A's haikus — week 22

Here are the final few haikus!

Day 148 • 30 Jan • Ishiuchi 

Thrice down the mountain
Is enough for this boarder.
I prefer onsen.

Day 149 • 31 Jan • Ishiuchi 

The world is a cake.
It is all smoothed over with
Thick white marzipan.

Day 150 • 1 Feb • Ishiuchi 

When I think of home—
Old friends and new adventures—
I am excited.

Day 151 • 2 Feb • Ishiuchi to Tokyo

Antlers on the wall
And twangy banjo tunes—Wait.
Is this still Japan?

Day 152 • 3 Feb • Tokyo to Brisbane 

Welcome to Brisbane.
Hello sunshine. G'day friends.
It's good to be home.

PS. For anyone still reading out there, we are planning to do a final few wrap-up posts. One of them will probably be a Q&A. If there are any questions you'd like to ask us about the trip, post them as a comment (or send them to us some other way) and we'll answer them for you!
