My epic trip back to Melbourne for mums wedding.

So mum got married on saturday to her new huzzy Tony. Tony is a champ by the way. So i had to fly from japan, all the way back to melbourne for 3 days, then fly all the way back to japan to keep working. Needless to say, (mum if your reading this, ya probably could of had ya wedding 4 weeks later when i was back home haha) it was an enormous mission. So on wednesday i left Niseko and headed to Sapporo airport for a plane to tokyo. Turns out the weather in tokyo was quite shit that day, and we were told we might be diverted to osaka, or worse still, flown back to sapporo.


This is my flight, Narita is tokyo's international airport. look how funny the other destination is hahaha

But alas the pilots told us they were gonna land, and after the most EXTREMELY high speed crosswind landing from hell (people were crying they were so scared!) we finally got the wheels down and landed safely. And it turned out that my buddy Wade was on the same flight as me and also had a lengthy stay in narita, and after the landing he whips out 2 complimentary passes to the Qantas lounge. What a legend!

And as you would imagine, i made the most of it hahaha

I flew from Tokyo to the Goldcoast and met up with dad as i had another 5hr stopover. It was sick to see dad i hadnt seen him in ages, and i went for a swim at Kirra aswell. Epic

Dad, what sicko
So saturday rolled around and it was wedding time, the main event. Was an amazing day and the weather was super epic.

This is my bro. Believe it or not he works a very professional job with that stupid haircut
