Shinjuku

Sorry for the delay in posting. Japan has been awesome so far! We arrived in Tokyo around 5 pm local time on Thursday (Tokyo is 15 hours ahead of Kansas City). Neither of us were able to sleep on the flight which was about 13 hours, after which we picked up our pocket wifi, got our rail passes, and pulled out some yen since Japan is largely still a cash based society. The pocket wifi is a great thing in that we can use it as a backup for Matt’s work or for wandering around and being able to call and navigate – it runs off their LTE cellular network and pulls 75 Mbps down and 25 Mbps up with unlimited data. Pretty slick, Japan.
