I'm pretty sure that, if you did ask, there may be some fussing around as the station worker tries to remember where they are kept!<br /><br />Emsk: I never would have guessed that you were surprised to reach us when we met in Shibuya! I'm glad you did find you way though. :-)<br /><br />Thanks Orchid64https://www.blogger.com/profile/07132543155589881288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103914919249706024.post-64369220315168410522013-01-09T12:13:14.813-08:002013-01-09T12:13:14.813-08:00I love taking the subway/metro/tube in other citie...I love taking the subway/metro/tube in other cities and countries, but I didn't think I'd master Tokyo when I saw the map.
