First Day in Japan~

18/7/2018

After we made it through Narita airport in Japan. I was still feeling excited after the long flight but I was really tired and hot all I wanted at that moment was some nice food, a cold shower and some sleep. Of course things don't go to plan when we need it to. We spent quite a few hours going up flights of stairs and it started to get dark before we knew it.

We made it into Takadanobaba and looked for our house that was supposed to be close to the station, but like I said earlier things don't always go to plan so we ended up wandering around for another couple of hours because the house was 15 minutes from the station... in the other direction. When we did end up making it to "our" house  it ended up being an old man's apartment who seemed quite nice... if he hadn't been disturbed so late at night making him ever so politely yell "Nani?!!!" scaring us away and confirming that was not the place we were resting for the night.

We eventually made it to our actual house that was a couple blocks away from the old man's apartment and our first meal/dinner in Japan was at a convenience store. The house that we all looked forward to resting in and sleeping in our own beds ended up being an apartment on top of the fancy place we had dinner at was a small lounge with two beds in, two couches  and another  room with two mattresses. NICE!!

What a interesting way to start our trip in Japan, surely it will get better from here...... right?
