Snow...

Sigh... Snow...
Looks like I can't get away from the white stuff no matter where I go!
Looks like a blizzard is on its way, all I see is white when I look out the window. Can't even see the mountains!

Anyway, I hear its also snowing pretty hard back in Toronto. Apparently they are expecting 20cms over the course of this week, which kinda sucks. I just hope they don't ground the planes, otherwise I won't be able to spend the break with my Dad! But I still remain an optimist ;)

And let me add... I love Tokyo... Literally. I love how insanely complecated the train system is!
Greater Tokyo Area JR Train Map (PDF File)
Tokyo Metro (Subway) Map (PDF File)

Take a look at that insanity! Thank God for the traffic guide on vodafone live!

In the first map, the main part of Tokyo is around the Yamanote Line. Pretty much everything outside the circle is the "Greater Tokyo" area, which spans 4 prefectures. It's interesting to note that the middle stop between Tokyo and Ueda on the Nagano Shinkansen is Takasaki... Notice how it's part of the GTA :P

The second map is mostly within the main area of Tokyo (within the Yamanote Line Zone), and its still crazy complicated!
