Travel - 4 January 2007

So I'm making a trek through Asia from mid-April to the end of June. Originally I was planning to start in Japan, but now I'm thinking of finishing there. Why? Simply for packing/wardrobe reasons. If I go in mid-April, I'll have to wear shoes and socks, and long sleeves (for at least the evenings). If I went the last week of June, I would just need the clothing I'll be wearing for the rest of my trip (sandals, light pants, shorts, etc). Therefore, i'll have to pack more stuff if I go in april.


So, my question: I know April is supposed to be a great time to visit to Japan due to the cherry blossoms, pleasant weather, and all, but is it significantly better than the end of June?

Why is it they ask you not to have electronics on when you take off in an airplane, yet you can turn them on when you are in the air? And why are no phones allowed on in an airplane?

I stumbled upon it once. The articles come from various french sources, and you pay for an entire article. I can't find it anymore. However, anyone is free to suggest other sites.

Hi,
We're moving over to Sydney next year, and are considering locating in the Northern Beaches, but I'm after some guidance on which particular suburb to choose.

We're a young family in our 30's with a 5 and a 3 year old, so we want the mix of beach and a good town nearby, a good school, and transport links into Sydney CBD.

Pricewise, we'd be after a 4 bedroom house priced between $700 and $1m, which I know won't get me beach-front, but I'm hoping to be within walking distance of the beach.
Any advice on which areas might be better than others?

I've heard the popularity of the Euro in Romania has increased significantly, even though Romania has not officially switched from the RON, until they can stablize their currency.

Does anyone have some cultural expertise on the popularity of the Euro in Romania? Especially in Bucharest.

Over the years, I have heard some really wild stories about people's travels in Romania. The place sounds like a combination toxic waste dump and wild, wild, west. This seems escharest and Ploiesti. Is this all bunk, or is there some truth to it?
