Springtime means Cherry Blossoms
It was a nice day in Narita Japan and I decided to take a walk to downtown. There is a Shinto temple in downtown, and they have many Cherry trees that are starting to bloom. In a couple of weeks they will be full of blossoms, but right now there are just ...
Japani jäämässä taakse
Matkan Japanin osuus on ainakin minun osaltani päättymässä, lennon kohti Hongkongia pitäisi lähteä huomenna aamusella. Ilen Japanin matka sen sijaan taitaa olla jatkumassa vielä hetken tuhkaisten taivaiden vuoksi - varmaa tietoa lennon ...
Standing and Waiting
I am publishing this entry mainly so the pin that sets the lines on the nap will show a stop at Narita Airport. My layover was supposed to be one hour but turned into 2.5 hours, most of it standing in our "Zone" lines for ...
Malonie bus from Narita to Utsunomiya
I got out of customs in one piece and am now sitting on the bus I had feared I wouldn't miss. I am pretty exhausted and am pretty sure that I will sleep through this one finally. I haven't got more than an hour of sleep since before leaving Seattle ...

Winding down
... . In any case, we had a choice between a very slow local train, or taking the express Skyliner all the way to Narita airport, and then doubling back to Narita city on the local train. We did the later, which was very pleasant especially after ...
A quick stop in our previous home
A brief stop in Narita Airport brought back memories of our previous life in Japan. For me it will always be uniquely foreign and at the same time familiar. Going straight to the free samples of $1400 bottles of ...
The endless flight
... big and we had to go from one end of it to the other; glad we were a little early, because our flight to Japan was already boarding when we got to the gate. Continental's flight was pretty nice, if any 14 hour flight can be considered nice. Each ...
Cakanje na polet domov
... Me zanima kak se mi bo v glavi obrnil cas ko bom prisel domov. Vceraj sem peljal kombi z observerji od Motegija do letalisca Narita - kar je okoli 150km. Bilo je zelo fajn vozit, ker sem imel dobri navigatorci in se vmes nismo kaj prevec zgubili, samo ...
Tokyo Is Bigger Than I Imagined
... , but there's more city to this city than I previously imagined and, although getting as far as I currently am (the Hotel Nikko Narita), my plans might not be as grand as I once believed. As this really is my first ever independent overseas trip, the fact ...
Japan, finally
... movie) and X-Men 3 and also played some multiplayer trivia. We also tried to get some sleep, but without much success. In Narita we successfully withdrew a couple ten-thousand Yen and jumped on the city-rail to Tokyo. We are/were pretty tired. Especially ...
to Narita
We checked out in the morning and took the local train to Narita station. There we took a shuttle bus to our hotel which we booked for one night so we can get to the airport from there with a shuttle bus instead of having to get to it from within Tokyo. ...
Some Final Notes and a Sad Sayonara to Japan
... painter to pass by. We stuffed ourselves with street food, consisting of all our favourites from my stay in Japan. Continuing to reminisce, we headed to Narita airport, another hour away still. Hannah and I got to the airport, posted a few letters, ate ...
Back in Japan
... to be gone when he flys out, so back we went, for something with a little more enjoyment. Fly to Japan, and go to the Hotel Nikko Narita. A huge hotel, with pretty average rooms (well mine was). Pay-per-view films, include Japanesse hardcore, ...
Long Journey Home-Narita/Tokyo
... I have to say THANK YOU JAPAN AIRLINES-we got upgraded to first class. We were able to stretch out and catch a nap before landing in Narita at 7 a.m. Since we had an 11 hour layover, I decided to take a quick trip to Narita town to check out the sights. I ...
narita: koi carp and honour
... at the hotel to go to a really big shopping centre for the day (?!), and used my one day to go for a walk around Narita. Japan is absolutely cuteness personified, I think about eight of the ten cutest things I have ever seen in my life were glimpsed in ...
Waiting waiting waiting...
... quickly grabbed him and dragged him away. (I took a few pictures so I could maintain the American tourist stereotype. Pretty cool! Japan is so unruly (haha not really). Perhaps the guy is some evil politician? The Japanese George Bush? Who knows? (sorry ...
Didn't Even Get Out of the Airport
We napped on a bench. Saw a collapsed bridge in the States on the ...
Flying Standby
... ;watching T.V. with a very polite attendant that brings you food and drinks at your beck and call! I can't say much about Narita as we never left the airport. I do think the Japanese should consider printing different money. If it ...
Letzter Tag in Japan
Heute stehen wir wieder erst um ca. 09:00 Uhr auf und fuehlen uns dennoch muede. Wahrscheinlich ruehrt das daher, dass wir in den letzten beiden Tagen so viel erlebt haben und hauptsaechlich japanisch gesprochen wurde. Wir haben eine sehr interessant ...
Day 2 - Japan
We're sitting in the lounge at Narita Airport. The bad news is that the flight has been delayed for 2 1/2 hours. The good news is that we have been upgraded to premium economy. Thanks Allergan! Day 1 went surprisingly smoothly. I think I'd attribute ...
Sumimasen Biru !!!!
... quite a few other things I can't remember the name of right now. At midnight, we went off to the main buddhist temple in Narita which is actually a series of a few temples, pagodas. I can't beleive they just let you walk around in it. In Australia it ...
Japan Begins....

FIVE CROWDED DAYS
... ? I haven't. The point is I was happy, and I did enjoy some good moments in Japan. For example: 1. The small city of Narita, home to Tokyo's international airport, also contained the quiet Naritasan Shinshoji Temple, and I found myself there ...
Back to Narita
We made the 5 hour journey back to Narita yesterday on the fabulous Shinkansen or bullet train, changing at Osaka and Tokyo. Travelling days are always a long haul with Steven getting quite bored and not displaying his best behaviour. Safely ...
Ankunft
... gibt es ja immer noch Brot dazu, so musste ich nicht elendlich verhungern. Nach erfolgter Landung ging es dann ab nach Narita. Laut Reiseführer sollte der Schrein einen Besuch wert sein. Bevor ich jedoch mein Ziel erreichte, sprach mich ein Japaner an. ...
Chilling, Sega World, Jump Shots
Narita (Close to Narita Airport) Note the Jump Shot montage (shows just how much hard work a jump shot can be!!) I spent one night in Narita. I didn't do much at all apart from go to Sega World. Which is not like the Sega World we used to have. It is ...
