Arriving in Engand

After a two hour flight from Toulouse to London Heathrow, we drove down to Devon, staying in a lovely thatched cottage bordering Dartmoor.  The first day, we toured the moors, stopping for lunch in a pub in Chagford.  This town had special meaning for us as good friends were married in this village church and had their reception in the same pub.

Overnight in Japan

We went for a stroll when we arrived at the hotel in Tokyo.  We discovered a Pachinko Hall.  While gambling is illegal in Japan, Pachinko, a game somewhat like a combination of a pinball and a slot machine, is seen more as an amusement rather than as gambling.   Joe outside a Pachinko Hall Inside the Pachinko Hall The hotel where we stayed overnight was a few kilometres from the airport.   RV Sized Bathroom in the Hotel Breakfast Japanese Styl...
