleep for 2 hours. This afternoon around 1pm I’ll catch the airport limousine for 3000 yen back to Narita. Then into the friendly skies and back to SFO. This flight takes about 8.5 hours so its not so bad compared to the 15 hours from Singapore.
Things I got accomplished this trip:
- Got to see a bunch of Tokyo and learned basics about the subway lines here.
- Learned an easy way to plan out a day of activities and how to effectively tourist in Tokyo.
- Redid the friendship with a few places I had been before; notably the Emperor’s Palace and the Lion Beerhall.
- Got to see and meet and eat with Jay. That was one of the bright spots. Don’t even mention we had burritos
- Figured out I truly love Japan and want to come back.
But now, in a few hours, it all ends. Its the day of changes and move backs. Thanks for reading along. I’m sure to be here again but it will never be like this time.
