If anyone wants some Cadbury (or may be English tea) when the Baloos are over for their grand adventure please E-mail me (address is in my profile) If we are not set to meet I'll bring some over and mail it saving the international postage. So if you are like AJandHollysmommy and have a hankering for Cirlywhirys or just want to find out what all the fuss is about let me know.

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I have a deal for you, Sarah. You come spend two weeks at our place next year. I bring the sunshine and the pool. You bring the chocolate.
Originally Posted By Mr X **Mr X I would be more than happy too mail you some goodies if you get me your address.** Thank you, sweetie! You don't have to put yourself out though. Just make with the chocolate when you come to Japan, k? ;D (p.s. DavewasBaloo already has my address I think...if not, send me an email cause you need to know where to show up for the HUGE PARTY when you guys come to Japan!!)

Unfortunately, I don't have a pool, so you'll have to take a detour to Liberty Belle's ;-)

Originally Posted By Mr X lol... I used to think Tokyo was cold in winter (compared to Florida anyway)...but my recent experience in the great NorthEast has completely changed my opinion of my current hometown.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Mr X - we are still saving. I want to wait to be big enough to enjoy Japan and have some memories before we come across, so I think in 2 years would be good (also if HK can sort themselves out, we would visit HKDL as a stopover). I would love to come sooner, but with school schedules and budgets, this could be an issue (I got some killer deals on the West Coast for our 2008 adventure through the week dollar and some Marriott bonuses). I hope to get over sooner, but realistically, I think we are looking at 2010 (unless I get an awesome bonus next year).
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo beamerdog - if the exchange rate continues, we have been considering going to Washington DC and Williamsburg in the future, I think a visit could be in order then!

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo American chocolate tastes very different than British Chocolate. British chocolate melts into a buttery consistancy and is not as sugary sweet. It is my favorite chocolate in the world. I used to like Hershey's but not anywhere as much as the European version.
