My Trip To Japan

By Nick Sphar

When I first found out about this trip I couldn't believe that I could do something like it. When I got accepted I was both terrified and excited about doing this and also the choices I have had to make but I think I made the right ones. When I first got to Japan aside from the airport I completely fell in love with every thing around me, the culture, the art, just…. EVERYTHING even the cars!
As we finally arrived after four hours of the train ride we made it to the hotel, which was also one of the biggest highlights of this trip. The management and staff were just the nicest people that you could ever meet even if they didn't speak the same language that I did. The spas were just the most relaxing thing I have ever done. I know I got up at least four times at five o'clock or earlier just to go to the spa. Although we didn't spend much time there I really enjoyed the time we did.
Now even though I hate museums in Canada, Japan's museums will really leave an impact on me. In the three museums I went to I was never bored and always learning. I learned about a poet older than Shakespeare and just as good if not better. The history in Tokyo museum was pretty cool. I wish we could have gone to more museums.
I have never gone on a boat tour before so naturally I was in awe. All the animals, culture, and history we saw and learned about were really interesting. The river guide was very cool and a good singer as well.
