Last Day in Japan

Well, today is the last day in Japan.

I've spent the last two days in Beppu City, soaking in the onsen, getting a mud bath, and a little bit of shopping at the 100 yen shop. Yesterday, I spent the day with my dorm roommate in the onsen, for lunch, then coffee. Tomomi showed me where to go, how to do it and why. It's been a wonderfully relaxing few days that couldn't have come any sooner.

So tomorrow I'm taking off at 3:00am for the 2 hour Shinkansen out of Beppu City to Fukuoka, then waiting 3 hours and getting on the ferry to Busan. From Busan I will immediately take the bus to Seoul. Tomorrow night I will be in Seoul. I am meeting up with some of the Teaching Assistants from the DeliEnglish Camp for drinks and then I will spend the day in Hong-Dae, near Hong-gik University looking for a few more souvenirs. On Wednesday I will probably spend a half day in Seoul, but leave for the airport at about noon, for a 3:00pm flight to San Francisco.

Soon I will be back home! I'm so excited about getting home, back to the Rocky Mountains, back to my wonderful boyfriend, and back to my lovely condo. All the comforts of home...
