This is Lmm's crazy plan, that attempts to combine trains, lots of trains, with getting to Japan.
- Day 0, Friday: Dudes gather in and around London.
- Day 1, Saturday: Train to Paris/Brussels/Cologne and a day there. Overnight train to, let's say Warsaw. We could get to Moscow by Monday morning on a direct train, but the trans-siberian doesn't leave until Tuesday evening.
- Day 2, Sunday: Warsaw, explore it, overnight train to Kiev
- Day 3, Monday: Kiev, explore it, overnight train to Moscow
- Day 4, Tuesday: Moscow, explore it, get on the big train in evening
- Day 10, Monday: Beijing, explore it, overnight train to Shanghai
- Day 11, Tuesday: Shanghai, explore it very briefly, ferry at 2pm
- Day 13, Thursday: Arrive in Osaka at 9am, uh, day in osaka
- Day 14, Friday: Kyoto, maybe?
- Day 15, Saturday: One glorious day in Tokyo, or something
- Day 16, Sunday: Morning in Toyko, and fly home.
