Na-roshima looks happy (perhaps because she is finally able to get away from us?) She's heading "home" to mom and dad near Hiroshima. Perhaps the somewhat angry JR station man behind her is jealous? She was a wonderful and happy addition to our tour, and we missed her on our last day in Sapporo.
You say goodbye, and I say Hello Kitty. Steve gets into Hello Kitty's head here, but managed to keep his Hello Kitty product consumption to reasonable amounts on the trip. Steve is now on to China, where he will be able to find where they actually manufactured all of his Hello Kitty items.
This is the closest Alex ever came to seeing Mt. Fuji. Otherwise, not a single regret for the best trip he's ever had. Our rough guide here is weather-beaten, and we are exhausted, but we have learned much, we managed not to kill each other, and I think we have become better friends for our troubles. Now Alex is off to the UK to go into Abraham Lincoln overload (he's already read WAY too much about him throughout this trip.)Thank you for reading this blog. When we return from our journeys more pictures will be posted, as well as more thoughts on Japan's government and economy. Hasta,,
Alex and Steve
