No kids for a whole week!

So this weekend Taz is heading up to Kitakami City - A place where Unicorns graze eating magical grass and shit out rainbows, and the towns folk all live in in Mushroom shaped houses. On the weekend they all come together in the town square to dance, carry giant lollipops and generally be gay and merry.

Well... Not exactly but those are the lies I persuaded her with to come here. It will be good to see another foreigner in my city seeing as I haven't really spoken English face to face with some one for a while.

On Monday we are going to head down to Osaka for a few days. Osaka is the city in Japan that is meant to be the most fun. While other cities inherited tradition, formality and a relentless obedience of social rules Osaka took the attitude. They speak with a cooler accent than those above Tokyo and are pretty big on music, cars and having a good time. I can't wait to see what it is like.

After that we will hit up Tokyo. Hopefully I get to go to Tokyo Disneyland again. When I left that place at Christmas I also left a part of me at the exit. Child Mike. He is trapped in there, most probably standing in the lost property building waiting - yearning for me to come and pick him up, give him a hug and run off to Space Mountain again. Seriously, being in that place is like taking some wonderful drug for a day. I'm positive I saw Disney endorsed patches in the gift store so that people don't have to come down from it cold turkey like I did.

Anyways, as always I will be taking my camera so expect a few pictures when I get back. I just realized I still haven't put up my photos from Christmas so I think I'll need to upload them when I get back as well.

I'm sure there will be plenty of stories for you... I have an uncanny habit of attracting trouble and mischief what ever part of Japan I am in.

What?!?! If you'd told me Kitakami had Unicorns that shat out rainbows, I would've stayed longer!

Obviously this "magical grass" doesn't have enough fibre in it...

It is a well know fact that among all the animals in the animal kingdom the Unicorn is by far the most skilled when it comes to shitting out rainbows. Do not blame me for your ignorance!! :@

It is difficult for them to smoke anything as Unicorns lack fingers. The like to snort lines of 'Whizz Fizz' or so they say... But I've never seen Whizz Fizz give some one the shakes when they come down from it... I suspect foul play!

I don't think I can get your soul back... If it's in the small world ride... It could be in any one of the stereotyped displays!
