Mets Hachinohe Hotel

So these are the photos from me and Diana's going away parties over the last 2 days in Akita before we went to Tokyo and then went home. I posted them to facebook but I guess I never put them on here. It was a great party where we had yummy Korean food and lots of laughs and then lots of crying. Everyone cried even the boys, they tried to hide it but we could still tell.

... Beach which is right outside of our resort and also daily visits to the Chula-U hotsprings spa. It is ajacent to our resort so we can go there daily for free. I'll post pics as soon as I can find my camera usb cord! I hope I didn't forget it cause I can't find it!! LOL!

... in a festival with a prince, riding on an elephant in Thailand and a tiger somewhere in the northern part of Japan. I remember taking camping trips with other kids all around the country and taking a Japanese dancing class with my mother to be in festivals. Years later I took a month long trip over to Japan with a group of Girl Scouts. I was able to experience everything I had again and it ...

Arriving in Misawa was a breeze, we got here with no problems thanks to the incredible shinkansen bullet train. The train system here is quite impeccable, the trains arrive within 30 seconds of their arrival time and ride itself is smooth and soundless. After all, you are gliding in a machine that is far more advanced than any country in the world. We got up early today, but i was really tired. My uncle yelled in the room to wake me up and said "We have ...

09/27/2007 - Days #4-7 Well sorry I have not updated in a few days, we have been hanging around on Base in Misawa. Not too much going on just little things around base. We visited two local Karaoke bars; I wish I took pictures... I cannot even describe it... ha ha We also went to a local mall, and went to the 100 yen store... that was fun... it's just like a ...

... we made it to Hach =) We were told by Angel's brother to meet him by the "travel agency with an English sign"... as it turns out, that booth is no longer there, but luckily he was right there to meet us as we got out of the train. We then had our first encounter of Russell's Nihongo (spelling?) when he tells our cab driver how to get to his place. The three of us were amazed. Hachinohe feels just a like any other suburb ...

... local fruit stand and had our way with their supplies of fruit. I opted for one red, and one green of the GIANT variety. Amy went with a Red of the medium variety, and the owner thought she was darling and gave her a rotted Pear?!?! Seriously, gave her a pear that was a little over-ripe. She "shared" with the rest of us... even half-dead their fruit is still pretty good. After the show we went to the hopping area of town ...

So we left the family (I MISS SATO!!) and spent 9 1/2 hrs on a ferry. Not like ours tho you get separated into large rooms (with other ppl) you take off your shoes and have a little black pillow to sleep on the floor. But guess what our room was nice and empty coz whenever the Japanese looked in they saw us and went elsewhere!!!!

Misawa Air Base, Japan, is located approximately 400 miles northeast of Tokyo. We get a lot of snow here! Check out the weather link!
