At long last, im here. And its actually starting to
sink in that this isn't just some quick break and then back to normal...
The flight was fine if a very long 12 hours (food was Japanese - a bit embarrassing as I didn't know what I was doing and felt as though I was probably doing something like dipping chips in custard - sweet stuff, savoury stuff etc)
Got into Tokyo OK apart from getting off a stop to early on a connecting train to my hotel. Would you have known?
I'm staying in the Juyoh Hotel, this is the view from my room, and then my room itself.
Im off to get some supplies for the next week or so. Ive just been chatting to a bloke and his girlfriend in reception who've been quite ill. Im going to stock up on water and other basic food groups -crisps, biscuits etc.
Apparently neither of them have been eating anything exotic, just McDonalds and Pot Noodles and conveniance foods.
I think I might be safer with Sushi...
Well Im off out now, its not as cold as I thought it was gonna be (and far warmer than Romford when I left) but I will wrap up warm 'cos theres still a nip in the air.
