Want to know how to save around 1500 yen when you purchase the JR’s Narita Express & a Suica card combo if your purchase it at the airport? It’s a special deal only foreign tourist (yay! that's my team!) for those who can present a foreign passport at the time of purchase.
A suica card is like an Oyster card (to us in the UK), an Octopus Card (to people in HK), more like a wireless payment card where users just wave and go on the reader. By purchasing both the journey and the card at the same time, you will save 1500 yen already which is pretty sweet since you can have a pretty decent meal when you arrive at your destination in Japan! Take a look at this video where you can be a tourist in this video of a look around Narita Airport and how to get this deal.
Right, JAP-On! Team, Fairchild has purchased us Xmas Tickets to Tokyo so pack your bags! And thank Fairchild for the airline tickets! ^__^

So to round of this week, here are some odds and ends of what has been happening in Japan this week!
First, we have a chimpanzee being taught how to eat various Japanese foods:
Next we have a toilet that tells you how it feels after being flushed...
And finally, one of Japan's major airports has introduced single seat electric tricycles that will be used to patrol the airport halls and information desks. The tricycles, developed by Toyota, can operate at a top speed of 15 kilometres per hour. Some of those used at Chubu Airport will also carry emergency medical kit and computers that will allow airport staff to check flight schedules for passengers. I soo want to have a ride on those!!!

Hurray! It's finally completed! I have been putting this little project of mine down so many times (being diverted to help on someone else's sites, like Pacidlux and the ever increasing Ongaku Forums) that my own personal area keeps being postponed. Now it's finally tweaked so many times from it's original theme from yichi till I've only kept the barebones of the theme!
Hopefully, I can now use this to blog what I do much around here :P
But now, I have this video to show everyone! Although it was pretty common around the world, this video is kinda funny from the way the woman thinks it is the end of the world after missing her flight!
