In London

Now， London is evening， March 15th.This Great(?) journy will end on 16th March， tommorrow.
(Arrive at Kansai Int’l Airport on 18th.)

After Italy， I visited Zurich， Munchen， Berlin， Frankfurt， Amsterdam， Brusseles， Paris， and London.

There are a lot of remembers in each city.
In Rome， I had BOTTAKURI. And so on.
Munchen was a very good city， I think.
Good food， good beer.

Before I arrive at Paris， I drunk all day...
In Paris， I didnot have a lot of money， I didnot drink.

Paris’ Holliday...

Here in London， Here is not so bad city to live.
I can live here if I had some money，
Yes， here is a bit high price.
For example， hamburger set(Large size) cost about 4 pound.
(1 pound is about 200JPY， isn’t it?)

One of the reason is VAT(Value Added TAX) is very high.
I think that the rate is about 15％ per every service.
(Of course it is sure that the price is high compared with Japanese counterpart)

I cannot discuss tax system(because of I don’t have any knowledge about tax system not only UK but also Japan).
And surely，now I cannot compare UK tax system with Japanese one.

Anyway， tax rate in UK is higher than that of Japan.
This is not only UK， but also other EU country.
This is true， I think.

With this journy， I do appriciate that I am Japanese and I live in Japan.
Japan is good country. Confortable to live.

(For living，)"Japan as No1"

.............misc.......................
In London， I have a BIG trouble.

NO MONEY...

Now， I have about 180 pound (about 38，000JPY)

I have my VISA card but I cannot use it..
That was not so big problem.
Because I have international cashcard.

And today， I tried to use this cashcard with ATM.
Then， the ATM displayed "NOW YOUR CARD IS NOT IN SERVICE"

oh fuck...

I lost all of the way for gathering fund.
Thus， I cannot buy anything for our friend. There is no exception....
