So we finally left the UK after many sad goodbyes. However we were somewhat consoled by an upgrade on our flight and some free champagne! We touched down into Tokyo on the Monday and spent four nights in the most mental city in the world! We thought London was busy but turns out that its nothing compared to Tokyo... There is a million things to look at and can be a bit overwhelming. It didn't help that Heath's Japanese wasn't as fluent as he had claimed so we became very good at pointing and sign language! When we were tired there were so many lovely parks with turtles and carp that were really relaxing. We also took a day trip to Mount Takao, which is the lazy man's alternative to climbing Mount Fuji. It took us all day to go up and down and there were loads of Buddhist temples along the way and a monkey park to keep us entertained. We left on the Friday for Australia even more tired then when we arrived but it really is an awesome city to visit.
