Good to be back.

I made it! Currently sitting in an Internet Cafe in Ueno, killing time before meeting a friend. Everything so far has gone according to plan.

The first flight was okay. I watched two amazing films - Exam, about a group of cross-section representatives competing in the worst job interview ever, and Liar Game: The Last Stage, a film of the Manga and TV series Liar Game. This 'Last Stage' involves entirely of voting for apples, winning or losing millions depending on a bunch of arbitrary rules.

After a brief wait in the gorgeous Dubai Airport, the second flight was a bit rubbish. My in-flight entertainment hardly worked and I couldn't sleep, so most of the time was spent waiting for the next meal (Emirates food is yummy by the way. Brownie points!)

When I landed and clocked in, I headed straight to Shinjuku, and managed half an hour's kip on the bus. From there I got a taxi to my capsule hotel, checked in and went straight to bed deciding to shower in the morning. This was about 9pm, and after a fitful nights sleep I decided to get up at 6 and have a wash. Naked men evrywhere! I felt pretty self-conscious but I just decided to do what I had to do and get myself clean.

Which didn't last long, because as soon as I stepped outside (at 7am bear in mind) I was covered in sweat again. I wandered around Shinjuku for a while, making sure I knew where to catch my bus on Tuesday, then came to Ueno, charged up my old Suica card (which still had 350円 on it) and then found this little place to kill a couple of hours.

Bye for now.
Don't forget to follow or subcribe :-D

Glad to hear it's going well so far. Though the capsule hotel sounds a little weird.
