So even though we didn’t go to Okinawa, the typhoon still had an affect on our trip here in Onjuku. The change in water temperature from the typhoon created some very large and choppy waves so we weren’t able to continue our surf lessons yesterday.
I’m really amazed at how we randomly happened to come to Onjuku. It’s just a tiny town that has just a small handful of traffic lights and not even a single 7-11.
I’ve skipped a few days worth of posts because honestly there hasn’t been much to report.
We didn’t leave the hostel until past 2 pm yesterday because I had to figure out what we were doing the rest of the trip.
Yesterday was an incredibly frustrating day. At 11pm the previous night, I find out that there’s a category 5 typhoon heading directly for Taiwan while brushing against Okinawa.
I’m going to have to do a quick mashup of two days worth of activities on this post.
I feel like I’m really starting to get the hang of getting around Tokyo, which means that it’s probably time to move onto the next place :p Yesterday was a pretty busy day.
We met a lot of really cool people from all over the world the past few days
Last night I was able to get my first full night of sleep in 4 days. I had to unfortunately skip a trip to a Karaoke bar with a group of new friends but I completely crashed at 9:30 after dinner.
We successfully made it to the Tsukiji fish market’s tuna auction this morning. We had to be super strategic about it. The hostel rents out bikes for $5 a day and we were able to cut down on travel time to the market.
