On the other hand, how you get there has it's pluses as well... Getting from point A to point B is the same in a Saturn or a Porsche, but the Porsche is emminently more satisfying... ;)

Eh?

11hr flight going there and 9 hours back?

Yes it's 100% my money, I think someimes she does not want to admit to it but does not like when I get things on my own so she can't say will I helped you get this or that..

Having said that I decided I'm not going to take her to Japan because I don't like her remarks..

Exsuse me but I don't like anyone who can make fun of Asians by trying to memick them, then call them a "Chink" then say Oh Son it's ok if you marry a Japanese women I don't mind..

God forbid if she came out with one of those smart remarks.. SO I decided it's best not for her to go with me regardless of her saying she was just joking.


I want to go off Season for Japan, I used to have a Calaneder that showed World events and it had alot of things about Japan in it like Golden Week and so on, So i'm a little lost on which is which, Right now I know Peak season is about to start, and ends near the fall right?

I was thinking going in Winter but not too much near Xmas, and it's Unknown if i'm still going to Hawaii in Dec.

the time i mentioned earlier 11hr going and 9 hr returning, flight times, when i took JAL, actually less than that.
so you are going to postpone your trip to japan then?
then wait till fall, the prices will drop, so will the temperatures.
I just could'nt wait to go, so i booked it three weeks in advance and made the preparations to go to Japan. Love it all!! :applaud:

Something to do with blood. That's all I got. I need to pull out my kanji dictionary.

Edit: It's "Egao no kenketsu", or blood donation smiles. I suppose it's a way to say how happy you (and the donated) will be by giving blood.

yeah, the prg is working, think some other viewer prgs i had could've have done the same, but thanks anyways, i am using the one you showed me.
but probably will try to find a good travel weblog or online photoalbum to post my tons of japan pix, but here and there i am going to post some from my trip...great quality, but the video didn't come out that great.

no less than 1,000 pix?! dang, that is a lot, i think i took just under 600 pix, plus videos.

That's cool man. I always wanted to do videography / photography. As far as cards, just get some Avery business card paper, and print some out. :D

it's fun and stressful at the same time..

Like right now I told these people to hurry up and get this thing over with, editing this video thats going to be shown while i'm away but no.. they want to drag there feet, so I told them if it's not done on the day I leave then Oh well..

So I called them in the next day and told them to start now... I stayed working on the project from 3 pm all the way until 1AM and it's sitll not finnished, so Today at 11AM it's back to working on it..

Then on Sunday I have to film a Play in which I have to lug to XL2's and 2 heavy tripods and monitors..

Ugh it's a PITA, but fun.

I just love how people Clober me when I come back from a trip... WHich I'm glad my cellphone wont work in Japan, and I will only give out my VoIp Phone number to only a Slect few to call me on.

I can call Japan for 3.2 Cents a Min lol have not called yet but looking forward to seeing how it works out of state, and can't wait to get it on my Pda.
