ches: Ghibli Museum reservations booked solid for summer vacation. It might be time to just show up and play the ignorant gaijin card.

ches: @snowyukiko It's definitely one for the scrapbook. Altogether hilarious experience :-)

ches: Tomorrow: I take on the Western side of the city.

ches: @DwightTurner Hah, I haven't dared to actually ask...

ches: @DwightTurner @bo_ho @snowyukiko I've been on the lookout but haven't seen that stuff yet. Saw something called "Coolish" at 7-11...

ches: @DwightTurner Sounds like a Mission Impossible.

ches: @rockzha Aw, I'm not sure Rocky's looking very certain about that in this photo :-)

ches: @warisara Wax people?! Now what'd I do to earn that title?

ches: @snowyukiko Sadly I can't get a SIM with a sane data rate for less than $30 US a day, but I'll try...

ches: @bo_ho I can't hear it without picturing you making a little circle with your fingers, and then I get hysterical /cc @DwightTurner

ches: @bo_ho LMAO ;-)

ches: Japanese have taken toilet technology too far.

ches: @snowyukiko I noticed it's in the phrases section of my travel guide, just in case I need to jog my memory ;-)

ches: Tokyo-bound. Honestly can't remember the last time I took a real vacation.

ches: @DwightTurner If @ladykarla45 didn't shotgun a beer like she mentioned earlier, I have a mission upon returning.

ches: @littleidea Also, packaging.

ches: @warisara Derilicte?

ches: @chariya My lists are still here? I agree, great to put overly chatty friends on a list instead of my main stream ;-)

ches: @chariya I know right? Before I left for a couple of weeks, it was only raining in the a.m. or late night. Now it's anytime I want to go out
