Will Plan C Succeed?

Situation changed in a snap. We had to cancel our plan to move to London. Then just when I was preparing things to travel to London and Europe for a vacation (Plan B), suddenly another thing came - so again I had to cancel it. (I just cancelled the tickets )

So now I moved to Plan C: Japan. Now that my sister is in Jakarta, we are planning the itinerary together. Utsunomiya, Nikko, Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, Yokohama, Nagoya, Kyoto, Nara. The first destination is where my sister lives.

It's still a question if my sister can get a JR railpass, because she lives in Japan. Maybe not?

We were thinking about going to the Expo and see Kiccoro & Morizo, which means I'll go a few days before September 25, the last day of the Expo. But then we think it's OK to miss it and that I'd better come in October and see momiji... *i can't wait*

The cheapest air ticket to Tokyo is either with Garuda or Thai. With Garuda I can get a direct flight. However, with Thai I can use the transit time to stay for a couple of nights and get to see Bangkok as we did last time.

Now I'm trying to overcome the difficulties with those weirdos at work, get big things done, then I'll earn the long vacation. Unfortunately the one who should approve my vacation request is one of those weirdos...

But think about my goal. I've been missing Japan, I want to explore it more. And it's exciting that I'll have to force myself to speak the language again. And I'll see our friend Tomoko again after our last vacation together in Putri Island. And Yuki again after a few years . And I'll probably see Ken, my メール友 ("mail friend") at last.

Now... face the weirdos! 頑張れ！
