We were up for 26 hours getting here, going to Ramen, staying at Maki's parents one night. They are so sweet. Also met up with Maki's cousin who was in her wedding, and her aunt. (The kids are staying with grandparents while Maki and I walk)
This morning we did 3 different trains, and were able to actually start our real journey. We asked Maki's dad to take our picture to commemorate the beginning of this adventure: (he needs lessons)
