Ghibli Museum!!

Any anime fan or fan of the animation process has to go to this at least once. Its in Tokyo, in Mitaka on the Chuo Line. It only costs about $10 to go, but you have to buy your tickets ahead of time because they are issued for certain dates and times. You can buy them in Japan from any Lawson's store, or you can buy them from the Japan Travel Bureau (for more than 10..) where they always have extras vs. maybe them already being sold out in Japan. I've been there twice and I loved it. :D

Does everyone learn this the hard way?

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Gee...I wonder who told Kittens how to get there...*looks innocent*

But for real, if you check in the Album, there is a photo of myself, Kittens and Weyrlady on the train headed toward the aforementioned store. :wink:

You are curious about who told Kittens how to get there.
