Mickey Mouse "bourbon" at Narita

2013.04.01-IMG_1465Bought a bottle of water at NRT on my way back from Seoul. It was water, with a charming Mickey & Minnie Mouse design on the label. Why, however, it was also labeled, "Bourbon" is a mystery to me!

Must just be a Japanese thing!

Not a Razorgirl in Sight ...

Well, Narita (NRT) was a bit of a disappointment!

I guess I've read too many William Gibson novels, but I was expecting something a little more cyberpunk here on the edge of Chiba City. So, instead of lots of glittering chrome or rusted wrecks, I found a very calm and quiet airport with the usual moving sidewalk, a couple of duty free shops, and a take-away sushi place.

Except for the duty free shops and sushi place (well, maybe not even that), I would have sworn I was in any medium town airport USA (say, Columbia, SC or Raleigh-Durham, NC).

So, Case, see you in the SimStim ...
