I'm Going To Japan

There are no third wheels when it comes to traveling. We would be going to Tokyo Disney Resort, so not sure if you'd enjoy that. On our next trip, we plan to travel across the country.

How's your pitching arm? :beaten:

I hear the Giants are looking for a new left fielder... :beaten: :hehe:

Along with many other positions in the field. The winter is not long enough to find all the players. I sense a "rebuilding" year for the Giants. The good thing about being at the bottom? No chance to see your team blow a lead to go to the playoffs.

And quite honestly, I don't wanna hang with the other AKB48 guy.




But I do wanna go to Japan... And go with someone who I know and knows their way around.

So what do I do?

@ bmwracer: How long were you planning on staying in Japan? Exactly what types of events or places did you want to see? Did you want to travel outside of Tokyo or focus all of your attention there? Somehow I think that you and qilver can work this trip out between you if you are willing to go a few places by yourself. I would be more than happy to travel with you, but I don't think you would want to travel with an Old Broad like me. :sweat: It would slow up your maid cafe action. :hehe:

Say come to think of it.... when is kenjilina going to Japan again? Maybe you two could be travel buddies. He certainly knows his way around Japan. :woot: :victory:

P.S. Apply for your passport. ;) :thumbsup:

I'm sure Q would have no problem bopping around Japan on his own... But me?

That's another story... I can't do anything on my own.


Maid cafe action? That's the furthest from my mind, really... Maybe after several visits to Japan...

But I've gotta get trip number one nailed. :sweat:

Sage advice from Enna...and echoed much of what I said, if I may say so. In any event..get the passport....the sucker lasts for 10 years so you won't have to worry about renewing it for quite some time.

Errr ...you didn't answer my questions. What types of places or events would you like to see? How long do you want to stay in Japan? I was j/k about the Maid Cafe action. I just meant that two guys travelling together would be more fun than a guy and an older woman. :P

I am NOT worried about you beemer boy. I have no doubt that you will get trip number one planned and executed successfully. :victory: Just start writing down your dream vacation to Japan, visualize it and expect it to happen. You might be amazed at how things start to fall into place for you. :say_gdluck:

i'm a dumb ass...i went to take some passport photos to renew my passport and as i was filling out the application i realized the passport was still valid.

the expiration dates on the passports are european style: day.month.year not the typical month.day.year. in america.....threw me off...at least i caught it before i sent it the money like a dork.

I could go there and just eat from place to place and have fun....not that there isn't a million places to visit!

Enna wrote:Errr ...you didn't answer my questions. What types of places or events would you like to see?

Anything and everything... Does that narrow it down? :P

EDIT: I can skip the cosplayers and sleaze joints... Save that for future trips. :beaten:

How long do you want to stay in Japan?

At least a week, probably two...

I can just imagine how much fun you'll have...you'll love it man!

A fantasy eating vacation! Sounds like fun! :woot: :mrgreen:

I just checked my passport, it expires in 2015. The last time I was in Japan was May, 2005. I am overdue for a visit. :puppydog:

bmwracer wrote:Anything and everything... Does that narrow it down? :P

Of course. :doh: :hehe: I know you will have a great time no matter what you do!
