We’re Leaving Tomorrow Morning

We’re about a 19 hours away from boarding our flight to Tokyo (with a quick stop in Toronto first) and we’re all pretty much excited. This is a unique, one-of-a-kind experience that not a lot of people get to enjoy. Visiting the other side of the world and seeing a totally different culture at play is, for us, the greatest adventure ever.

In case everyone is wondering what the plan is or the itinerary we’ll be following while we’re there, we’ve got a surprise for you: we’re basically winging this trip from A to Z. From the looks of it, whether we rent a car or not, we’re going to visit several cities in 11 days to get a feel for Japan. Once we arrive in Tokyo, we’re going to spend the night at a hotel nearby the airport. The following morning, we’re going to fly to Nagasaki and then drive (or train) our way back to Tokyo to spend 3-4 nights until we come back to Montreal. We plan on visiting Hiroshima, Osaka, Kyoto, Fukuoka and other cities I can’t think of right now. If we end up driving, we’ll be going through quite a few cities including the country side. Also, we plan on stopping by a city or two beside the ocean for some killer views.

Tonight, we plan on packing our bags and having dinner at La Verita to celebrate a mutual friends’ birthday.
