• Japanese casino

    Looks like Japan may finally build a casino. Likely built on an artificial island as there is no space left.

      Guess I arrived too soon. I'm in Tokyo right now (where it's 6:30 AM on Sunday).

      Funny. Only time I was near Tokyo was running between planes at Narita.

      Will be there tomorrow to head home. Flew into Haneda a few weeks ago. Haneda significantly closer to the city, but my only option for a non-stop home was Narita. There's a high speed train to Narita which takes about an hour.

      Last train was Kyoto to Tokyo on bullet train. Top speed was 197 mph. Still not as fast as the train I was on in Shanghai.

      And they're still improving the trains, in Japan and China. We used to be able to build trains and "tracks", long ago.

      I've always found it amazing that a country prone to earthquakes can have high-speed trains.
