The rain stopped, but a freezing cold day. 12 degrees, not including wind chill.

Today, as I’ve already inferred, it’s rained all day.

Arrived back in Yokohama yesterday morning.

We’re steaming our way back to Tokyo.

It’s the middle of the afternoon and it’s pouring with rain.

It’s late and we’re sailing out of Fukuoka Harbour, I’m watching the lights of the city go by my window as I’m writing this in bed.

Japanese immigration is very strict.

It’s now the afternoon so I’ve really got myself mixed up now.

I’m confusing myself by not writing down the events of the day in the evenings.  The trouble is, with jet lag and some small contribution from a rather generous utilisation of the drinks package, I generally crash into bed straight after dinner, often drifting into the land of nod well before 9 pm. 

It’s early in the morning on a grey drizzly day, and we have just arrived at Kagoshima.
