Trip from Brazil to Japan, going through Canada.

I'm just gonna spill away what happened this last week, ok? No strings attached.

I finally got on a plane from Brasília:

to Guarulhos (took about 80 minutes):


and then, after sitting for eight hours on the airport, from Guarulhos to Toronto...

and you'll just have to believe me when I say this flight was actually quite fun, even though it took about twelve hours. We took about two hours to take off, counting from the instant I got on the plane. So, before we were even in the air, I was already chatting with this really nice girl beside me. :-) She would take the next flight along with me to Vancouver.

But it so happened that I didn't actually sit nedt to her on this 5-hour flight. I sat next to Mike. He's a Canadian gentleman who was headed for China to have some fun, and I ended up giving him a R$ 2,00 bill as a souvenir. Then I had lunch at a chinese restaurant inside the airport, and the food was terribly delicious (maybe because I was terribly hungry).

This was the worst part:

I got aboard the flight headed to the Narita International Airport, near Tokyo. This wasn't supposed to be so bad, but I couldn't sleep, because I was anxious and the economy class seats were so crammed... and also there were about four babies who would take turns in crying. But, finally, I arrived at the Narita International Airport

On that airport, I took some of the dollars I had bought, just incase, and bought this huge Starbucks coffee. It was my first time, so I went with the big one. To be honest, there's better coffee just about anywhere in Brazil, and for less money.

The next flight was really fun, because I had to go to Kyoto, and I had a chance to see the top of the Fuji mountain over the clouds. I'll just put a similar picture I found on Google Image Search:
 
And then, finally I arrived at my final destination: Kansai International Airport.

This airport is famous because it was built on top of a man-made island that keeps sinking some centimeters every year:

 
See you next time!
