well...........
I am currently sitting in a HUGE house (by japanese standards) on the southern island of Kyushu. It's only 9am, but it feels like 3pm! We took the ferry from Osaka overnight and arrived here at 5:30am. The whole experience was quiet surreal. The reflection of the waning full moon off the dark waves can only be described as 'haunting'. It was beautiful, but haunting.
On the way we passed through a cloud of mist on the horizon. The wind blew salty air onto our skins and a little korean kid spoke to us in an australian accent.
Anyways, there are pictures to come.
Memorable things so far:
~Meeting up with Fred and Amy from St. Andrews University in Scotland. (Hadn't seen them for about 5 years!)
~Osaka Aquarium
~Eating a green tea flavoured ice cream in the shade of Osaka Castle
~Crossing the point-of-no-return once we got on the ferry.
~The heat of Kyushu
