drastic the time change is I had a very wonderful experience with on Theon Airways the food the hospitality the service I slept like a baby I watched so many movies it was just overall the best international flight experience I’ve ever had and not saying something considering it’s the longest one I’ve ever been on for a long time it was just ocean like just blue underneath us so I was very happy to see The Horizon of Japan and we landed around 3:00 p.m. local time and I got to my accommodations around 5:00 it’s so cute here it’s a perfect space for just me this one person and I changed

to the jibli museum as a studio jibli fan I love perusing the grounds and seeing characters and animations from my childhood but I also gathered so much creative inspiration from the storytelling process journey of making handdrawn animation come to life they didn’t allow any photography or videography inside which I actually quite appreciated because it made me take in the exhibits while I was there in person but I did document my lunch here at the cafe and the outside exhibits every single meal I had in Japan was never a miss it was always so good but anyways I digress whether you have seen all the studio JBL movies or you’ve only seen a few or none I highly recommend you go if if you are a creative a filmmaker a Storyteller there is so much for you to learn and to appreciate at the ji Museum [Music] [Applause] [Music] morning [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] w [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] spe [Music] [Music] yep I’ll answer the age- old question do you like
