​I woke up early for my last morning in Tokyo. This moment was bittersweet. Bitter because I would be leaving behind the city I had instantly fallen in love with, and not coming back until next year at the soonest. Sweet because I was mere hours away from visiting the beautiful tea fields of Shizuoka and beginning the next chapter in my journey.
​I tried my best to see Tokyo on my own, but just to make sure I saw all I could I met up with a friend who lives in the area. He had made a plan of all the things everyone should see in Tokyo.
​I know what you are thinking, Waikiki is too touristy. You may be right, but we ended up having an awesome time here! I too was skeptical at first, but my mind was soon changed.
​I had been to Hawaii about 6-7 times in my life and I had not once tried surfing. I always thought it was too difficult or frustrating to learn and never bothered to try it. Until today.
​We had just returned from the mokes and we still weren't done playing. It was a sunny day at Lanikai Beach and we wanted to make sure we really got use out of it!
​Today would be a little bit different. We wouldn't really be leaving Lanikai, but it could be considered one of our more adventurous days. First I would be canoeing in the morning and then swimming to the mokes in the afternoon.
