It’s a bit stuffy in here, but all in all it’s not bad. There’s an outlet for me to charge my iPhone. There’s enough room for me to stretch my legs all the way out. There’s even a little tv in here! I’m a bit unnerved by the fact that there’s a pay-per-view porn box attached to the tv, though. These things aren’t exactly soundproof. I hope the dude above me doesn’t decide to indulge…
This will be my room for the night. A bit small, sure, but for $15 a night who am I to complain?
I’ve been to Tokyo so very many times now, but there are still things I’ve never experienced. Tonight is my first ever stay in a ‘capsule hotel.’
So long, Australia!! My vacation is officially halfway over. Now it’s back to Tokyo for one night and then off to my hometown, St. Louis!
Moving on up north to Brisbane and saying farewell to the Gold Coast for now. Here’s a little collection of memories from the past few days.
Last day in Gold Coast before we head up north to Brisbane. The very tall building on the left is the Q1 tower, the tallest building in Gold Coast. We went to the top a couple nights ago. It is a great view, but it’s $20 per person to go up and I don’t really think it was worth it. The beach is way more entertaining, and it’s free.
About Me
My name is Lawrence Denes.After spending 5 years studying Japanese language, culture, literature, and history in St. Louis and Kyoto, I now live in Japan, in a town that most Japanese people have never even heard of, lost amid the rice fields and vending machines.
