It’s been quite a while since Kate and I have been on a major trip. Other than visiting relatives, we haven’t been on a trip since our honeymoon at Disney World in 2005. Last year, we decided it was time that we fix that but all of the destinations that we were really interested in turned out to be quite expensive. In the end, we realized that it was always going to be that way and we might as well just go somewhere. It’s not like we couldn’t afford to do it but it can be scary knowing just how much money you’re going to be spending on such an adventure.
While Kate has been over seas a few times, I’ve never left the continent of North America. So, we decided to go somewhere that neither of us has been. Kate had never been to anywhere in Asia and I really wanted to go to Japan which is probably quite a shock to those of you reading this. Considering the title of this rant, you can easily figure out where we are going.
Our trip, which will be during the end of March, is coming up pretty fast. We have a small list of things that we plan on seeing but we really need to sit down and create a more concrete schedule. We’re definitely going to the Ghibli Museum, Mount Fuji, Akiabara and all of the other cool places that a video game nerd or anime freak would like. I plan on taking a ton of pictures but this is also not a very big surprise coming from me.
Have you been visited Japan? If so, what do you think are the ‘must see’ places? I want to try and fit in as much as we can while we’re there!
