Japan is AMAZING!!!!! Well now our time is nearly up in Japan and we have had a truly amazing time. Ben & Izumi have been amazing hosts. 2 and a half weeks have gone so quickly, but we have done and seen a lot in that short amount of time. Geting off the plane in Japan was such a shock, the heat and humidity was intense. It has been about 36-38 here and most of that has been humidity.
