Niijima – Tokyo, the Island!

A small island off the coast of Tokyo, thats actually considered Tokyo. The small island was the perfect getaway for us high schoolers after an intense year.

We got there by boat, and once on the island, we walked with all our luggage for an hour to the campsite. We set up our tents, rented some bikes, and stayed there for three days, biking around the island and visiting beaches.

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

– J.R.R. Tolkien
