And Away we Go >>>>
After a few lovely days with various families in Perth we are finally underway First stop a 4 hour stop over in one of my favourite Airports ..Changi in Singapore,there is always plenty to do in there and Annie literally walked me for miles whilst there!!A big attraction is the HUGE Electronic roundabout board consisting of large screens about 3 storys high and circular in construction with lots of strobeing lights and the aim is for the public to pose in front of cameras around this structure and “paste” selfies of themselves on the roundabout for all to view.Not being afraid of challenges like this our photograph is firmly esconced within this mighty structure !! With an hour or so left till boarding for Japan,out came the Laptop and we watched THREE episodes of the latest Corrie St!!Our flight with Qantasfrom Perth was great as we had THREE seats between me n Annie to spread ourselves on. When boarding the flight to Japan on JAL Airlines (not overly impressed with them) we had our first encounter with Japanese people and their amazing manners ( there were around 6 European passengers) Boarding was a breeze as Japanese travelers stayed in their seats until THEIR seat numbers were called as opposed to Europeans who all want to get on a plane at the same time ! Flight food was very salty,the plane was older than Annie and the confined seat spaces I,m sure were in place are just for Japanese passengers !! Flight attendants were luvli and very gracious.Our transport collected us at the busy Hanida Airport, he was elderly but what a gentleman as are the hotel staff who booked us in 5 hours early.We have done abit of food shopping and tried the local Japanese eatery where and Egg n Bacon toasie with Salad & Iced Coffee cost around $ 11 for thw 2 of us with service !! It has to be said the shower was most welcome and the toilet that has a hot & cold bum wash is an experience in itself !! Annie is currently studying the local underground service that we will try out very soon !! More on the next Blog
