Last stop Fuji

So my last day here has arrived. It's both a bit sad to leave this strange place, but I'm also starting to look forward to regular life (or just any kind of stability).

The goal for today is Mt Fuji, where I'm aiming for the top. See you there.

Kumamoto

Er i det sydlige japan i Kumamoto. Er noget traet. Det er mest vandskab til at vandre i, men varmen inviterer ikke ligefrem til det. Smutter til Tokyo igen om nogle dage for at se Studio Ghibli.

Nagasaki

Hiroshima was not much fun in itself, but the peace musuem was touching.

I'm currently in Hataka, but it isnt very interesting. So I'm going to Nagasaki and then nearby Unzen. Unzen has many hot springs and, daa daa daaa, a volcano :)

Hiroshima

The Shinkansen was pretty fast. Not even enough time to sleep - even though I could use some relax very much.

Got to (hot) hiroshima and spend most of the day wandering around the parks and especially the peace museum. Seeing this is a must-do when visiting japan, very emotional.

Otherwise, I've had some great okonomiyaki, a few beers and heading to bed now. No more energy left :(

I'm getting lazy with the picture updates, but I'll throw everything on flickr, when I come home.

Rain rain go away

It's only raining in the north, so I decided to take the train 20 hours to the south. So now I'm in Osaka, with a whole day of tiredness in the body.

Thinking Straight

Going for the brewery.

Upload Celebration Night

So, my plan was simply to go to the center of the fifth biggest city of Japan, find a big commercial internet cafe and upload my pictures. Sounds simple right? - given Japan's buttload of technology thingies and internet telegraphy.

It's not quite so. (also I think backwards)

Given my perfect execution of the plan the only remaining item, before going to Club Air or 500, is to upload the pictures. I already bought pro-access to Flickr so it was just a matter of click-and-go.

Ofcause, being given a machine in my hands, I have to try to make it better. It also mostly worked, except that I've now wasted an hour of upload time, that could have been used on good partying (read drinking).

Main two problems:
1) Flickr's fancy upload manager tells me that I only have 170 KBps upload :(
2) The damn thing halts after uploading 16 items. I also had to take two tries to establish that.
[3) Aircondition is broken]

Good thing is that the staff gave me an hour for free as a bandaid (maybe for them not understanding the sentence "more upload please?"). There's also free coke here (party party) and beer in the local Lawson (read Lolson (and replace l->r))

Stand by for more grilled thingies on a stick,
your truely,
