As anticipated, the final few days in Japan were hectic and stressful in fairly equal measure. Barely a minute was available for rest and we cleaned and packed and had unexpected guests drop in right up until the moment we actually left. Apologies to Beckie...we just couldn't do anything more.
I won't talk about the long journey from Mukogaoka to Hazelbrook, except to say that it just confirms my view of modern travel.
Now five days later we are better rested than before but the house is in confusion from the suitcases and impending boxes. The imac arrived safely. Yesterday we even had the time to buy a new (used) car. A 2002 Mazda Premacy. Pretty much our first choice, though Nadia insisted on an automatic.
The evenings are dark and there is a scent of winter in the air. Still somewhat distant, but looming.
