Team Tokyo Metis

Trip to Tokyo

July 30, 2017 | 1 Minute Read

On Saturday evening half past seven we meet at Schiphol. There we said goodbye at our parents and joined the queue for baggage check-in. After that we went through the customs and waited for boarding. We flew with a double decker plane from emirates. We had takeoff at ten o’clock. There was a tablet in the front of every seat upon which you can play, games, watch movies, listen to music and watch cameras outside of the plane. We watched the Lego batman movie and after that there was a meal. It was not very nice but it was okay. After that we slept a couple of hours.

We land in Dubai at seven o’clock local time. We left Dubai around eight o’clock in another emirates plane but this one had only one deck and a tinier, less good tablet, but it was still very nice! In the plane we had breakfast first, there where eggs or fish with a croissant and some bread. Then we played Tetris, played on Adem’s Nintendo switch and watched movies for like 5 hours. There was a dinner with chicken or fish, it was, like the other meals, not super but okay.

We landed in Tokyo at eleven o’clock (July 30) then we stepped on the monorail stepped over on the metro. When we went out it was half past one and the night service stopped so we went further with a taxi (That was quite expensive but we were tired). When we were at the house. There was a really nice Japanese who showed us the house and explained how the airco, the wifi and that kind of things work. Then we went to sleep because we were tired of the long day.
