finally… i think i have more or less settled what should be done for now n for the next 2 weeks… i hope so… n i m only beginning to feel the holiday mood!!! woohoo~~~

hmmm i m being envied by many… i know i m lucky… n i also know i will be broke then~~ hahaha

so don’t miss me while i m away… tho i might try to squeeze some time to update my blog… if the shopping isn’t that great or when i run out of money!! hahahahha

some ppl already know whwere i m going, some are still guessing… ahhahaha not that i want to be secretive… ahhahaha i juz hate buying things for A B C D E F G when i m on a holiday… unless necessary or unless really convenient! ahhahah esp bad when u have this sense of responsibility to ‘hunt’ that particular thing for the person…Â also what difference does it make whether u know where i m going or not? i ownself know can already~~~ ;p

meanwhile… take care…

our reserved tram at hakodate

our reserved electric tram at hakodate!

next, the JR train ’super hakucho’ thats crosses the world’s longest underground tunnel! two tickets cos we get seats !! not free seating… :O)

the time schedule so u know ‘roughly’ when n which part is the deepest portion of the tunnel…

the countryside view on the train before we head into the tunnel…

the giant doll shaped lanterns at aomori nebuta festival museum… this festival is held in aug… the main purpose is to drive away the ZZZzzzzz monster so that they people wont feel sleepy hence work hard in the fields for a good harvest!

 

some cute ones for the young at heart…

lake towado

tohoku is one of the least travelled part of japan. it is famous for it’s good quality rice, hence, the padi fields are almost everywhere!

one of the onsen hotels!! nice :O) n that’s the famous aomori apple!

the warm welcome at akita mineland :O) tho the name is spelt wrongly la ;p

the greenery at the samurai houses…

the bullet train aka shinkansen we took from akita to tokyo! one thing amazing i found out… the seats rotatable! to suit the direction of the train in motion…

the delicious yummilicious ramen at yokohama’s ramen museum…
