Going again as that was Awesome!!!! Thank goodness for the fast pass.

On the train to Tokyo. Avoided getting on a sardine jam packed train but then got into a womens only carriage!!

Edit…. Went in wrong direction and had to get on sardine train!!! No one wanted to stand next to me though…apparently I’m physically intimidating to the average Japanese!!

Finally after two days…

At the Ghibli museum. Saw the most amazing unreleased film. Currently on the roof with a large robot!!

Spent a little too much money at the museum but it was worth it!!!

I really wish we were allowed to take photos as that place defies description.
Sheer beauty and would like to visit it again with the family.

What a zoo!!! Really crowded and people walking at a crawl.

I think Lee San just wanted to go shopping!!!

Lots of CoSplay kids and other assorted ‘trendoids’ out.

Saw my first real Engrish sign

On our way to the bridge to see more CoSPlay but we have just found out our bags still have not arrived

and we have no luggage!
Due to the stuff up with the delayed flight, we now have to go without luggage for 24 hours.
And we all smell.

Temple down the road from our Hotel

Everyone is stretching and carrying on with the inflight exercise video. Kids are taking the mickey out of everyone!! Classic!!

I think we just flew over Guam.

As above.

As a side observation, the Korean Air hostesses don’t know how to apply their makeup!! (yes, I’m a little stir crazy)…it must be all the KPop and JPop I’m listening to!!!!

Had to wait for ages on the tarmac (stupid delayed flight due to a connecting flight-Air France!!!!)
Am in the air now cruising at over 400 km/h towards Dubbo of all places!!!
Should be there in about 10 hours I think!!!

OK… it’s 7:30 am and they have just announced that the flight has been delayed by 45 minutes.
Knew it was going to be a long day when we missed the shuttle bus from the hotel.
Kids are pretty pumped for the trip and I will admit that I’m a bit antsy to get going!!!
