You'll have to let me know if you end up in Australia. I'll be moving to Melbourne in...Feburary or April 2008, depending on scholarships and work, etc. And I know what you mean about the packing! I'm really bad for bringing too much stuff and I'm trying to really narrow things down for when I move to Oz.

Will do so :D And if you're ever in my neck of the woods.. wherever that may be ;)
But yeah, packing stuff really sucks :P

Hey Maggie, it's not that the weight allowances have changed, it's just that they're less when you fly through the UK as opposed to flying through the States. I don't know why that is, it just is.
In any case, I hope that you have a lot of fun in the UK! Say hi to Stephen for me and try to get some sightseeing in! Enjoy your last weekend in Japan!

Actually Laura, they have changed; when I came over with Air Canada I was allowed a ridiculous amount, like 2 40kg bags and carry on. I was thinking about flying to the UK and back to Canada with Air Canada (way too expensive:P) and when I was there they had a note on the main page reminding customers that the weight allowance for Japan has changed with Air Canada. You can only have 2 30kg I think it is now. Guess I didn't make that clear enough above.
In any case, I knew that going to the UK has really strict and low weight allowances, it is just more hindered by the fact that I am flying with a discount airline and they have even stricter weight restrictions.

But I think that the UK will be amazingly fun - mostly because of Steven ;) but I think it's a pretty cool place anyway :D I shall of course say hi for you, and we have plants to do a lot of siteseeing while we're there :D

I hope things work out for you dear! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you :D
