Day 6

Today we flew from Shanghai to Osaka-Kansai airport in Japan. The flight was around two hours, and was a great flight. We had our first introduction to Japanese food, as the All Nippon Airlines is a Japanese airline. Apparently word didn’t travel well of our arrival because the entire airport seemed almost empty. It was quite nice to not have to stand in any lines at customs or baggage claim. After gathering our bags, we found our old friends: Tets, Assistant Dean of Student Affairs at KIT, Dr. Scott Clark, Professor of Anthropology and Japanese Culture at RHIT on sabbatical at KIT, and Takashi Aoki, Head Basketball Coach at KIT. It was very good to see old friends again.

That evening was one of rest and recuperation, as we arrived at the hotel in Kyoto, ate dinner and went to bed. We head to Kanazawa tomorrow.
