Tomorrow at 8pm, I will be leaving my home and beginning a 40 hour trek back to Australia for the Christmas and New Year's holidays. 40 hours is a hell of a long time, so I've gotten myself an idea to keep myself entertained, but I need YOUR help!
I'm going on a scavenger hunt.
I need you to give me a list of things to find. I'll take photographs, and post them back to this site when I have internet connection. So! List of things you can find while travelling - such as "photograph of someone sleeping at the airport."

If you are curious - this is my route
8pm 21st December: Train from tiny town JP to hotel outside Kansai International Airport. Sleep for a few hours (maybe) and then kill time in the international departures lounge until flight.
9:30am 22nd December: Fly to Hong Kong. Kill a few hours here.
7pm 22nd December: Fly to Sydney
8:15am 23rd December: Get on bus, ride to Canberra.
12:30pm 23rd December(maybe): Home sweet home!

Some Engrish. Everyone loves some Engrish.
Oh whoa! This sounds like an awesome idea!
Here are some suggestions:
Edit: I thought this was a fun idea that lets people get involved in something that's going on rather internationally, so I put a link to this on twitter and facebook as well. Hope that helps keep you sane as you travel!
Here are some suggestions:
- Photograph of questionable looking meat product
- Someone's dog
- Children playing with/climbing on odd objects to try and keep themselves entertained while they wait and wait and wait
- Someone in a hat possibly too big to be polite in a crowded space

Japan has a million flavours of Kit Kats. These two are different green tea flavours. I can do proper translating when I get home if you'd like.
Anyway, another lot.
