Day 158 in Japan - Packing and BUS!

Today I had my last rest day of the holiday period. I packed my bag to get ready for the big trip tonight, and spent time with Sam for the last time in 9 days. It took me WAY too long to pack my bag - I kept putting in and taking out various bits of stuff.

Eventually, I rugged up against the cold and headed out with my giant bag (I only have the bag that I came to Japan with). I met Jodie and Carl at the station, and we walked down Flower Road to the departure point for overnight buses from Sannomiya. Picked up our tickets, loaded up our bags, and then hopped on for the 8 hour trip to Tokyo. We left at about midnight,  with my iPad loaded up with QI, Harry Potter books and Japanese study apps.

Ready to hit the road with Jodes, Carl, Fiona, Simon and Rob.

Food Highlight of the Day: Farewell eggs on toast dinner with Sam.
