It's not that big as it looks, it's like 28x15cm

Made from the lid of a shoe box

Yeey, only 2 nights sleep and I'm off ;p

Good news, I have arrived! We have had a quick look around, getting used to the underground. Not as hard as I thought. The bad news so far, the first reseller shop we visited only has arena tickets, not a single centre ticket. Going to have to look around tomorrow.

Oh, good to hear more people will be coming

Hatix · #45 2nd May 2007, 10:37 AM

Okay, the reseller shop mentioned in the guide sticky was the one I was talking about above. Just come back from having a look around the Ueno area and found the reseller shop there, a much bigger selection of tickets are there. Still, I'm going to check where else I can tomorrow before I make my purchase.

In other news, its possible I have had Y90000 stolen

I split my money between my wallet and my luggage. However, I haven't been able to find the money from my luggage. I did however grab a few things from my suitcase before we left at a friends house, I'm awaiting a reply to see if this is the case, I hope so

Oh, abd finally worked out how to call back to the UK with a phonecard

Hatix · #47 2nd May 2007, 02:40 PM

Yeah, that reseller shop in Ueno is bigger than the one in Harajuku, so it's good to hear there's a much bigger selection there.

That's aweful, having lost so much money. I always keep my money in my wallet, which I guard with my life (so to say). If it was stolen, it would be very strange to have happened in Japan. So it could mean that it is still in the UK when you grabbed those things from your suitcase...
Anyway, good luck!

Enjoy the trip!

How hard is it to find those Post offices where you can draw out money with Visa Electron?

And kel64 what store in Ueno, I couldn't find any info... blind me

Hatix · #50 2nd May 2007, 07:19 PM

The store in Ueno is front of Keisei Ueno station, just on the other side of the street. Easy to find. It was talked about in immel's tutorial thread.

There should quite a lot of post offices in Tokyo, don't know if they all have the visa draw possibility. Just look for that red T with a line above it. I had a paper map I bought here in a big store, and it had them indicated. I can give some locations of them if you want.

(only 13 hours until my plane leaves

)

Joeyoh · #52 2nd May 2007, 11:26 PM

I am so excited! I can't wait to see everyone

Blasterion · #53 3rd May 2007, 12:34 AM

hi guys I'm leaving in a few hours, I'm so tired right now, I hope all goes well..
Well see you guys on the other side

Joeyoh · #54 3rd May 2007, 01:57 AM

Oh man I think ill be the last one to get there.

My flight is May 6th

ayu1m · #55 3rd May 2007, 07:25 AM

My flight is less than 5 hours away

So if you see 2 white guys touring around Shinjuku looking amazed, that's us

kel64 · #56 3rd May 2007, 11:51 AM

My update for today. The reseller shop in Shinjuku had the best tickets I saw so far, so I picked up a B1 centre ticket for Y20000. Thats several thousand Y cheaper than they were selling for on Yahoo JP

As for my money, its definitely not anywhere around. I can only assume it was taken during our stopover in amsterdam, we were on our way before we would realise. I'm calling my travel insurance to see what I can do later.

As for post offices, we have seen surprisingly little so far, seen just the one so far in Shinjuku. They are easy to spot though, this one had a large sign in English, though I'm not sure if they all do.

Last thing, we visited Tokyo Tower today, going to the very top. If you plan to go, be prepared to queue for a very long time

Sim' · #57 3rd May 2007, 07:17 PM

Oh, lucky you, enjoy the concert =D

May I ask you your budgets when you come back ?
How many $ you spend on fly, hotel, food, ect... ?
And, did you save your money for long time ago already ?

No, I'm not coming, not right now xD [Moneeeeeey]
But I'm REALLY interested for the coming years~
But again... Moneeeeeeeeeeeey xD

Where in Shinjuku is the shop (found it already, now I should discover the location : D). Our 10h flight went well and now we've travelled around Shinjuku for the past few hours. I have seen 2 post offices and they sure are easy to find. I also saw an PS3 20gb version for 29k yen which was hella cheap

Sry to hear about your money, hopefully the insurance covers it up at least a little.

Yeah, one of my friends is tempted by the PS3 too

Tempted by the 60" Sony LCD myself

Anyway, bought tickets for to see the start of the Sumo tournament on the 13th, should be fun heh. Worth noting that there is fee free training session tomorrow which you can go and watch, plus entry to the museum. Also bought tickets for baseball, which we are going to see tomorrow. The tokyo dome area is quite impressive, we will be coming back one day to go on the rides all day

We were close to the Sony exhibition building so we had a look there. The Tv's and cameras are so impressive

Thats my little update for today anyway. Hope you enjoy my little bit of blogging.

ayu1m · #60 4th May 2007, 01:30 PM

Okay... where should I start,

Seriously, where in the gods name is the reseller-store? We've walked probably over 20km's over Shinjuku and we haven't found it. Almost only positive thing is that we found Book-off where I bought 2 cds.

And, normal sushi and noodles, why can't we find those either D: Just regular sushi rolls and noodles... There aren't any in Shinjuku?! There are millions of those where you have all kinds of stuff with your noodles or sushi, but I want the damn regulars : D

And my feet hurt.

kel, how did you managed to get tickets to a sumo match..? Does your friend speak japanese or something?
