On the way home from an amazing trip to Oze national park. If I ever find a way to login to my bentogeek video channel again, I'd have such an amazing journey to share. This train station bento with fresh soft ingredients was on the way home.

riceball airport bento (650 yen)

Lit by the first rays of the New Year sun. Pretty good bento, nice variety. Flavor a bit muted and rice a bit too soft. All in all good snack before jumping on a plane in Haneda.
