We arrived Kansai airport three hours before the departure time by an express train, u really hv to be a bit "kiasu" as the immigrant check-in took quite a long time due to the new restriction on liquid items.
we returning safely to Singapore after ard ~7hrs flight...
I do spend some time to reflect on the last 14days,the kindness of people I met, both locals and fellow travelers, Japan is such a wonderful place to visit:)
