konnichiwa!: some final pics from my travels..

hey everyone.. this will be my last entry with my pics from travelling japan.. then i'll finally post up my APU pics!! woohoo!! haha pardon me.. its already one plus here.. way past my bedtime and i just had nice green tea, azuki bean bread.. supper.......think its a country thing. the bread being nice that is. haha.
ok one new thing im gonna try here is uploading my pics onto a web album so it's much more efficient and i can post more pics! hee. will put down the addresses :)

toba.. japanese ryokan

japanese ryokan (japanese inn) in Toba.. its a little city surrounded by the sea.. famous for seafood and mikimoto pearls! Most japanese hotels gave us the yukata (thin kimono) to put one.. mainly to go to their onsens.. hee. but onsens are really good ways to relax once u get past the embarassing bit of being naked in front of complete strangers.. (all of the same sex of course..) the warm water is extremely calming..

check out the sashimi!! an entire fish PLUS lobster (small one la) PLUS oysters and sea snails (that was a lil gross..) but the fish and lobster were delicious! from a non-sashimi eater, i believe that counts for pretty much. haha.

our entire meal ! (the table was literally filled with food.. sashimi, oysters, fish, soup, rice......etc etc) pity we werent seafood lovers..

breakfast was equally sumptious.. heh. nice eggs, crab in soup.. tofu in miso soup, grilled fish,salad, sausages..........think u got the point. heh

back in osaka from toba (in transit to fukuoka)

katsu don!! sinful stuff. think this is prob why my choloesterol level went up!! i got a cautionary during my apu health check! high cholesterol!! got to cut back on the agemono (fried food) man!

kyoto station again! astro boys everywhere!

this was our "golden room" in a tokyo budget inn.. the walls were literally covered with golden wallpaper.. pretty tiny room.. but cosy i guess.. 4 tiny beds side by side..

pasar malam: japan style!

they had food stalls and stalls selling little trinklets and clothes, accessories..

pretty similar to pasar malam..only more expensive.. and more delicious food.. he

in front of kyoto station! this was after arriving from osaka.. the station building's architecture was pretty awesome.. will have more pics on the web album!
