Tokyo Diary: Sleep deprivation

I arrived early in the morning, 26th of October. I walked around Shinjuku in the pouring rain while waiting for my capsule hotel to let me check in, have a shower and get something to eat.

The journey from Oslo to Tokyo was fine at first, with a short flight to Copenhagen. At Kastrup, there was barely time to do anything other than get through passport control and make it to the gate. From there, it was 12 hours and 35 minutes on the plane.

Back breaking plane ride

The last time I went to Asia, I flew with Thai Airways. This time, I flew with SAS. I quickly found out that Thai Airways has better planes for long-haul flights.

I’m not particularly good at identifying aircraft, but the Thai Airways plane from Oslo to Bangkok was bigger, and the seats were much more comfortable, even in economy class.

I probably won’t be getting sponsored by SAS any time soon.

Enough complaining. Getting into Japan was easy, and I hopped on the monorail from Haneda to Shinjuku without any problems. I also got to experience Tokyo rush hour, and it got pretty crowded at times.

More photos to come

I wish I could show you more pictures from the trip, but I haven't been able to edit them since I got home. As the title says: more photos to come.

Here are four of the most interesting pictures I grabbed straight from my Nikon Zf. No edits.
