Finally here…it’s been almost two years of waiting for things to normalize in Japan. Now I am leaving this Friday morning for Essence of Japan! Very excited, and already packed. I am traveling with some friends on the small group tour that starts on 4/9, but getting to Tokyo a day early to hopefully help with jet lag. The weather looks good for the first week, but then rain, but I’m ready with all conceivable clothing options stuffed in!! Unfortunately the cherry blossoms will be gone, but everything will be green and beautiful.
Any last minute tips from anyone is appreciated, and I will definitely write a review when I get home. Arigato domo!
