We are sad our last day here is over.
We had a amazing time in Japan . There was so much that we saw. As we recapped our 8 days tonight over dinner at the local ramen diner, we couldn’t really pinpoint our favorite day. There were so many. We will not miss the packed subways. We experienced rush hour tonight on the way home…we were like sardines. It was nuts!

We toured the Imperial Palace grounds today and I would have to say “eh” it was ok. It was nothing compared to nikko, but cool in its own way I guess. After that we hit all the shops we wanted to visit before we headed home. Another day of putting in about 17,000 steps! We are pooped!
I hope you have enjoyed reading about our trip. I’m not the best writer, but hopefully you felt you were along for the ride with us!!

It was neat to see women in their traditional dress!

One last funny thing. We were in the grocery store near our apartment and saw this shirt! Too funny!
