Reason 327 why its better in Japan….

Because at least when you get stuck trying to get back Europe-they don’t abandon you:

For days now, volcanic ash from an eruption in Iceland has halted air travel to and from most of Europe, stranding hundreds of tourists in Japan. For those who do not want to spend any money, sitting inside the airport 24/7 until their flights can take off again seems to have been the only option. The airport has been providing them with free food, water, sleeping bags, and free coupons to use the airport’s shower rooms.  

After seeing their plight on the news, the city of Narita has started offering free tours to the stranded tourists. Participants are bused to a Japanese cultural center where they get to try on kimonos and learn about Japanese paper, calligraphy, and tea ceremony. Here are is a TV news report about the tours:
