So it seemed to me I had landed in a sea of people when the Narita Express left me in Ikebukuro station. I was headed for Kimi Ryokan for my first 4 nights stay, but I’d overlooked the fact that it was going to be rush hour, and I was dragging all my worldly possessions behind me. It was hard work getting synchronised with the flow of traffic. You really knew when you weren’t in it, because moving became almost impossible; everyone was in a hurry.
