We went to Fujinomiya with Tomoe and his mom for done yakisoba. The yakisoba did not disappoint. Super delicious. Got back around 5pm with enough time for a little nap before meeting. After meeting we managed to say goodbye to many of the friends and told Tomoe we would like to get a picture with…

Not much to say. We went to Disney Sea with Tomoe and Toshi. Enjoy the pics.

The group consists of artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians and architects who refer to themselves as “ultra-technologists”. TeamLab creates artworks using digital…

We decided to spend the next 2 days in Tokyo and much of today was in the Tokyo skytree. In the morning we hopped on the train and headed in. We saw a lady on the train underlining in a magazine, and it sure looked like a Watchtower. But she was on a page with…

It was super pretty and, to our surprise there were a handful of cherry trees blooming! Enjoy the pictures! After spending 4-5 hours in the park, it was closing, so we left and…

After a long 2 days traveling via bullet train we needed a little rest. We stayed in the area and headed to Yokohama, which is about 30 minutes from Kamoi. We didn’t do much in general, taking a slower day to relax. We walked through the Nissan world headquarters and showroom on the way to…

We left Kyoto on Wednesday and made our way to Osaka. We arrived to our place later in the evening in order to have more time on Thursday. We slept in a little and headed to Dotonbori, a famous area known for its street food. Got some takoyaki and sushi. (Though I doubt you would…

We decided to use the last 2 days of our JRPass to visit Kyoto and Osaka. We didn’t have a lot of time to do much in Kyoto, but we visited the textile district and the imperial palace.

We slept in. Finally. 😅 Did some shopping and ate yummy yummy food. Tomoe took us to dinner to get some ramen. Tomorrow we head to Kyoto. 😊 Oh, and we did some laundry. Fun.
