As good as Sayonara
Well…my time in Japan is as good as over! I can’t quite believe it’s the last day. My bags are all packed, and my passport and airline tickets provide a constant reminder that for today, all roads lead to the airport, and away from Japan.
Much has happened these last 5 weeks. I’ve packed in so much it’s hard to know where to start to summarise it all. But I guess if you have read this far…you get the picture. Japan is a fantastic place. I’ve always wanted to visit but I really didn’t think it would be so good. There is so much to see and do…from the hustle, bustle and bright lights of Tokyo, to the more subdued and beautiful Miyajima; the contrast between the two is huge. I could easily spend another 3 weeks here..and then some.
Today we will head into Kobe and enjoy the final few hours of my time here in Japan. Won’t be doing a great deal really, probably sit around outside and enjoy the sunshine. My flight isn’t until 11.15pm so have at least a decent amount of time to spend in Kobe today. There’s even talk of more delicious Kobe beef!
But it’s not over yet – I still have Dubai to look forward to and have got plenty of activities planned for my short stay there. I had hoped to go to the Wild Wadi waterpark but I see that it’s closed for refurbishment. It’s also Ramadan but hopefully this won’t affect things too much.
So it’s time for me to sign off and head out! What a trip.
See you in Dubai!
