We flew in to Tokyo on September 3rd, 2019 and journeyed across the island of Honshu to see Ito, Kanazawa, Takayama, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, and Enoshima over two whole weeks.
Buckle up, this is a long one. Clocking in at over 14 days total and our longest trip yet, I planned and re-planned for six whole months between booking the plane tickets and finally leaving on September 3rd. I've loved sushi since I was a kid, and most of my family's holidays end up at hibachi restaurants so I salivated over all the different foods we'd get to try over the two week trip. I didn't know until about a month before that while Brendan and I travel well together, we travel for very different reasons. I go where my stomach leads, and he's more interested in the sights and the actual places we're going. It's a nice balance.
