Hello Tokyo

It has been a while since the three of us jetted overseas, yes we can't forget Clyde! After postponing the trip last year to take care of our sick furbaby we finally made it to Tokyo.

The flight was great, that could have been something to do with the free champagne that the crew kept forcing upon us. Oh the pressure. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner was an exquisite piece of machinery, lower cabin pressure and bigger windows = arriving more refreshed. Could have been the bubbles and the friendly, chatty crew too.

We had a great view of Guam on the way over and assume they were all a bit busy down there getting ready for whoever mischief that nutter from North Korea was planning. Lots of airbases on a little island...

And Narita greeted us with a stunning sunset...

We could have brought the Dagmeister with us as even the furry loved ones have a place to stay while visiting!

We got to the hotel in Shinjuku about 3 hours after landing as NRT is about the same distance from our neck of the woods as OOL is from BNE. Lucky they held the room for us following the flight cancellation and we were made to feel welcome. So, a really lovely way to start this well needed escape.

After a quick shower we went for a walk to get some traditional Japanese food before retiring after a busy day.  The Double Cheeseburgers, fries and Sprite were a perfect end to a great day.
