Japanese Toilet 06/25/2009
 

On our way to Thailand we stopped in Japan, and I was fascinated with the toilets.

At first glance it looks like a typical toilet, until you check out the buttons on the side..........

You have a plethora of options to assist you with you duty..... (pun?). My favorite being the flushing sound that you can use to disguise your  bodies embarrassing sounds. And yes you can control the volume.  Last but not least if you look to the far right you can see a deodorizer, but not just any, it is a "powerful deodorizer". If you get the chance, check out these toilets, they are second to none.
 
1st Class Travel 06/01/2009
 

As you all know, I just spent the last 6 weeks in Thailand. I have a friend that works for an airline, and through her connections and a lot of luck, I managed to get a first class ticket on my flight to Japan. One word for you............... RIDICULOUS!!!! First of all there was only 10 people in our whole cabin, and there are only 4 seats per row across the whole plane. I started off with what felt like a 10 course meal, and ate for at least 2 hours straight. You don't have to watch the same movies that economy has, instead you get to choose whatever movies you want from a bin and watch them on your own personal player. I felt like a kid at Disney world trying to take everything in because I didn't know the next time I would get to be back. But my favorite part of it all was the fact that my seat turned into a bed............
