... all the stuff we didn't carry in backpacks for the last 8 months so here we are, unpacking and repacking boxes, and shifting our necessary items to suitcases to bring with us to Oman... which is, tomorrow! Yep, our flights have been booked and tomorrow we leave Japan to fly all the way to Muscat, where we're staying for a couple days until we do the short jump to Salalah our new home. <br><br>What is ...

I was the last one there. I kept snapping photos as I backed my way out, trying to capture the last little bits of my robot experience in Japan!.<br><br>And so yes, in the end I DID get to see some robots:)<br>--------------------------- -------------<br>
Fukuoka, Fukuoka, Japan swami_worldtrav... end of the line, that is, the Japan Rail Kagoshima Line. From Hakata, it's only about 45 minutes by rail if you do the Hakata to Kokura run by Shinkansen. Between Kokura and Mojiko, there is only one choice, the slow train. Mojiko is located at the Kanmon Strait which separates the island of Kyushu from the island of xx. According to myth, at one time, the two islands were connected, but at a particularly strategic ...
Hakata, Kyushu-Okinawa, Japan rbfromnj... factory store was 30% off the usual price. Amazingly, there were sidewalks for the entire route, which included some very rural areas. In Arita, street furniture included exhibit cases with pottery inside. Then it was over the river, through the hills, and under the Nishi-Kyushu Expresway. I passed some rice fields that were being harvested. <br><br><br>IMARI<br><br>Imari is the third major pottery town in Kyushu. By the way, Kyushu ...
Saga, Kyushu-Okinawa, Japan rbfromnj... to try, but even after eating we knew it was fish but that was as far as it went!! One of the Japanese eating at the stall offered us some of his gyoza (little parcels of chicken) and we enjoyed it so much that we ordered some of our own - we weren't expecting about 10!!! Absolutely stuffed and it ended up being the most expensive meal in Japan, ironic as it was a street stall, but the ...

Two of them actually drove me to the station where it disembarked, half an hour by car away. This trip was quite interesting and it was a good chance to get chatting to a local, a local girl about my age. Very impressed with the helpfulness of JR. After all this was the whole reason ...

I fear i have drastically underestimated my need for money while I am here--and a computer (I:m the only participant out of more than fifty that didn:t bring one). Mark says that having a computer will make school ten times easier. Blah! But then again, I:m not much for turning down a challenge even though ...
Fukuoka, Japan snuzette... Mr. Tanaka explained that in the old times, if that gate was destroyed by enemies, then the castle owners would give up their strong hold. So that gate was the castle`s main fortification. The castel was quite unlike any castle I had seen before. It looked like a fur tree, and consisted of one single 7 storey high tower. These days no one lived in it. It contained a permanent exhibition of old artifacts of the past ...
