In order to recover from the previous day (by avoiding walking too much throughout the city), I thought it could be useful to go to とうきょう東京 National Museum (at うえのこうえん上野公園) and feeding my mind as my feet could be smoothly sollicitated.
So, after the two subway stations separating my hotel and the うえ... [Read]

• Tokyo tour by feet
• Sun. Feb, 27 2005

Because of my "little rest" the day before, I was awoken at 5AM unable to find some more sleep to complete the night. After a vain try to sleep, I decided to leave my bed at 6AM for a good bath (after a good surprise the French football league on a Japanese channel at 5AM presented by Dabadie-san, former translator of P. Troussier when he was in charge of the Japanese national team). Once the bath was cold and emptied (with a noise coming from outerspace that should have been heard in the whole ... [Read]

Landing at 9AM (Tokyo local time, ie 1AM Paris local time), I knew that I would have to wait before being able to check in at my hotel/ However, luggages, customs, train and subway were also there to help me spending time. So I finally checked in at 1PM and, after a long difficult reflexion, I decided to have a quick rest before moving downtown to search a pub showing Ireland-France (6 nations rugby tournament) and having a couple of Guinness with locals. Decision full of consequences... Instead... [Read]

Of course, nothing special on that 8-hours shortened day. The plane was expected to leave Paris at 1:20PM (Paris/Malmö local time) and after a quick tour in the duty free area (especially the liquors shop for a magnificient present, signed Moet et Chandon) and the reading of a good "Midi Olympique" (thing that didin't happen since months, Midol being impossible to be found in Sweden), I was ready to take off...
Ready for 11 long hours of transportation from Paris to とӓ... [Read]

• Leaving or almost...
• Wed. Feb, 23^rd 2005

Braving a snowstorm ans slaloming between crashed cars, I finally arrive to Copenhagen to take my first plane leading to Paris. Or, almost!
Proud to have made it easily, I arrive at the counter one hour in advance for check-in . There, the stewardess informed us that the flight was cancelled due to heavy snow in Paris. Heavy snow? Could that be worse than in Sturup where we couldn't see further than 10 meters? Which kind of snow fall would prevent planes from taking off (whereas no problem was ... [Read]

• Slow down
• Mon. Feb, 21^st 2005

I have to admit (and also to apologise) that the site updates are running low these last days... However, even if there is too few updates, I also have to say that plenty of events occur in my life (like this week-end in Stockholm) and, added to plenty of work, I can't find time to update the site...
Fortunately, this wednesday will be the start of the holidays. And Friday will be the day I will leave France for Japan. And that, for three weeks. So, one hand that will imply me having a lot of f... [Read]
