Japan - Mt Fuji and the Japanese Alps

Hi Emma

I'm also on this trip and also getting into Kyoto a couple of days early, so let me know if you'd like to meet up for any pre-trip exploring!

I'm flying into Tokyo and then taking a train over to Kyoto, arriving in Kyoto on the 24th. Will be staying at the Palaceside Hotel.

It's a new part of the world for me too, not quite sure what to expect, but am certainly excited and can't wait to get out there!

Nick

Hi there! I am also doing this trip. I will be travelling on the group flight so I guess I will see you on the 26th. Are you travelling on your own? I am. I have done a few Exodus trips before but this is the furthest I have ventured. I am a 31 year old maths teacher from Cheltenham by the way. You usually get a few teachers when travelling in the school holidays.

Getting very excited now, about Japan that is, not breaking up for the school holidays (that doesn't happen until the 23rd this year - quite shocking!) See you soon.

Hi Nick and Jo

Good to hear from you both.

Nick - I am flying to Koyto on 23rd and arrive at Kansai airport early on 24th.  It would be great to meet up for some pre-trip exploring.  I am also staying at the Palaceside Hotel so should be easy to locate.

 Jo - yes I am travelling on my own but am well used to that.  Japan is the furtherest I have ever been and I an not looking forward to the flight.  I live in Yorkshire and am flying via Manchester and Paris - anything to avoid Heathrow!

 I will look forward to meeting you both.  Emma
