i was looking around for years for kombucha in japan. now i found it and now i’ll drink it everyday. it was pretty good too. not as good as my homemade one, but better than nothing. here is the asian pear and ginger flavor.

the traditional flavor was better for me. 400 yen/each is pretty expensive, but you can’t put a price on a good thing for your health.

jumped back on the train again for the 2.5 hour ride and then arrived at nagoya airport to get my flight back to hawaii. i couldn’t believe how empty it was!!! i thought it was closed when i pulled up. i could have counted around 20 people in the whole airport.

it was so quiet and peaceful waiting for my flight. i had my noise cancellation headphones on watching a movie. OMG, i almost missed my flight!

i get on, take my seat, and had a great relaxing flight!

i swear, riding on delta is like sleeping at a hotel. the best seat, pillow, and blanket. heavenly!
