a good laugh

Was surfing for net, when i came across this site - http://hisaai-hp.hp.infoseek.co.jp/JREast/Yamanote/Yt_s_eg.html

Included are sounds and departing melodies of the trains in Japan.

Will listening to announcements on trains affect my life? I think not but its great fun if you are really that bored.

like a child with a lollipop in her hand

I'm so excited.

Journey to Japan
- bus from canberra to sydney, 3 hours, $15
- sydney to tokyo via msia airlines, 17 hours, $1040
- tokyo subway to sis's place, 1.5 hours, $22.50

The total time taken from Oz, Canberra to Tokyo city is almost 24 hours. Joining me on this trip is the kitty I bought in Japan years ago. Yes, kitty, you are going back to your homeland for a holiday.
