Japan and more

Jakob is happy to return to Japan!

... for the first time since 3,5 years! And it still feels very much like home!
We  arrived in the early afternoon in Narita, and immigration and customs procedures went so smoothly that it took us less than an hour to get out of the arrival hall.
Since we are travelling with two children this time (we are taking with us the son of friends of the family, who is very fond of Japan), we decided to stay overnight in Narita, to relax a bit before continuing our way to Hakodate (on Hokkaido) by Shinkansen tomorrow.
We even managed to visit the famous Naritasan Shinshoji Temple and stroll around the beautiful Omote sando street, with lots of traditional old houses, nice restaurants and interesting shops, before collapsing at our hotel.
