Look, the traffic light does. We’re standing at a crossroads in Nagoya, a port city with the charm of Hanover: dull at first glance, but actually quite nice. In the distance there is a near-Eiffel Tower, behind us there are shops, in front of us a construction site. Now it’s green, we’re going.
“You don’t want to take the train, do you?” we were asked in amazement at the pier this morning when we set off on foot, leaving the cruise ship’s free shuttle service behind. But how relaxed is it when you can’t read a sign but all the machines speak English? When you’re surrounded by people on the subway who notice you but don’t bump into you? Or after the first successful transfer you have the feeling that you have had a little adventure? Even if the sky is as gray as it is at home, those who visit Japan for the first time, like us, experience what travelers experience at best: Everything is remarkable. Packed with Moomin souvenirs and Uniqlo trousers – because “elegantly casual” at Regent Seven Seas means: no jeans after 6 p.m. – we go back on board in the evening, finally properly equipped for what is to come.
