Hey everyone I made it to Japan, with no problems...kind of...

*Notice the time that is posted on this blog is Canadian Time*
Toyko time 3:12 as of this writing

It has been only a day or so since I arrived in Japan but it feels like an eternity
whole crap...Talk about a fish out of water..more on that later but now..
So I woke up around 7:00am and had breakfast around 8:30 and left for the shuttle around 9:40. When I got to the Airport I checked it, it was fast since I could check in at the hotel.
I had placed my bag on the scale and the attendant had noticed that my zipper was broken o the top and told me that she wouldn't put a suit case like that on the plane and that ut might open all the way. She had suggested to my that I go buy a new one. They where $200 and above at the store in the Airport so I looked around for shop that sold a sewing kit I could fix it with I found one and fixed my suitcase up then sent it on it's way. Also I had lot of time so I tried to access the wireless internet I found a assess point that was free I tried to get onto it but was stopped I needed to have a Telus account to use it, since I am not fond of Telus I didn't want to create an account. So that is why I didn't update...

The Flight was suppose to be leaving at 1:40pm but didn't leave until 2:30(because some of the seats where broken) and man that was long flight, I don't think that I have recovered from the jet lag yet.
After about 8 hours my leg started to cramp up so I shoved my bag under the seat and stenched a bit. But the nice thing was that a cute Asian girl was siting next to me.
There where three movies playing Oceans 13, Ghost and Spider-man 3, plus some news and other programs, I mostly listened to the my mp3 player and looking out side of my window seat.
Around 5pm the flight attendant asked everyone to close the windows so for several hours I couldn't see where we where.
During the flight there where several times when the plane experienced turbulence, noting really bad though. During the flight I only got maybe about 2-3 hours sleep.

The plane landed at Narita Airport and I had limped part of the way down the terminal to the immigration office, which took about 20mins fast walking to reach it. There was maybe about 100-200 people lined up for non-Japanese passports, with in a few moments the line that was the end was put to the other side. So the 100 people became 10 and I was through with my visa in a matter of moments. I had some trouble locating my suitcase but I soon found it with some help and I was on my way to the next part , baggage search, there was no problem and I was let lose on the land of Japan.

I thought that the easiest way of getting to Shinjuku was buy bus (3000 yen)
What I didn't think of was getting a ticket first...So I bought the ticket and waited about half an hour for the next bus, there was a bus that was stopping every 5mins but the bus I was taking was arriving at 6:10pm at terminal #2. I had hoped on the bus and was headed towards Shinjuku, or rather the Shinjuku Washington Hotel.
It took about an hour and a half to arrive along the way I saw the famous Tokyo Tower, I was wanted to take a picture but I wasn't in a window seat an I didn't want to disrupt the nice lady next to me, also there was a billboard with Tommy Lee Jones for a drink called BOSS(I only know it's a drink because I see it in almost every vending machine)

I had made it to the hotel (I didn't have a reservation, I was trying my luck) and I headed up to the 3rd floor where the non-Japanese registration was. One night was 10,400 yen.
