Back at home and missing Japan

Well as most of you already know I am back from my trip to Tokyo safe and sound, although maybe a little tired.

My flight was quite good and I got around 5 hours of sleep opposed to 3 on the way to Tokyo. When I arrived back in NZ I had to fill out a form to say what I was bringing into New Zealand, my list consisted of, 1.8kg of Jelly Beans, gourmet of course, a little bag of ground spices, 3 rice sticks, I have mentioned these on an earlier blog, rice crackers for Braden, which unfortunately he doesn't like, Japanese sweets, nori (dried seaweed) and instant miso paste. Next I went through to customs, the man there checked my list that I had written out in my book in case of an queries of what I had in my suitcase. At this time I showed him my list and hoped with all my heart that I wouldn't have to go to the left side of the room and empty my entire suitcase to show them what I had. My wish came true and I only had to go to the X-Ray machine, the lady there asked my what I had so for the second time I showed someone my list. She waved me through and I was free to go through the doors and out to see Mummy and Daddy. I really do miss Andrew, Sonia, Sachi and Japan and I hope that one day I will get to visit them again, maybe I should start saving up. I am enjoying being at home, but as you always do after travelling and going on holidays I am slightly disappointed at having to stop my glorious holiday and come back to every day life.

Today we had a day of scrap booking, I started on my Japan scrapbook and have already done quite a few, it will be full to the brim when I am finally done as I took heaps of pictures and printed out around 124 of them.
