Japan 2016. Ambition achieved.

It's been a lifetime of waiting but finally I am off to Japan. Accompanied by my wife Claire we will be doing some travelling round, staying in various places and seeing lots of amazing things. And some cats no doubt.
This year's holiday was my choice as I slipped quietly into my 50s but don't expect me to be tolerant of any peckerheads we come across.....
