Today was farewell to Asakusa hotel (Goodbye friendly clerk searching for my Herbert!!!) and hello Aria hotel in Namazu! Yes, I am spending a week here teaching 2 elementary schools from tomorrow morning onwards...ahhhhhhhh To be honest right now I feel too tired to feel scared..but I know tomorrow...I'll be praying like madddd.
I got most of the information I needed from David before I set off on my journey! I went on the Shinkansen (the bullet train) for the first time ever! Ticket all paid, and seat reserved, oh yeaaah! Be impressed that I managed to find my way through Japan to the correct destination. I did arrive at the hotel totally sweaty, wet (it's raining) and tired. I must have looked like a bit of a train wreck. My bag was also a B^*&%^ to carry so I actually have drag marks on both my shoulders. The hotel is niiiiice! I get a massive bed and a pretty bathroom! This hotel seems very environmentally friendly, there's a switch you turn on for the bathroom lighting which goes off after 20min. There are also signs everywhere suggesting ways of saving the environment, it's kinda cool!
I went off for a walk towards the river after having the most amazing shower (Don't you think showering is the best thing ever when you actually feel filthy?). It's quite a beautiful area really, and apparently there is a lot to do. Mt fuji is also visible from here apparently...so I shall investigate that later!!! Quite exciting really!
I'd better go to bed now....ahhhhh
