Well, here I am sitting in front of my computer looking forward to my week off work but hang on! Since when was It only 60 days till I arrive in Japan!!!  
When I was starting a countdown for Japan it was 250 days, time really does fly and I have some stuff to plan for when I am away in Japan.

I am aiming this week to start letting you all know about some of the fun things I will be doing when I am in Tokyo

Fun Fact: Japanese trains are among the world’s most punctual: their average delay is just 18 seconds!
