It feels like a lifetime ago since i updated you guys on the going on’s.
First up a little notice: My phone is officially not going to work what-so-ever over here in Japan. America will probibly be an entirely diffrent story, but the cell phones (of which i am extremely dissapointed they won’t work on Vodafone, as they are THE coolest things I have ever seen) here are all on plan and roaming in Japan takes two weeks to process…err annoying.
Second up, best way to get hold of me is via email, if your looking to call, the chuck me an email and ill feed you the number.
Third: Hey Mum, Dad, Annabel and my friends, I’m hard out missing all you guys and even though this is amazingly amazing. I can’t wait to see you, Dad – the camera is really really cool. Thank you! Annabel shoes are keeping my toots warm in the soft snow (featured in this ep!) and Mum I wouldnt be here without your ticket help! thanks.
OK
So back to pics and stories.
Heres a pictorial run down of the couple of days spent cruising the streets of Tokyo after our last update:
