I can't think of anything to say about today, except that I have still not started packing at all, and now it's like TWO DAYS until I go back.

I put my big set of photos from Sunday's Marines-Hawks game online.

I'm thinking of adding a Nagoya/Gifu trip into my Golden Week plans, going down for the 4/29 Chunichi Dragons baseball game in Gifu, assuming Jeff can get tickets. I think it might be fun to take either local trains or a kodama down on that Monday (local trains take 7 hours, woohoo), stay somewhere, go around Nagoya or Gifu Tuesday afternoon, go to game Tuesday night, and try to take back that Moonlight train thingy teravell always talks about. Then I will hit a new stadium and like ninety new kinds of trains in one trip! Wheeee! Then a day later I'd be off to Hokkaido! Travel is fun!

Packing is overrated. Just get a big ol' suitcase, stuff a bunch of random clothes in, you're good.

Heh, I think it's a little bit different for an inter-continental trip -- gotta pack all the things I want to bring back to America, plus plan to have enough room to bring NEW stuff back to Japan with me...

I usually don't pack until the night before (and really can't; both my Japan trips were on days immediately after I had finals, and I use my backpack for traveling too). Just make a checklist, follow it, and you should be good.

Reminds me, I better get around to planning my most likely last Japan trip before attempting to move.
