HOLIDAY IN JAPAN - FUKUOKA TO TOKYO

Before leaving for Tokyo, some of my ex-colleagues hosted a get together or rather a "reunion" dinner at Gyoza Li (餃子李), a popular Chinese restaurant in Yukuin, Fukuoka. 
 
With good food and plenty to drink, it was an evening of joy, sharing the many great memories in the 90s during my tenure as their boss there.

On the next day, before boarding our flight to Tokyo, we had the Hakata ramen "高菜ラーメン" at Fukuoka Domestic Airport.
 The "Ramen" shop.
I have never missed taking this ramen whenever I returned to Fukuoka for a visit.
Our aircraft being "push back" for departure.
It's our first experience traveling on a B787-8 Dreamliner of ANA.
At cruising attitude.
The seat layout for Economy class is 3-3-3 with a comfortable 34 inch pitch. 
It was raining heavily when we landed at Haneda Airport.
 It's a long walk to the arrival hall, however, there's the comfort of walkalator. 
Our accommodation was Shinagawa Prince hotel, 1 minute walk from the station.
For dinner we selected an Izakaya restaurant near the hotel.
It was a very good meal to end our day.
