Greetings from Japan everyone! I arrived the day before yesterday. Before I came here, I thought it would be a fish out of water scenario. I'd be drowning in gibberish and wouldn't be able to navigate around Tokyo at all. But its actually been pretty easy. All the signs are written in english as well as Japanese and alot of people here to speak atleast a little english. Although, food can be an issue. They don't put english on food packaging. When I first arrived here, it was really hot outside and I went into a 7/11. I bought what I thought from the look of it was a strawberry popsicle. After I started eating it, I realized it was a pomegranate popsicle! And Japan is really cheap as well. I just bought a bottle of perfume that would sell in Canada for about $60. I bought it for the equivalent of $30!

Anway, I'll post some pics later.
