Tokyo, Japan
Was able to snag myself a free meal on the flight to Tokyo by simply asking the flight attendant if there were any spare preorders :). Always fun to start the morning well.


The Narita Airport is huge, and luckily immigration officers didn’t ask for an onward ticket because I didn’t have one.
Rode an airport limousine (just a bus) to Tokyo City centre where Harry’s cousins, Johnno and Jenny, met us with their two children Phoenix and Jamie. They were so lovely and walked us to our apartment and gave us ideas of things to do. When we got to the apartment Johnno had set up some public transport cards with £25 on, some beers in the fridge and a spare blow up mattress if we wanted to use it, very generous. Jenny also invited us for a roast and Johnno invited us to the pub after work one day which we’re very much looking forward to!
The apartment is perfect, and even better than the one we shared together in France!


However, the toilet and shower is quite complicated. The toilet has a variety of bum cleaning functions, a heated seat, a built in sink and a bunch other buttons that I have no idea what they do.
We went to the supermarket, also confusing when you can’t even guess what an item is cuz it’s all in symbols, one shop even had a robot as the cashier.
Had some pasta for dinner and Harry went to bed early as his knee was hurting. I video called the family and made full use of having wifi again :D.
