That attendant guy does sound creepy! How weird. I am glad that you got out of there. Are you still living in Australia right now? If so I bet it is better than being back home in Toronto. It is cold here right now. I am from Michigan and now live in Virginia and the weather is crazy.
Did you get your money back? I hope that you did!
Welcome!! Thats awesome! Where else are you planning on going? I'm dyinggg to go to Thailand! You will love Tokyo Disney it's amazing! I will stick with this report because there's not much out there on TD and I know it was annoyign when I was trying to plan, so hopefully my TR will provide some good info! And also I'm on winter break right now for another 2 1/2 months so I have no excuse not to finish it!
I'm glad you got out of there - sounds like a serial killer! It's good you were able to get a hotel room.
I am going to Newcastle in Feb - DH will be working there for a little while. We are planning to take the train to Sydney and spend one night so we can do some sight seeing. It looks like most of the hotels are $200 - $400 a night for not much room. Do you have any recommendations?
If all go as planned i will be spending about 3 weeks touring china, 5 days in Cambodia at Ankhor Wat, the 4 days in Bangkok, the 8 days touring Japan with my Disney 3 day Adventure. I can't wait! I am stil trying to figure out how I am going to pack... I will be visiting so many different climates
Ya I was happy we were able to find a room as well. That guy was creeepy! I haven't been to Sydney yet, but hotels in Australia are expensive. It seems the choices are stay super cheap (at a hostel) or else pay $200 bucks a night for a hotel, especially near the tourist areas. Actually, from what I've found, everything is really expensive in Australia!
That being said, I think that Expedia is having a sale on rooms right now, maybe check that out!
These Toilets are AWESOME!
Notice the lady in the mask. I originally thought Japanese people wore these masks to keep out germs (which maybe they do) but from what I figured out in Japan people watching, and watching commercials for the mask, people actually wear these when they are sick, to keep from spreading the germs! Now I may be wrong about this, but thats what I understood from what I saw. Oh.. and no I wasn't taking a photo of the lady because she was wearing a mask lol. I was taking a photo of Craig and realised after there was a lady in a mask in it and thought I should share what I learnt!
Hey! You made it to Tokyo and to your hotel with ease! So glad your journey went well. I'm excited to see your adventure begin!
Yep. That's the custom in Japan. During winter, you will see a lot of people (young and old) wearing masks everywhere. They also sell funny/crazy masks too.
