Today's Journey
|
The plane arrives at Brisbane airport to take me to my first eastern destination in Japan. |
|
Flying above the Coral Sea above the layers of cloud heading northwards towards the equator. |
|
Flying over tropical cloud twelve kilometres in the sky. The Pacific Ocean is endless sea so there is no scenery I'm missing. |
|
Storm clouds tower over ten kilometres high as I cross the equator. |
|
More clouds as we fly well into the northern hemisphere. |
|
Lower cloud is scattered over the sea as the plane begins its descent into Tokyo. |
|
Landing at Toyko's Narita Airport. |
|
I've taken the skytrain into the main terminal and passed through immigration, so now ready for the next leg. |
|
Catching an evening flight up to Sapporo, Hokkaido's main city. |
|
Sapporo city centre is very busy in the evening. Fortunately the time difference between Brisbane and Sapporo is only 1 hour, so jetlag isn't an issue tonight. |
