Arrival

Second day here. It`s different, that`s for sure!

Yesterday, I went from Sydney to Singapore, a 7 hour flight. Then Singapore to Osaka, 6 hour flight. Boring, watched movies and slept and ate.

Once I got off the plane. I went through Immigration and Quarantine, which was a breeze. Then I met Masiko, I think that was her name. We talked for a while, tried to use the phone to call home. That was kind of difficult, even for her! We sat and talked at Mcdonalds.

I caught the Shinkansen and a normal train. The trains here are on time and fast. You surely can`t beat the trains in Japan! I saw a lot of mountains, but I guess that`s why they call the places blah blah mountain.

Went to the supermarket today. They put their basket on a trolley and push that around. Interesting. The whole supermarket trip was pretty interesting. Supermarkets are much more pretty here than in Sydney!

Dinner was grilled. Grilled meat, eggplant, sweet potato, bean sprout, corn and squid. Also had pickled cucumber and crab meat. A bit too salty for me!

Host family is fantabulous!

Short entry, sorry guys!
