Today we woke up at 4:30 and got ready, grabbed our luggage and went downstairs to meet our taxi so that we could go to the airport. After a 30 minute drive we made it to the airport, where we were only 2 hours early, and the aiport was already quite packed. Thnkfully we managed […]

Today we woke up early and decided to go spend some more time with the rabbits before leaving, as we still had food to use and the bunnies were more active at that time. We got out of our room and found some bunnies and i tried puddling again with the rabbits, this time having […]

We got up at 7am today to check out and catch the Shinkansen train. We grabbed our essential bento boxes and arrived at the platform, with a full 45 minutes still to spare. I was tired and blamed Antoine for rushing us and not letting me sleep more this morning. He quickly went to get […]

There was one essential Japanese activity we hadn’t done yet on this trip, the onsen experience. Since traditional public onsens don’t allow mixed genders, we booked a private bath in Osaka. We went for the earliest slot at 9am, since we’re usually up around 7 anyway. We arrived just before opening and joined a queue […]

Today we had a lunch booked in Kobe to try the famous Kobe beef. We decided to have a chill morning until then, since we needed to rest more. After a bit of sleep and doing nothing for once, we left around 10:30am to drive to the restaurant. It was a small place run by […]

Today we woke up feeling much more refreshed than the day before, thanks to finally sleeping on a real bed. We picked up our box car from the hotel’s stacked garage system, which felt like a mini attraction on its own. The car would roll onto a platform, rotate automatically, and then go into the […]

We woke up feeling quite tired, mostly because the futons were not very comfortable. But we couldn’t miss the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was included with our stay. When we checked in, the staff had given us yukatas, which are usually worn to the public bath, but everyone seemed to be wearing them around the […]

Today was our last day in Tokyo. To end it on a high note, we went go karting. Thanks to Antoine rushing us, we managed to leave our luggage at the station storage, grab my very necessary morning coffee, scout out bento boxes for later, and still make it to the go karting place on […]

The Disney day had finally arrived. We got up early and aimed to be there by 8am, a full hour before opening, feeling quite confident with our planning. On the way there, the metro was so packed that staff were physically pushing people in to fit more. We thought we had just hit rush hour. […]

Today we rented a car to drive to Mount Fuji. We booked the car near Shibuya so we could spend the evening there after returning it, very efficient planning on our part. We arrived and immediately found the famous Shibuya Crossing. It was still morning, so relatively less chaotic, but still full of tourists taking […]
