Smile Hotel Matsumoto

... 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".</li></ul>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 ...

Settling 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!<br><br>Hoping that I can find the castle tomorrow. The ryokan has bicycles to lend, so I'm going to try and ...

... angekommen, ein ziemlich v**lassenes Schloss - mit Horrorfilmpotential das ganze!!! Wied** niemand da - hauptsache ein klo gabs - klasse jetzt brauchte ich es auch nicht mehr (wobei da wär ich eh nicht reingegangen - nach d** letzten Bahnhofstoilette in d** Einöde - TIPP dafür - NIEMALS DEN BLICK NACH OBEN RICHTEN!!! - the spid**man is having me for dinn** tonight) Die Aussicht war natürlich echt nicht von schlechten Elt**n - blöd**weise ist d** akku ...

... br>lol...but i have also a lot of experiences in the other way...here examples...<br><br>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.<br><br>Otherwise japan is nice, very clean, not as ultramodern as you might think, also it seems that ...

... in the onsen and up the verges in their group, and there were lots of cute little babies. We stayed for a while taking photos, but soon got drenched by the rain so took shelter in an onsen lodge just across a bridge on the other side of the valley. There we had lunch- by then we hadnt eaten all day as we had the money fiasco to deal with in the morning, and had rushed to get our train and bus- so we ...

... they are willing to share information, it just takes time. The ride back was filled with American and Japanese chatter, as we had all become good friends at this point. Bonding over questions and beer is never a bad thing :) We will be meeting up with a bunch of the students this thursday and most of them are coming to Boston this summer, which is really nice. We will be able to show them our home, as they have graciously shown us theirs.

... about each others culture. There were so many questions, confusion, and I think in the end, a bit of enlightenment. I still don't understand the culture completely and feel as if I never will. I don't think an outsider is privileged to such information. Regardless, I think our talk formed a strong bond and I hope we have more like it in the future.

... and having nowhere to go, decided to recirulate over Kamikochi and dump everything on us. And it was miserable. Not the temp really, because I had a poncho that was a wind barrier and made a bit of a warmth chimney, but the driving snow (which was really tiny hail) on your face and eyes was painful. Since I spent a bit to get there and the weather reports were for some lightening of rain in Matsumoto and maybe some sunshine, I decided to do the 4 hour hike anyway ...

... hill-side until I came to a white and red marker sticking out of the trail. I decided not to go any further as I had hiked for about an hour at this point and the trail beyond looked untouched. I snapped some pictures of the surroundings and got a pretty great view of the city below. The alps in the distance were pretty amazing as well, but somewhat obscured because of the haziness of the day. I decided to make my way down the switch-backs and head ...
