Japan in Pictures: Day 1-2 July 24, 2013Traveladmin By this point, we had been the air for *years* We’re just grazing Kamchatka! Cool! Within 271 miles! Although I suspect we were traveling faster than 400mi/hr at this point. Yes, that’s 13 time zones. Great on the way there, a total bear on the way back. Not quite as close…I guess Russian and Japan were not as friendly at this point. Just skirting the continental shelf. There must be some type of international border there. Hooray! Here! Now, for the most important thing. Take a picture of the Kanji for ‘washroom’.
