Day 2 Cont. - Touchdown in Kansai

Uneventful landing, which is always welcome. Everyone piled off the plane, and just as quickly piled onto a monorail style train to the customs check-in gates. After lining up for no less than an hour with 3 girls that were hot, tired and didn't want to be waiting in line, we eventually snaked our way to the front. The difference in check-in between the Japanese citizens and foreign passport holders was laughable. the Japanese passport holders virtually had to wave as they walked through the ...

Universal Attraction

The day of Steve and my departure from Sapporo was not all travel. We enjoyed a leisurely Comfort Hotel breakfast before checking out just shy of the 10am deadline. Our bags were stored at the hotel so that we could enjoy our final few hours in the city ahead of our afternoon travels. With 3-4 hours to spend it was hard to commit to anything major so we had settled upon getting to know the city a little more, by walking up to JR's Sapporo Station. The walk began with familiar scenery up to Od...

[Not] Very Japan

After a day of western fun at Universal our second Osaka day was allocated to "genuine" Japanese experiences around the city. Breakfast at the hotel was no longer an option and it is sad to admit that after a bit of searching we settled on Maccas in the underground part of Shin-Osaka station. We were down there to get to the subway, the first activity for the day. The particular subway line that runs through Shin-Osaka is actually above-ground, running in the middle of a north-south, cross-ci...

Kyoto trip! Finally! Part 1

So I finally got around to putting up the big-ol Kyoto trip, so here we go!

For those of you who don't know, Kyoto is a pretty big tourist spot for Japan, due to it not being really touched by any carpet-bombing in WW2, and considering it was also to capital of Japan, before Tokyo. Needless to say, between all the things to see, and getting to see my buddy Jack, I was very excited.

Getting down to Kyoto was pretty nice. Somehow ...

... be doing so but I've decided not to other than to state that I'm simply not impressed by this type of upscale product. I just don't see the value. I was more impressed with the Apple store that was in the same district. I guess that I'm simply a provincial 'otaku' (geek)...

For our two days here in Osaka it seems like all that we've done is
eat, walk around, and sleep. In a city like Osaka with such great food,
life doesn't get much better.

... inhottava pieni kala (olisiko sardiini?) meinasi alkaa minulla tökkimään, huh! Mahtava yllätys oli vielä, että ystavämme Emi, jota ei oltu nähty vuosikausiin tärähti yhtäkkiä paikalle ja oli tosi kiva vaihdella kuulumisia pitkästä aikaa! Tässä selvisi nyt myös, että Naoki on menossa naimisiin ensi syksynä ja minut ja Katja tullaan virallisesti kutsumaan juhliin, wau! Kyllä tässä nyt on sellainen tilanne, että melkein pitää alkaa jo lippuja ...

First Impressions

... I did recognize some old friends however, like the black RX-7 FD that pulled up next to the bus at a tollbooth, before roaring off ahead of us. And I saw cars that I can only dream about in America. There is only one Nissan Skyline R34 in all of North America. On the Bus ride alone I saw two. Finally we dove down into the bustle of city, and made our way along congested streets. The Megalopolis of Osaka disappeared from view. Here was ...
