Forthcoming Trip to Tokyo

00:02.47 - Saturday 11th February 2006   (Link to This Entry)

As my birthday treat to myself, I'm planning a trip to Tokyo for September of this year. I've snagged myself a basic language course on DVD and a small (and slightly out of date) guide book and I'm planning on doing a crash course over the next few months.

Mooching about the Internet today I found cheap economy-class flights over at WorldWideFlights.com and a cheap 2-and-a-half-star hotel on Expedia that brought the total flight/hotel cost down to under £1400 - two people for two weeks.

My only problem now is who I'm taking. M decided I'd spend too much time looking at gadgets so I asked my brother, but he doesn't think he can script up the £1000 or spending money, so M has said she might go if he doesn't. I really need to book the stuff pronto to get the cheap flight prices, too.

The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the 15-hour flight, or whatever the hell it is.
