Hi Lesley, I'm travelling to Heathrow the day before we travel.I've got a deal with parking and one nights accomodation. Beats the worry of gettimng stuck in a traffic jam on the day. Not sure how I will get on with the language but sure I will get by. Sounds as if its going to be a nice group of people. Regards Pam

Hi Pat, Sounds as if it will be a nice sized group. The weeks are ticking by before we know it we will be on our way . Its going to be an experience of a life time. Have you booked on any of the extra trips?Regards Pam

Konichiwa Pat, I can't believe in 6 wks time we will be on our way to Japan.I'm really starting to get excited .I think we have picked a good time to visit- weather wise. I'm already started to think about what clothes to take. Which is unusual for me as I always leave things until the last minute. Pam

Hi Pam & Lesley Ann I had a good easter thks I would like to say not too many chocs but I can't. Six weeks !!! its about this time I start to think it seemed a good idea at the time though I'm sure once I'm on the plane I will be fine. The weather is so good today I might even cut the grass.
