Went to watch "Hellboy" at Great World City b4 going back to Chinatown to change currency and got our hotel list in Japan.
Funny thing is when we got our Japanese Yen, I was abit confused coz of the many notes in 10000s. As we walked away, I confirmed with Web again how many should we have and he confirmed was 12 pieces (we changed 1.5k+) even after the money changer said so. Who knows after many counts, it's still 16 pieces so realised we have been given an extra 40k Yen, which amounted to SGD512. Decided to go back and return the currency else we would be haunted by our consciences. If its additional of less than SGD100 I think still acceptable but this amount is far too much. Imagine how much the worker have to pay back the boss (or to the business if he's the boss). Since the money changer was also local Chinese, decided better not to be so greedy.
Anyway the "Hellboy" wasn't that fantastic coz got alot of ugly creatures and quite lame storyline. Probably the only wise message sent across was that humans destroy everything for luxury. It was finally a peaceful movie after Web left his job with no disturbance, be it system messages or calls from his stupid boss.
Need to do some research on the hotels in Japan which we would be staying so could plan shopping around the area if time permits. At least we will also be able to spot eating places if we should be hungry at night after check-in (which is usually after dinner).
Oh ya, the sunglasses I bought last week. Kept forgetting to post the picture :P
