Flying to Japan...

Finally in Japan!! Though, can't really comprehend it yet. So today we arrived to Nagoya. The nine hour Finnair flight was all the way so smooth. Not a single air bump or odd noise. Just Lift and land - perfect. Apparently Finnair has renewed their Asian fleet or at least this flying metal can was very new. It had media center and with everything you could imagine.

Plane was full of Japanese tourists. Great side about Japanese flyers is that, unlike many westerns, including Finns, Japanese don't really make a single noise when they fly, nor do they make frequent toilet visits or bounce to their cabin luggage when the belt light turns off. It should be rather easy to sleep during flight. Well, us it seems impossible no matter how quiet.

Our plan was to catch up the time difference by waking up early in Finland. Bad idea. We woke up at five in the morning. Idea was that in the plane we'll sleep, and at the time we arrive in Japan it's morning. Sleeping didn't work out. Were more or less awake for over 24 hours. Better would have been to sleep as long as possible before boarding. Next time we know better.

From Nagoya Central Air Kintetsu shuttle train bounded us to heart of Nagoya, from which we continued by taxi to ムーミンママ's parents place. It's hot here, they say it's getting cold, but the thermometer still at nine in the evening was +28 degrees. Short cycling trip to Tokyo Hands departments store soaked shirt with sweat.

Tomorrow, we'll head to Toyota car factory for a tour!
