... the elevator is a sort of waiting room, filled with long sofas and conversation chairs . Ah, the lounge. I was asked to write our names down for a special souvenir at the end of the meal. After washing up, we were shown to the main dining room which overlooks Cinderella’s Castle and the main plaza area in the center of the park. White linen tablecloths, fine china, wait staff in tuxedos and what I describe as a sort of French maid look. Sure is a ...

... color. If the Student is having trouble understanding my directions, I would demonstrate by removing the colors I don't like until I find My Favorite color. Once the Student has chosen His/Her favorite colored pencil, I would have them repeat after me; "I like blue/red/yellow" etc. We would practice until the student is comfortable. To finish the lesson, I would have the student draw something He/She likes, in His/Her favorite ...

Tokyo Game Show 2008

... Elektronika, svetla, forbes, davy v divne oblecenych ludi. TGS to poskytlo vsetko. Elektroniku, aj davy forbesakov a este nieco navyse. Takze teraz uz mozem spat kludnejsie, lebo som mohol skrtnut dalsi bod v zozname nasich japonskych restov. No a co teda bolo na tom veltrhu? Najprv poviem, ze tam neboli ziadne strategie, pretoze ma to dost sklamalo. Len sa to tam hemzilo odvaznymi americkymi marinakmi siriacimi demokraciu v ...

Megatropolis Tokyo (Part 2)

... one evening from where we got an astonishing view of just how intense a megatropolis Tokyo really is. As far as the eye could see, north, south, east or west, there are endless highrise buildings... there are occasional breaks in the view for a small park, a freeway and also Tokyo Bay to the east but there's no denying this is perhaps the most extremely congested city in the world (in respect to the amount of buildings). It was a stunning view ...

Two Worlds

... on the roof. I had hoped to purchase a souvenir or 2 from one of the shops before we left but the selection was not particular relevant to me and the sardine tin circumstances prevented any serious browsing. By the time we had made it back to Omiya then taken another MAX Shinkansen back to Tokyo the hour was growing late and, with Steve becoming increasingly weary with a cold, we made the choice to return to Maihama. This could not go ahead without thought of dinner, for ...

Navigating Around The Largest City in the World

... relief. Subacko took over tour guide duty (!) when Hideko had to go to her English class, and she kindly took us to Tokyo Tower, where you can look out over the city, and paid for us to have our photos taken. Hideko and Subacko also treated us to a boat ride on the river. What kind hosts. Its really hard to navigate in Tokyo. Not only are there lots of small, narrow streets, where I stayed in Asakusa, there are lots of markets and small ...

Turning Japanese

... Left my house in ireland at 6AM on thursday morning and arrived in my hotel/hostel at 2PM friday so as you can see my bodyclock is probably a bit messed up. The city was surprisingly easy to get around and it helped that i met a very friendly japanese girl on the train from the airport who basically talked for the whole hour long train journey, i got a word in eventually . She was really helpful ...

Onsen - hot, sweaty and naked with 50 women

... have everything provided to pamper yourself. Hair dryer, moisturiser, hair product, even sterilised hair brushes. We were both very spoilt. We walked around and had soba noodles for dinner. We even tried throwing some ninja stars!! There were shops selling all sorts of cute Japanese souvenirs like cartoon ...

Tokyo Tales

... good to catch up with our friends. Today, we slept late in order to catch up on our sleep and had a late breakfast at Denny's. Yes, that Denny's, but the menu is nothing like the one at home...it has a wide variety of Japanese food and amazing service. After lunch, we went to see a kabuki performance. Rather than attending the five-hour marathan performance, for about $10, you can sneak into the balcony to see just one ...

Summer Sonic!

... I liked. This was quickly followed by Sin, Terrible Lie and erm .. something else I liked. All great songs. Even Trent with a tambourine wasn't enough to put me off. Having been pre-warned by Fionna I was ready for it. The whole set flew in. Before I knew it Head like a Hole had played and all the lights were out. Finished and time to go home. Again, another 1hr 30min train journey, sleeping for part of it this time and then home. First thing I did was call Fionna, basically the ...
