Greetings from the Land of the Rising Sun. It is nice to be able to connect with the
outside world again. As we arrived in
Japan the government forced our ship to disable our internet satellite so I have
been dependent on spotty WiFi connections I was able to pick up on my phone.
Today is our fifth day in Japan, second in Kobe, however I am on call today
and will be stuck on the ship until we sail tonight at 2000. I guess technically I’m forced to stay on the
ship after that too unless I’d like to swim to China. I plan on catching up on blogging and
organizing my hundreds of pictures in between calls about lost students and
missing Ipads.
Overall I really enjoyed my second time visiting Japan. It’s a beautiful, peaceful country but one of
many interesting contrasts. It’s very
common to find a small Shinto shrine situated among sky-rise apartment
buildings in a bustling neighborhood.
Japan is also one of the cleanest countries I have ever visited but
finding a trashcan seems next to impossible.
I will recap our trip from Yokohama, Tokyo and Kobe in smaller post to come. In the meantime, arigatoo for reading.
