Japan Trip - Day 15 & 16 & 17

Japan Trip - Day 15 & 16 & 17



Our last full day in Japan was spent on Odaiba Island


A place for recreational fun, arcades, food, shopping. 
We played a few old style games, and some new.



We played lucky dip to try and win something good... but wound up with a plushie.




Took some nice photos of the rainbow bridge.



Then ate Yakiniku BBQ kobe beef for dinner. 




Day 16 & 17
We had to check out of our apartment by 10am, but our flight wasn't until 10pm so we headed to Akiharbara for some last minute shopping for souvenirs and the day flew by.
We had a 12hour flight from Narita back to Istanbul in Turkey, a 3.5hour flight from Istanbul to Manchester UK, then about 2hours on the train back to Leeds just due to it being a Sunday.
It was easy to get lost on the day and time, and we both crashed after a couple of hours being home.

Japan was amazing, it took a lot out of us walking for 10+ hours each day and there was still so much that I feel like we didn't get a chance to see. I definitely think we will come back again one day.

Japan Trip - Day 14

Japan Trip - Day 14







So today we were able to go to a really magical place, the place where our cute animation heroes are from. We went to the Studio Ghibli Museum, totoros and soot sprites galore.





Everything about this place is super cute, the exterior of the building, doors, windows, the food, even the entry tickets were little movie film strips.




For the majority of the museum you weren't able to take photos but there was small outdoor areas that you were able to take photos. Including the rooftop where you could take a selfie with this tall dude!



After we were finished in the museum we headed to the Gyoen gardens in Shinjuku.
The Japanese style garden was our favourite.
