Day 1 - Wednesday/Thursday - Get there!

Aussie contingent:
  • Trevor and Linda Johnstone
  • Ray and Jake Zarb
  • John and Daniel Neilson
  • Andrew Doré and
  • moi, Andy Cooke!
Flight all OK about 9 hours from Sydney to Narita.

Train trip to Tokyo hustle bustle. Still no idea how to book a ticket without much mutual confusion all good fun!

Another train ride to Shizuoka about an hour at very high speed from Tokyo passed Mt Fuji - damn big!

Met the Tamiya dude Mr Hiro Hane, he was to be our guide for the rest of the trip, Hiro is great, very friendly and helpful and he likes to laugh at Andrew Dore! You've got to watch him though, he can be very sneaky if you're not careful just ask Jake!

All the Aussie team are excited and now very tired!

We were taken out for dinner at a little Japanse restaurant and ate heaps, I knew what some of it was, but it was all good!

That completes the planes and trains section - tomorrow and the next two days will be cars!
