Farewell KL, hello Tokyo

Saturday, July 29, 2017
We are off to Tokyo today.  Our flight left at 2:15 pm, and our trip out to the KL airport takes about 90 minutes in total.  And that is without any traffic issues.  We elected for the public bus vs the taxi, as the taxi seemed really expensive.  Ninety minutes of driving, guess there is a reason for the cost.  The flight is excellent, and All Nippon Airways has our approval.  We land at 10 pm, and then start our journey into Tokyo to our apartment.  First a monorail, and then a switch to another line.  Out of the subway, we then follow pictures sent by our host to direct us to our apartment.  Street names are a challenge as they are in Japanese.  Talk about being in a foreign land.  Still lots of English, but not compared to all our other destinations.  The Japanese tourist information people are excellent, and give us accurate information which is very helpful.  Finally into our apartment at about midnight.  Fairly spacious for Japanese standards, but there are a lot of brown stains on blankets.  The boys elect to sleep in their sleeping bags.  Another great day.
