このイカレタ姉ちゃん達、駅に着いたらホームの反対側のドアから出ようとして閉まっているドアにぶつかりそうになり、その後も私より先に行こうとあちこちで他人の邪魔になるのを無視して歩く
This stupid crazy girls, when arrived the station, they are likely to hit
the closed door trying to get out on the other side of the home,
and then ignore the obstacles of others here and there to try ahead walk
Naughty girls are the same destination as me, but they was trying to always
go in front of others because they was always forced to go to the ticket

A slightly dark beer with a taste good alcohol 5.2% bought 500 ml at a
nearby supermarket, no taxes or chips required
Today I enter SEAFRESH on the left take-out door. Open from noon to 10:30 pm I found a supermarket diagonally opposite here, but it was closed in the evening on Sunday. The other two places were open a little later. Both are close range.
今日はこの中から持ち帰り、色んな種類があって悩む

food I confuse.
I ordered sausages and fish cakes totaling 4.5 pounds \ 765-in the same
store yesterday, but taking door on the take-out side today, and it looked
like croquettes,
but mixed with white fish and mashed potatoes and it fried,
it was delicious. also add beer and salad total of \ 1215.
It was almost the same content volume as usual day,
but it was more successful at the 1/4 price of other day dinner. My trip
has to be this !
The outside become an evening, and it is raining even with a few minutes of distance.
Take-out dinner is correct today
明日朝の出発に荷物を整理してカバンに詰め込む、今回の旅は荷物は大き目のボストンバッグひとつだけ。
この宿は何フロアーかに分かれて共同トイレシャワーの部屋があるが欧米人の滞在者はシャワーの出入りは若い女性でもバスタオルをまとっただけで階段を昇り降り。まるで自宅にいる様な感覚である。ここは最上階5階なので下着でも別の階の人が通ることはない。Wifiは階段まで行けば5階でも接続できた。
I will arrange pack up my bag for departure tomorrow morning,
this trip is only one little large bag.
This hotel is divided shared toilet and shower each several floors,
Westerners stay in and out of the shower young women who have only bath
towels and climb the stairs. It's like feeling at home.

not come up with underwear.
Wifi could be connected on the 5th floor if going stairs
2015/4/17(金Fri) 帰る日 The day going home
今日はゆっくり食事し、10時にチェックアウトして空港に向かうだけだ、朝の飲み物はコーヒーか紅茶かを尋ねてくれるしミルクティ、ミルクコーヒー用か左のステンレスカップに牛乳を出してくれる私はシリアルを食べるので牛乳お替りをお願いした。毎日顔を会わせてるスタッフにイギリスの他の地方の事を尋ねたら知らないと、出身を尋ねたら全員がポーランドやその周りに国の東欧出身だった。
I eat slowly today, I just check out at 10 o'clock and head to the airport,
Staff ask me if the morning drink is coffee or tea, milk tea, milk for
milk coffee.
they served milk in the left stainless steel cup I will have cereal.When
I asked the staff I see every day about other parts of the UK they said
they didn't know, and when I asked them where they were from they said
everybody were from Poland and the surrounding Eastern European countries.
ロンドンの地下鉄は駅に着く度に「ホームと電車の間に気をつけてMind gap between
train and platform」とアナウンスしているがホームが低い場合と高い場合とある、良く見るとホーム自体が場所によって10センチ以上上下しているし斜めになったホームもある、ここは20ｃｍ以上の段差で高い。更にホームが急なカーブの途中にある場合はホームと電車の間隔も20ｃｍ以上あったりする、でかい大人でも間に落ちるに充分な間隔寸法だ。
Every time train get to the station, London's subway announces “Mid gap
between train and platform” many times plat home is low or high,
There are homes that are up or 10 cm or more and sometimes with angle from horizon,
this is a height of 20 cm or more. Furthermore station, if the home is
in the middle of a sharp curve the railroad the distance between the home
and the train is 20 cm or more,
it is enough space to drop in between even adults.
To the Heathrow Airport, change train once from Victoria Station by subway arrived
at Terminal 4 within 1 hour.
This is the receipt that I exchanged when I came to Heathrow, and if I
had this, I can exchange back the amount that I exchanged, I believed
that I did not think it would be a big loss, I wrote last
航空会社でチェックインし搭乗券を受け取ったら出国検査と手荷物検査だが検査入り口手前でこの女性は荷物の中にある水類半練類を出してこれに入れてとジップロック袋を無料でくれる、袋を事前に用意しろと突然一方的に言い出す関西空港とは大違いだ。
Checked in at the airline and receive a boarding pass,
you will have security inspection of a baggage, but before the inspection
entrance this woman will take out the liquid or jell to put in the zip
lock bag provide will be free.
It's a big difference from Kansai Airport, where they ask to put in a bag
without advance announce saying suddenly.
液体や練物はこのようにせよと実物の表示もしてあるので判る、袋を無料でくれるのが良心的。
Liquids and pastes are also displayed in this way,
so it is understandable that it is conscientious to give me bags free of
charge.
パスポートに出国のスタンプは押さない、搭乗券のバーコードで自動改札を通りＸ線荷物検査だけで出国パスポート審査はない。ターミナル4だけでも関西空港に近い大きさ、ヒースローはターミナル5まである馬鹿でかい空港だ
No stamp of departure passenger on the passport,
the bar code of the boarding pass will read through the automatic ticket
gate, X-ray baggage inspection only
so no passport check in Heathrow for out going.,
this is a huge airport this is terminal 4, they have 5 Terminal building.
even only terminal 4 is big like Kansai Airport.
私は搭乗口５ａで待つ、無料のWifiがあった、webページにアクセスして規約に同意すれば使えるが2時間までは無料それ以上は有料、それでも出会い系サイトは接続できない設定になっていた。
wait at the boarding gate 5a, there was a free Wifi,
you can use it if you access the web page and agree to the terms able to use
it for 2 hours but it will be possible to pay if more than that,
but the dating site is not connect .
カタール航空の機体があっちにもある、ドーハから毎日5便飛ばしてるのを実感。
I saw many of Qatar airways because they have five flight from Doha everyday.
ロンドンヒースロー空港を午後1時42分に離陸、ドーハまで6時間20分とアナウンス。QR12便はA340-600の大きい機体。
Took off London Heathrow at 1:42 pm, announced 6 hours 20 minutes to Doha. QR12 is A340-600 big aircraft.
After eating, I entered the toilet on the right end of aircraft,
Then after soon someone knocks, ore not knock just hit by someone who passed
through in front of toilet door, not a knock but like knock,
there is also a occupied display on the door,
I get jacket and took off my waist bag and pull down my pants for a while
reply again by knocking at the normal strength on the door of the toilet
but the toilet door is far
I need stood up from the toilet seat with the panty down It is a few steps
away to get to. I saw the seat belt sign in the bathroom,
but I did not need return to the seat if not turn on, I was worried that
someone from outside was calling me but no one didn't say anything.
Then someone unlocked the door lock and I try opened the door a little
while I was standing from toilet seat and there was a female cabin attendant
in front of me.
Then, the door lock was released by someone outside, and I opened the door
a little while my underwear was down,
there was a female cabin attendant in front of toilet.
I stood and thought for a moment, but my behavior become sexual harassment
if get out without panty,
it struck my behavior was blamed even if the attendant was bad. So once
I closed the door and finished the toilet early and got out of
the toilet, I strongly complained many of the flight attendants in Galley,
"toilet is not private room is there no privacy in Qatar Airways'
toilet?"
A black Asian Indian with a slightly lower colored came out and apologized
me "I m Sorry". he said only that,
I said what is the reason make unlock they said may be a problem in the
toilet is the reason,
"I have a call button inside and there is no reason to call from outside
why unlocks?"he said I'm sorry again and say some of the customers
do not know the call button.
Excuse me, because this little girl said that won't come out for a long
time, you will unlocks with no reply only 2 knocks. There is no second
knock that is clearly evident in my memory.
A girl like a 40-year-old Turkish standing next to a girl like first grade
of elementary school, and repeated "I'm Sorry" in the same way.
Small children can not see occupied signs which locate adult eye height,
and families should know how long little girl was waiting, even if they
go alone,
without checking it is Insane of the flight attendant who unlocked it.
he can not reply so I say to the Indians, "Because the girl said and
you waited me how many minutes not to come out," I'm sorry only. I
was been in the toilet for more than 5 minutes, but it is the first time
force open for less than 10 minutes and get out of the bathroom. I asked
the Indians to write their names, to finish my complaint.
hanura Dias Abcysingha is his name,
an Asian-colored (Chinese?) woman came out from the back who looked I complained,
so I said, "If you also write your name,"
she get angry and said "Name "Please write your seat number,"
told me repeatedly, saying, she increase anger attitude It's meaningless
to win because I'm right here,
I'm not in a position to do my best. So I try to finish back, "I understand,
it's good," but the Chinese still said they could write.
The Indians thought he was bad, so he kept me a little cautious after that,
but the stupid crew who came out from behind and were selling the kite
to the customers (me) is obviously the problem. This foolish crew member
was the atmosphere that Chinese people often seen at the airport were talking
vigorously.
There were about 10 other flight attendants, but they just showed interest
when I've said, and I'm not aware that it's not a disorderly situation.
problem is the girl just have to hang over and calm me down Only the Chinese
who came are the most problematic attendant.
I think that it is effective if the Indian male alone is only able to write
the name and I think that is an enough to effect The fool female attendant
is not in charge at around my seat.
この途中にあるギャレーの更に奥の後部の最後部のトイレでの話だ
It is a story in the rest room at the rear of the rear of the galley in
the middle of this way
イラクの上空はイスラム国とかいう寄せ集め不特定外国人の集まりがドンパチやって危ないが今のイランは大丈夫。
去年スペインに行ったときはシリアは内戦でイラクは問題なかったのでシリアを避けてイラク上空を飛んでいたのを思い出す。
The Iraqi sky is dangerous because a gathering of unidentified foreigners such as
they called an Islamic country is dangerous, but Iran is safe now. When
I went to Spain last year, I remember that Syria had problem but not in
Iraq during the civil war, so flight avoided Syria and flew over Iraq.

関西空港には17時に着陸無事に帰りました
Able to choose Japanese meals before arrive at Kansai Airport, but Japanese dishes and Western dishes are difference only the black dishes below,
Japanese dishes will only be fish and rice.
Landed at Kansai Airport at 17 o'clock and returned safely
London's museums and galleries were almost free, paid to London Tower Bridge and the battleship Belfast, transport Emirates Airline Gondola was paid, but it was cheap at £ 3.80 when paid with an Oyster card. Others seem to be free of National Gallery, Air Force Museum and British Museum, and there are many free facility
Public transportation such as trains, subways and buses have common pass
other than ordinary one-off and round-trip tickets. In the description
of the travel book,
the zone was decided by the distance from the center, and it was written
that the fare for the daily ticket was different for each of zones 1 to
6.
I try to buy a cheap 5 pound of zone 1 in the center only, there is only a 12 pound ticket to zone 6 at the ticket machine or the window, I used it for the first few days
but IC card oyster from the middle of trip.I bought by credit card and
paid £ 30 for four days, and Emirates gondola also paid for it, and on
the fourth day system returned to the £ 8 for a £ 1507 card when I refunded
it at the airport when I back.
In London, the Oyster card is best, and it seems that the maximum debit amount of the day is fixed and it can not be charged more even if it is used further.
I could see the usage history on the station machine. It is still cheap to move with the Oyster card between the airport and the city.
Next visit when you arrive at the airport, go to the subway and get an
Oyster card first.
The map of London's subway is written top on the north (may not only subway),
and the circle line of the route's ring line guides clockwise and counterclockwise,
and the route running up and down NorthBound north / SouthBound south
There is guidance to EastBound East / WestBound West to the east-west route. Other than that, the last station on the route is indicated as a guide of line,
and it is not difficult to change trains if you can understand simple English.
If it goes out to the suburbs which is not all underground even if it says
subway,
it runs on the ground. As long as using the oyster card, payment is the same as in Japan where the ticket gate can be opened by touch the device at the exit/entrance machine.
When I arrive cash exchange in \65,000 or more is fee-free at the Heathrow
airport exchange window said , so I put \70000-£33.34 a rate of £/\208-
and If you keep the receipt of the re-exchange on the way back they told.so
I exchange it again to the Japanese yen, and it would return only \25,000-
for I put it £205.08, the rate of £ / \ 122-, the rate in the TV was
£/\177- I surprised there is a big gap, and it's almost a thief that returns
about half, it's banking.
The price in this page Japanese yen and at the same time in pound, but
it was calculated with the exchange rate of £177. , should calculate the
amount paid in cash as the exchange rate pound \ 208 yen,
the difference with the exchange rate is too large. I used a lot of credit
cards, but the exchange rate for the card use price is \ 179-180 yen, this
price is acceptable.
Credit payments are absolutely worthless because I pay with a credit card
even in the supermarket's 100 yen . Cash payment loses 30 yen every 200
yen compared to credit payment.
After all, cash is absolutely necessary only when it is deliver chips in
cash, there is almost no such situation.
It is because there is no problem amount by adding a tip to say the price paying the restaurant by credit card.
Since they entered the amount of the statement if I did not say anything,
then I gave the chip a few pounds in my pocket and replied "thank
you"
By the way, if you ask the local bank in Japan, it will be exchange rate
to £ / \ 177 if exchange from yen to pound,
it will be \ 177 + 12 = \189 to change to pound, \ 177 if exchange from
pound to \ Since -12 =165-, it can be understood how the money changer
in England is losing money.
The Japanese bank says that it will not take any other fee, so in the UK
it will be exchange amount is less than \ 65,000 in addition to the pound
/ \ 208, it will take a another additional fee
During the flight, Qatar Airlines was able to use WIFI in-flight, but it
was explained that if it created an account and set a password,
it could also be used for other flights. The fare is 11.95us $ per hour,
FULL 21.95us $, Full is the meaning to say while taking the flight to it,
yet it was written in the FAQ that it can be used even if the flight is
changed. So when I asked the crew whether they said actually use it
anywhere in flight, Osaka flights (11 hours) but there were some areas
where could not connect to the Internet for about six hours over China,
customers complained about that
Accommodation in the town in London may be cheaper if it is a hostel such
as a common room other than this hotel but a toilet shower was common but
room is private here. How many times I talked real British people did you
eventually talk to during my stay?
All the people working in the hotel were foreigners, Spanish Indians, Estonian, Poland and Lithuanian etc.
There were no British native people I spoke men and women in the hotel
include guest. they said that my country has no work like London,
British will not do a simple job as cheap as a hotel receptionist?
Travel in England seems to be better off London and head to north. Only
about 100km of Stonehenge came out suburbs this time,
but the country seems to be better than the London area. If you buy in
advance, there are discounted rail passes, and bus trips will be cheaper.
It is a good strategy to go to the countryside is not expensive as London.
.
Compared to other part of the world where I've ever been to, I heard English
in the streets of London similar to English which I learned from junior
high school in Japan,
so I can get words very easily even if I forget the meaning of words.
Even in Japan,
I often do not understand young Japanese people are currently talking in Japanese, so I do not think that I can not understand English and I think that the meaning can not be understood due to the generation gap language doesn't matter..
The catastrophe mistake of this trip was to exchange cash at the Heathrow
airport and re-exchange, and at least re-exchange should have been after
back to Japan.
Next time, let's travel with just a credit card without holding any pound
cash. You only need cash if you really need to tip small change, but this
time there was no such scene at all, you do not have to have cash in London.
Just in case, credit card reserves are much more useful than having cash.
Sometimes the cards and machines don't match well.
Let's go England again. I can enjoy more next visit !
