The Sapporo Beer Museum

I only have one major item on the itinerary today. That is to visit the Sapporo Beer Museum. Sapporo Beer is one of my favourite beverages and having an opportunity to visit their home is as close to a "must visit" as anything else on this trip! Since it's a pretty light schedule I sleep in a little before heading out in the late morning. One of the great things about Japan is that their...

Flying to Tokyo After killing a few hours at e Jakarta airport, the check in counters for my flight to Tokyo opens. I quickly check in and make my way to the Plaza Premium Lounge in the terminal 3.

Old Town with Jakarta Good Guide After a much needed night of rest, I wake up feeling better and ready to explore Jakarta.
