๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ I delivered 60 lbs of ULINES today! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iโ€™m back at work and wish I could say it feels good, butttttt โ€ฆ.. it does not ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iโ€™m already dreading Monday โ€ฆ.. Monday is a mega-hard day for all letter carriers nationwide ๐Ÿฅบ

Itโ€™s census time again and we have 1 day, Monday, May 4th, to deliver full coverage, to every point of call on our routes ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Last time, May 2021, I worked 11.5 hours to get it done and the routes were easier to complete back then โ€ฆ.. theyโ€™re now about 25% longer ๐Ÿ˜•

I came back too soon! ๐Ÿ˜…

I did however miss phone book delivery, so shout out to Morgan who covered my route! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

โœˆ๏ธ Day 19 of 19

We begin the long journey home!!

*Fun fact! We will be travelling back in time 7 hours and 15 minutes! True time travellers ๐Ÿ˜‰

We leave Tokyo in about an hour, Sunday at 4:55PM and arrive in Vancouver 7 hours and 15 before that at 9:40AM ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ Magic!

Once we arrive in Vancouver, we have an 8 hour and 30 minute layover and then a quick flight home to Edmonton โ™ฅ๏ธ

I had my last 7-Eleven sandwich and Mommers had her last โ€œWhiteโ€ Coke โ€ฆ. weโ€™ve said our goodbyes to Japan and are excited to get home ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ’•

Iโ€™m excited to get home, snuggle my Boyfriends, turn on the TV and read an Archie comic before bed ๐Ÿฅฐ

See you soon, YEG!

๐Ÿฃ Day 18 of 19

Today, I crossed off Bucket List 36: eat sushi in Tokyo ๐Ÿ˜‰

We didnโ€™t do much today โ€ฆ. I bought a bunch of Hello Kitty t-shirts โ€ฆ. when in Japan โ€ฆ..

I thought Iโ€™d have a hard time finding one big enough for my brother, but the exact opposite happened โ€ฆ. they only had M-L left and I ended up getting 5 t-shirts that will fit Nolan ๐Ÿ˜‚ Haha

My little Camilla will be swimming in it! So, I hear thereโ€™s a Sanrio (Hello Kitty) store at the airport โ€ฆ. Iโ€™ll try my luck tomorrow ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ

Oh โ€ฆ. and we went to 7-11, of course! ๐Ÿ˜… 7-11 is a big part of Japan โ€ฆ. their little crustless sandwiches and brรปlรฉe ice cream are to die for! ๐Ÿ˜‹

Itโ€™s just after 8:00PM here and weโ€™re sleep prepping for our long journey home tomorrow โ€ฆ..

So goodnight from Tokyo, Japan for the last time ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ˜˜

๐Ÿˆ Day 17 of 19

We bid Mt. Fuji adieu this morning and said hello to the bright lights of Tokyo! ๐Ÿ˜

Holy crap balls is Tokyo ever busy!!! ๐Ÿคฏ

We spent 90% of our time here so far in the subway station! ๐Ÿ˜‚

If we went down there unsupervised, we may never resurface again! Hahaha!

Shinjuku Station alone has 200 exits! ๐Ÿฅน Weโ€™d be wandering around down there for the rest of our lives ๐Ÿ˜… Mommers thinks weโ€™d miss our flight on Sunday โ€ฆ. so weโ€™ll remain above ground tomorrow ๐Ÿคฃ

No more subways for us on this trip! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Tokyo is like nothing Iโ€™ve ever seen before!! Millions of people everywhere, all the time!!

We saw so much today and are super grateful for our amazing CEO, Jade and for our substitute CEO for the day, Maya! ๐Ÿฅฐ

Weโ€™re exhausted, itโ€™s late, and weโ€™re going to bed now! ๐Ÿ˜ด ๐Ÿ’ค

Goodnight from Tokyo, PeepMuffins ๐Ÿ˜˜
