My Adventures In Japan – Day 9
Tuesday 13th November 2012 We woke up a bit late this morning so swapped the schedule over and did our “last day” things today. We bought one-day passes for the Metro so we could scoot about all over the place, and this cost ¥710. You can also get a one-day pass which does the Metro…

If only we’d know while dragging our suitcases up and down all those stairs that the next street along was flat all the way. *sighs* Here’s a bit about crossing the road. Signals are pretty much the same here with…
