Japan

There is so much beauty, culture and quirkiness packed into this little country and we only scratched the surface of what there is to see. Japan was our first trip to Asia and it was a great introduction to this area of the world. While the planning process was daunting we found that once we arrived the people were welcoming, it was easy to get around by subway, train and on foot and much of the signage in the major cities was in both Japanese and English. We found plenty of playgrounds, tons of yummy food and sweet treats. We spent time in Tokyo, Hiroshima and Miyajima, Kyoto and Osaka and already have some ideas of where we would hit up next visit! Here's hoping that some of these posts will help make your next trip to Japan a success!
