Japan! (Day 1)

Hi all~ as promised I am going to blog about our trip to Japan. Day 1 wasn't too exciting. It started off with a night of 4 hours of sleep due to lack of preparedness, a 10 hour flight and a 2 hour train ride. We left at 11 AM on Saturday morning and arrived at the station in Tokyo Sunday evening at 6pm. Here is what I saw when I stepped out of the station in Tokyo... keep in mind it's 6pm. It got dark really early.




We stayed in a private room in a hostel. The mattress felt like a table top... but after a mile walk with a 40 lb pack from the station to our hotel in a very humid 90 degrees and a long shower, the bed was a very welcoming.




Check out the size of the bathroom~


Look! We even had a small TV in our room... all I can say is the Japanese really love their game shows.
