Golden Sun

I’d always imagined that the brilliant serendipity of my ridiculous job would some day take me to see Japan. But as the years dragged on and this dream assignment refused to materialise, I decided that I’d have to take myself. So I went for five brilliant but hectic days to Tokyo, plus the odd trip beyond, in what I thought was the Hanami (cherry blossom) season. Seems I missed it by a week, but the lack of blossom did nothing to quell my absolute love of the place. Not sure I could handle the pace of life or mental work ethic they follow, but oh, what a marvellous place.
