The moving... part 2

Once I arrived a Narita, somewhat tired and extraordinarily funky (double meaning NOT intended), I immediately bought a bus ticket going directly to my hotel, however I purposely bought one that left in an hour instead of the one left almost immediately, so I would have some time to eat and, more importantly, check out the temporary cell phone counters.

Previously I had researched about the most efficient short term cellphone rental place, and one of the biggest ones, Softbank, was having a sale where a phone was only 250 yen a day (that's about 2 dollars a day). Anyway, I found the cellphone place in the middle of a centrally located airport mall, and was helped by a very nice lady who spoke perfect english (hence the reason I wanted to do this at the airport, as such service would be more tentative anywhere else), and got signed in about 10 minutes.

FYI, my phone number is 080-3418-2926, if you want to call me :). Country code for Japan is +83

Anyway, once that was through, I just had to wait for the bus. I had only been awake for about, hmm, considering I didn't get much if any sleep the night before I flew out, I'd been awake for about 24 hours at this point:
