Step out, it's cloudy.
Currently its raining, so I'm reticent to get out of bed. The joys of having a laptop.
Fortunately, I don't have to go to work today, although I still have much work to do here. I'm a terrible procrastinator, so it was only last night that I started to pack my stuff. Snowboard boots, jackets and pants were all done by my brother, but it was all my regular clothes that don't make me look like the Michelin Man (that's a very hard task) as well as my unmentionables, socks and bits and pieces that got stuffed into a backpack for carry on luggage.
Note to any inexperienced travellers: Roll everything. By rolling all your clothes, they take up less air space than if you folded them. Sort of reversing the principles of heat sinks.
Today, after getting acupuncture done for the first time, I've got to head to the bank and deposit my schrapnel savings. I just cut a hole in a large plastic jar and have been whacking my loose change in there, along with money I've received for doing some graphic design work on the side. Its only been a couple of weeks, but 20c here, 50c there, and now I've got over $100! It's a good way if you are a terrible saver like me, and I will be continuing it when I get back.
Sorry folks, no pics today, promise there should be some tomorrow.... Its when we flight out and arrive in Narita, and train it to Ueno for the first night. Stay tuned.
