Narita

Sissy and I woke up very early and got ready for the day. We weren’t really able to sleep much but I would say the pod wasn’t too bad.

The only incident was that when I went up to go pee in the middle of the night a lady claimed that she went to get a drink of water and came back and found out that someone had stolen her two passports. Thank goodness I got Sissy to watch my pod while I went. We weren’t sure if she ever got them back but I hope that she did.

We woke up too early for any places to be open for food so we walked around and found this massage chair. It cost only a dollar something for a 10 minute massage. Since there’s nothing else to do I dropped some coins in and sat down. My back felt so much better afterwards.

We walked back to Tatsu thinking it will be Ramen. But when we got there we realized they served udon. We didn’t know where else to go so we ordered our udon. One curry and one regular. It wasn’t the best but we made do.

We went and bought some souvenirs before going towards our gate. It’s a very big store with so much to look at!

We stopped by a sushi place since hello Japan. We ordered the $17 plate of sushi and shared it. My sister is vegetarian and I was surprised that she tried more than I thought she would.

We went to our last restroom break before the flight. One that cleans your bum and the other you squat at.

A snack was served a little after take off and dinner three hours in.

We were served a sandwich halfway through the flight but I didn’t get one. I was too full and knew we would be served breakfast soon. Two to three hours before landing we were served breakfast, just as I thought.

I was able to capture the sunrise which is the most beautiful sight I’ve ever seen. So much cloudiness and so much brightness all in one. I was also able to see another plane fly alongside of us as you can see in the last picture.

Sissy and I took the Uber home. We showered and she took a long nap. Then we, along with Brett, Bruno, and Kato, went home to see Rizzo, June, and Rocky. Scruffy and Luna came over as well and we went to dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings. We came back for a couple games of Camel Up while tasting wasabi Kit Kat, Sake Kit Kat, and this crunchy noodle snack.

Though I wish I was still back in Hong Kong, I’m happy to be home. I have missed my pups and Scruffs.

Hello, my loves! I took some pictures of the first half of my day on my camera but being where I am at the moment I cannot get them up so words are all you’ll get.

We woke up and had plans for our last meal in Hong Kong to be Dim Sum with the parents, Kathy, and PoPo.

Afterward we went shopping to get last-minute things we wanted to buy. I even scored a new cardigan from Kathy!

It was time to head to the airport and once there Kathy and Mum walked around with us for a bit before we entered our gate.

When we finally boarded we were given a snack and moments later we were fed. This flight was shorter this time around which I appreciate because it means we were closer to home.

Once we landed we rode a bus to terminal two to find our abode for the night. We were going to explore Japan with our 14 hour layover but we didn’t pack winter jackets and it is currently in the 40s.

We rented pods, or capsules as they call it, in the airport. We are both super excited for the experience. I will say that it was kind of hard to find but … we made it, checked in, and put our stuff down.

Then we ventured to find an ATM and went into 7 Eleven to get drinks to go with our bread Kathy bought us before we left Hong Kong. Once we polished it all we walked back to Nine Hours.

How the capsules look like at a glance. They give you a bag with a robe, toothbrush, toothpaste, slippers, and towels. They supply the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash as well and even have multiple hair dryers which is pretty awesome! Oh and did I mention your own locker?

Once Sissy and I were done with our nightly routine we bid farewell and went into our own pods.

So far everything seems to be pretty cool. I’ll report back on how I feel once I complete my night.

Until then, stay positive and think good thoughts!
