500 days, really??
Glad to hear you're starting to adapt to the life 'back home'... I think that's the most difficult part. I'm now looking forward to your next adventure, I love reading your blogs and your pictures are always amazing! Good luck with everything, guys!

Wow
Hey guys! Amazing final blog...perhaps there will be another trip in the future? Your trip is/was very similar to ours and you're also from Calgary! We're currently in Nepal, then India, then Myanmar, Phillipines, then China....eventually ending up in New Zealand. Going home is something that is so hard to explain to others who do not travel, we totally understand all the changes! After our first year away, it was more foreign to us to be at home than on the road. Hopefully Calgary isn't too cold right now! Enjoy the holidays. Dariece

Good experience. I too have seen many sumo tournaments in Fukuoka, my kid enjoyed a lot.

Thank you!
Just wanted to let you know that my daughter and I have thoroughly enjoyed your emails. They are going to be sorely missed. I can't help but be surprised that with eating so many foreign/different foods that neigher of you got sick - if anything you both look the picture of radiant health, even more so then when you first started. If you even make another trip - do keep me in mind. Thanks you so very much xoxoxo

Welcome to the Great White North!
Douglas Adams notwithstanding, it sounds as if Japan was a great place to visit, and a marvelous way to wind down your journey in preparation to returning home. We look forward to seeing you in the next couple of weeks. Have a great flight, and don't worry: you haven't missed winter - it's still here, waiting for you to enjoy! :-)

Hey Guys, We went to Osaka aquarium only because we needed to kill time before flying out of the city... It completely blew us away. There were two whale sharks there when we went, was there only one at your visit? Begs the question as to how they transport a fish that big, unless it died of course which would be tragic. We tried to visit every aquarium we come across, I suppose its the divers in us trying to relive the feeling above the water, Osaka is definitely up there as one of the best with Monterey Bay aquarium... Truly amazing! Mike.

Nice photos. If you ever get time, I'd love to hear some details about the financial side of your time in Japan - is it as dear as everyone says, is it possible to get some good deals, or are you bowing out by blowing the budget?

Great panorama!
Some fab photos, we especially like the panorama with the reflection on the still water. Enjoying your perspective on Japan, hopefully we will pick up some tips from your blogs on your time there. By the way, that Hida beef looks delicious!

You're almost home!
Wow! How time flies. I can't believe you are almost home again - what am I going to do with no more blogs to read or pictures to oogle??!! I think the tuna auction would have been fascinating - even if you can't understand the language, you probably could get the feel of excitement. Looking forward to talking to you once you are back on Canadian/Calgarian soil. Take care.
