Yokohama trip 2017

 Sarah had wanted to go to Japan with Neville and baby Arissa. So in March 2017, Repin, Neville, Shasha and I together with Arissa Rose went to Yokohama to fulfil her mummy’s wish. 

We chose March because we wanted to see the cherry blossoms and also to experience early spring in Japan. It was really beautiful just as the time that we went to Osaka in 2015 with Sarah and Neville and Shasha. But this time we had baby Arissa instead of her mummy. Arissa was a really good traveler- in the plane she slept the whole way in the crib that the airline provided for infants below 1 year old . At this time Arissa was 1 year and 2 months old , still small enough to use the crib. 

When we arrived in Osaka it was morning and she woke with a smile , cheery and happy. We got through customs easily enough and had breakfast at the airport while we waited for the train to Osaka.
