Tour Diary - Day 15 & 16: Shopping in Tokyo and flight back to Sydney

Day 15 & 16 - 14th & 15th December

The last day in Japan showed the boys a more modernised Japan. We ate a delicious buffet breakfast at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel and departed on our way to see the famous ‘Tokyo Drift’ crossing. This is the renowned crossing where a high speed chase raced through in the movie “Fast and Furious – Tokyo Drift” which is a favourite amongst the boys. After seeing the crossing we headed for Shibuya station where we were told the rendezvous point. The boys went crazy with the shopping as Shibuya station boasts a number of famous brands, such as Adidas, ABC Mart and a 3-storey Nike building. When time was up, we jumped on our bus and headed for Narita international airport. After some last minute shopping at the tax-free stores we boarded flight JL 771 and headed back to beautiful Sydney.

The Trinity Japan Rugby Tour proved to be an extremely beneficial experience for the entire squad, it has helped us develop our rugby to adapt to the fast-paced Japanese brand of footy, it has allowed us to experience a rich and ancient culture first hand, as well as letting our tour group grow closer together as brothers as we aim to bring the Henry Plume Shield back home in 2016.
