Japan 2015 Day 16

Time to go home!

Sorry, but my Paul Bassett coffee wasn’t enough to keep me going on a day where I got up at 6:30AM JST on Thursday after a fitful night of sleep (due to drinking too many tasty Japanese microbrews) and went to bed around 4:30PM JST on Friday. My watch told me I got up at 6:30AM and went to sleep at 10:30PM of the same day, but that’s what time zones will do for you.

So these pictures are late.

I also found out that taking my morning medications with Aquarius Lemon leads to an upset stomach. My check out time wasn’t until 11AM and my flight wasn’t until 5:30PM, so I had time to go to Paul Bassett for breakfast and do some last-minute shopping in Shinjuku at Yodobashi Camera and Odakyu’s athletics department, though I didn’t end up buying anything.

I arrived at the airport very early because there’s plenty of last-minute shopping and food BEFORE YOU GO THROUGH THE SECURITY GATE. Got to the airport early enough to do some shopping there and hit my usual exit lunch at Fujiya. This actually calmed my stomach. Also, see that empty coffee cup? They keep filling it up at the Fujiya in Narita, unlike most Japanese restaurants.

Oh, the set also came with dessert because why not?

I got back to Portland and had lunch in the middle of the night in Japan. I was fading fast and took a quick nap in the afternoon.

Got close to eight hours sleep and I feel jet lagged. But it’s good to be home.
