Introduction:

My first visit to this wonderfully polite nation involved its signature ryokans, a high-rise luxury hotel with a roller-coaster and other rides built inside it, and a glowing-blue drink in a special restaurant with bay-windows out over the edge of its 40th floor overlooking all of Tokyo.  I kept a rude woman from troubling a shop owner in the Shibuya prefecture, and narrowly avoided getting shanked by a Yakuza gentleman.  That bento box in the airport, and the kaiseki later on, were particularly delectable.  I’m sure my first return will include some of the finest geishas and nyotaimori.  My third?  I’ll enjoy all of Japan’s best and invite many of them to Inisfree.

I made it to Mt. Fuji.  Next, I’ll make it up Mt. Fuji.  Finally, I’ll meet the legendary ‘bird people’ within Mt. Fuji and the other great mountains of this elf-preserved land.

 

Phase 2:

This is the time of my more-intensive studying of this country; I’m amassing a list of all its most-interesting ancient sites, its finest vegan eateries and spas, and whatever else might make for the finest itineraries once I’m able to return.
