... ver en las estaciones espejos para que la gente se arregle, peine, haga muecas o simplemente se autodedique una sonrisa, ya que bajo alguno de ellos se puede leer la frase "Smile is the best make up".Ya en "AKIHABARA" nos enfrascamos en labores de investigación electrónica y mangamaniaca recorriendo algunos almacenes entre los que destacaría el "Yodobashi-Akiba", con varias plantas de todo tipo ...
Japan, Japan sultanaviajesSettling in in Matsumoto. Spent about 4 1/2 hours on trains today, slow one from Nikko to Utsunomiya, a shinkansen to Omiya, another shinkansen to Nagano, then another slow train to Matsumoto. Signs of civilization at the Matsumoto station - a Starbucks!
Hoping that I can find the castle tomorrow. The ryokan has bicycles to lend, so I'm going to try and ...

... br>lol...but i have also a lot of experiences in the other way...here examples...
hitchhiking...quite easy, even as japanese never do it...funny thing is they invite you to food or give you money...almost always... i refuse always three times, and then i take what they want to get rid of...funny behavior, theoretically it schould be possible to earn money that way.
Otherwise japan is nice, very clean, not as ultramodern as you might think, also it seems that ...
... walked the rest of the way to the park, through a forest. En route we took the wrong turning and ended up walking up a path marked with a sign warning us of poisonous snakes, whoopsy! When we finally got there it was wonderful. The monkeys are wild but you could get up really close to take pictures. Mark went so close I thought they were going to attack him! They were great to watch, as they frolicked ...
Yudunaka, Chubu, Japan markandchar... and pictures of japanese ladies. We spent the afternoon exploring the town and Mark had a chestnut icecream- the place is also reknowned for its chestnut confectionary. By this point we had spent all of the cash we had on us and were directed to 2 atms nearby, however neither would accept our cards (all visa) even though they had the visa logo on them. These were the only places to get money out in the whole town and we had no other way of getting any, arggh! So we ...
Obuse, Chubu, Japan markandchar... The Japanese students asked us questions, and we asked the Japanese students questions. They were all anonymous, which was nice. The questions ranged from what is your favorite foods to do you think we speak english well, to "would you ever date a Japanese person?" It was great to see how curious our new friends had become and it was amazing to realize how much we don't really know about each others cultures. Although the Japanese are ...
Mt. Fuji, Japan maillette.cAfter Spencer sleeping all day in the TV room nursing a hangover and then me booking a hotel in the completely wrong area of Japan (although very very luxourious resulted in a 7.15am wake up call to get to Nagano) we made our way to the snow monkeys!
After getting our bus to literally the middle of nowhere, we then walked for 40 minutes along a beautiful snowy trail to where the monkey sanctuary is hidden in the snow. The path is covere din ...
... city officials. As we walked in, dozens of people lined our path, clapping and holding a welcome banner. Talk about being hospitable! After our meeting with the officials, we were interviewed by the local TV station. We felt like celebrities! After all that excitement, our new friend, Mr. Inoue was driving us to our hotel and asked if we had dinner plans. Of course we didn't, so he took us to a sushi place. It was a dining experience unlike any ...
Ueda, Japan melanie.widmerWe took the Shinkansen to Nagano using our rail pass and after arriving found out which bus to catch out to M-Wave, the ice skating rink used in the winter Olympics. We had never been ice skating so were willing to give it a try.
Took an old wooden floored bus out to M-Wave and walked past a sign in Japanese then paid for our ticket to the ...
