Sighh!! As always I absolutely loved my most recent Japan Fuyu (2) 8th Sojourn... This as it turned out was to be my last for a while due to COVID 19..So I cherish the memories and places I visited even more so. 

​

Places I visited included Tokyo (staying once again in the lovely Mitsui Garden Hotel in Otemachi) then onto Yokohama to attend the awesome Japanese Castle Expo staying once again the gorgeous Hotel Associa Shin Yokohama .. I decided to stay and home base in some major destinations Okayama staying at the lovely ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel and Kokura staying in the lovely Daiwa Roynet Hotel where I did day trips to some lovely Japanese Castle Towns such as Takamatsu, Kochi, Fukuyama, Marugame, Fukuoka, Nakatsu, Iwakuni..Finishing up in Tokyo staying in Kabukicho - Shinjuku at the fun and thankfully very safe Hotel Gracery (The Godzilla Hotel)..

​

I had planned to go back to Japan in March/April 2020 for another Haru Sojourn.. but will leave that until international travel is permitted once again!
