The journey begins...

Our journey begins in Munich. Full of excitement, we overcome our final bureaucratic hurdles. Life has prepared some tests for us and is testing our nerves. How lucky we are to have the emotional support of Frank and Dani.
But then we finally board the plane. And we are confident. For now.
In Abu Dhabi, we are tested again and stand trembling at the gate because the flight crew has a different idea of ​​time dimensions and considers our PCR test result too outdated. But the 'blue screen' saves us! (the digital display for Japanese immigration procedures)
Almost in tears, we sit in the plane and eventually even fall asleep. When we wake up, we are flying over the Chinese Sea and can soon discover the first Japanese islands. Even an island with an active volcano from which smoke is rising. We are fascinated by the unique landscape. Tokyo, here we come!
