SATURDAY 4 OCTOBER – Ho Chi Minh City to Tokyo

IMG_2699.JPG

A whole day of travel today. I’m flying to Tokyo via Air Asia in two steps. I’m up at 5am to ensure I catch my 8.30am flight to Kuala Lumpor, the home of Air Asia. It’s a short 1.5 hour flight. Then a 3 hour wait for my next flight to Heneda Airport, Tokyo. This flight is 6 hours but I arrive in Tokyo at 10.30pm Japan time. Australians don’t require a visa to visit Japan for a holiday. There’s no line up at the passport checking counters so it’s easy to get through but then I wait 20 minutes for my luggage to appear on the carousel. It’s always the last to come out for some reason. Then to my hotel around 11.30pm. It’s a big day for me.

It’s showering in Toyko and plans to for the next few days unfortunately. There is a typhoon approaching.

I find a vending machine in the hotel that sells beer! What a great idea. Just one to help me sleep.
