Thursday night we had a meeting talking about arranging our flights. We have to fly to LAX in California, where we will all meet up and then fly out to Australia!!!! During the meeting Mrs. Atchley, one of the coordinators, said there was a chance for a select few to make a stop-over in Tokyo, Japan.
Now, Tokyo is very expensive. The directors of HUA were telling us to set aside $400 per DAY. The burgers and drinks at fast food total to be about $10 EACH, and a taxi cost $7 just to get inside! It is the most expensive city to live in the world, according to the latest Cost of Living Survey from Mercer.
One serving of sushi rolls in a restaurant costs about $9.68.
Pizza delivery (1 piece)? $22.64.
One serving of Tendon Tempura Rice Bowl? $11.17
One serving of curry rice? $7.43
One SINGLE cup of COFFEE....... $4.88
Yeah.. I'll say Tokyo's expensive! Though it would be fun to see Japan and its culture, I think I'll have to spend my money elsewhere, like horseback riding down the Lord of the Rings trail in New Zealand!
