I know Pigs can't fly, but Flying Sushi?

So here in Japan, in a dark back street just a minute away from JR Shimbashi station, you can find a place run by an 80-year-old man who likes to throw his sushi in the air... Why throw you ask? Apparantly it will make the sushi taste greater! So by taking the sushi chef to another location, such as the gymnasium, they revealed that he has the ability to throw it nearly 4 meters into the air as well as tasting good! Well let's drool at this video! So anything willing to throw a block of wood in teh air next to your guest? I guess this needs the DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME! :P

Saving money on JR’s Narita Express & Suica card Combo

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! ^__^ [JapanTravelTV]
