We're back....

While the trip report is churning itself out, I'll share a joke/warning/ghastly news... My keyboard weighed 17KG at check-in - a shocker since the actual weight is only 8kg - may be the pedal, adaptor and flight case. Anyway, the boys helped me lug it to Tokyo over escalators, trains and stairs, apart from carrying their own luggage and gear. Quite a nightmare. The best part: when we tried to use it, it didn't work. Turns out the voltage in Japan is way below Singapore's, so a converter won't work. You'd need a transformer for that, and it costs in Japan.

And so, I brought 17kg over those thousands of miles FOR NOTHING.

Somebody punch me.
