of springs and mounts
as seen 2 entries ago. ana seriously screwed up by having the flight delayed by 5 hrs. therefore we reached narita at 10+ 11 ? spent about 1.5 days taking plane after plane lols..from sg to narita. then bus to haneda. then from haneda to sapporo. ended up pretty groggy and a screwed up appetite lols.
for that day there was only one place to sightsee..the sapporo tower area..
oh yes. it was drizzling and drizzling lols..had to use an umbrella to take all the pictures haha. this weather lasted for 2 days i think. so it was pretty cold. but oh wells ! the flowers made the place look brighter though !
didnt spend much time there so we went back to the hotel for an early night after dinner at a chinese restaurant. oh yes the chinese restaurant was in this pretty big shopping mall and there was a comic book shop ! all the anime and game stuff in there! saw the FMA movie dvd but it was all in jap bah.
other than that shopping there was pretty ok i guess...
lols cakes! a ROLL of cake! hahaha
and there are pink taxis in japan LOLS...
oh yes i gotta mention. the cream puffs there are nth like singapore's . u see beard papa's are just one yank of the lever containing the cream but the ones here are totally filled with cream...TOTALLY.
just look at the thing ooze cream lols..
so much for the first day. 2nd day brought us to the otaru area where the place is famed for music boxes and glassware...visited a buncha warehouses before that..
the place was really really cold in the morning..11.3 degrees celsius!
and apparently the drinking water was far far far too cold for drinking too..
but whee! there were cherry blossoms! the last vestige of what remains of spring lol..
we were brought down to the main lane later and all the shops were selling either glassware/accessories or music boxes ..pretty quaint little place..had coffee and cake at this little cafe..
then there was this place selling all the anime music boxes and all. very tempted to get one box but the design was pretty gaudy...music good design bad. noeees... got a pack of cards in the end though lols. spirited away design. lols..
oh yes. the highlight of hokkaido were lavenders and honeydews or were they rock melons ? haha..the melons were UBER ex. how ex?
1000 yen is about 14 sing dollars. do the maths lols. uber uber ex yes.
lunch was steamboat at monstro's!
lol does look like monstro but i dont think its him LOLS ...the dandelions found outside were pretty nifty though..
the lavender farm was the next on the schedule and it was a pretty long ride there. slept all the way there but the sister took pics of snow that refused to melt in summer! lols..
lol it wasnt lavender season boo so we could only see those in the greenhouse and not like rows and rows of em on the hillside or sth but at least we got to see them in any case .
ohnoes abit blurry. bought some stuff here and there and lavender ice cream is good stuff! lols..
yays!
headed back to the resort after that and changed into the yukata hahas..we were highly encouraged to wear em lols..the one we wore for the first night looked slightly weird haha cos it was 2 piece..
lols weird indeed. but the view out of the window was fantastic lols...gushing river + mountain..
so it was just dinner at a buffet after that and went to try the hot spring ! haha..first of 3 ! pretty new experience lols cos contrary to popular belief u dont get to wrap yourself with a towel. u go in with nothing lols. was in there for a while before ian and tong came in..according to them the spring was pretty weird cos it had this weird smell and the water was positively murkier than usual lols.
back in the room ..switching on the tv brought me to a programme featuring...
hard gay! lols and the guy beside him is called HK ...i wonder what K stands for lols..
following morning we went up and up some more to see these 2 waterfalls. fwah! it was bloody cold and my fingers were gonna drop off from holding the videocam. but yes the waterfall was spectacular and in mav's words..pretty postcard worthy lols.
so yes apparently the jacket wasnt actually sufficient to provide the fiyah to warm the body. lols. as if the cold wasnt enough..we went to this place called ice pavillion!
lols. braving temperatures of -21d..the grp of us trudged through the snow and icicle strewn cave.
freezing .
sake factory was up next and it wasnt exactly very interesting ...just a lot of stuff displayed and all. bought a bottle back though hahas..pretty sweet lol.
now the next place was more interesting lols. the chocolate factory! whees. all the chocolate on display ! we saw snow mountains on our way there! whoo!
the factory looked weirdly cottagish but it was a really bigass cottage lols..
supposed to be very very expensive cups. cant rmb why they were doing in a chocolate factory anws lols. but yes. corridors and corridors of very expensive cups.
there was the viewing gallery for the production line !
nt to mention the exquisite cakes they produce.
the cafe was upstairs and the stuff was very rich and nice. had hot chocolate in baileys! hahaha just the correct amt of baileys added and it was thick and creamy whees!
haha acting stupid again ! must have been high on baileys LOLS
another hot spring resort for the night ! yays haha..wore a nicer looking yukata. not suitable for eating meals though lols.
the adults decided that they loved the cool night air alot later and were talking incessantly outside while me and swee tian(correct spelling i hope) were in btwn the lobby and outdoors talking lols.
headed down to the hot spring again. haha..realised it has weight reducing effects LOLS. cos they had a weighing machine there for u to use. went up with ST after that to ian and tong's room to play daidee lols . very welcoming cos for the past few nights it was pretty much boring lol...having some form of card game which everyone is familiar with is pretty much good entertainment lols.
day 5 was spent at the ainu village. natives of the area and there was finally sun ! sun after so many days!
pretty scenic place i suppose. gave the performance a miss cos there were far too many pple squeezing inside. ate ice cream and soaked in the view of the lake lol...
took pictures with the natives too lol..they dress abit like the taiwan natives. from what we heard..all these natives actually originated from the same place just that they drifted away and migrated.
oh yes there were bears too ! lols...the bears looked damn lazy la. and overfed hurhur
lunch after that was seafood by the pacific ocean ! yays!
hur..ordered crab , sea urchin and scallops for sashimi whoos!
ohhh very very fresh. very very sweet. lols. this is good sashimi! lols.
rushed out to the sea after that for some quick phototaking whees!
the sea breeze was highly refreshing lols. wait. or wassit land breeze? lols!
so after that we went to hell! lols..this hell valley place with a volcano that had erupted but the smoke and all were still around tgt with bubbling water.
lol hell was damn stinky. all the sulphur dioxide and ammonia. the rocks were stained yellow and green and so was the water. lols..
the bubbling water ! where the supposed girl who wanted to meet the god of the underworld whom she fell in love with jumped into and died.
headed back to the resort after that and walked around the shops with ian and tong . quite alot of repetitive stuff there lols. was scammed of my scent balls that lost their scent after returning to s'pore lols. then we headed back for more daidee lols.
dinner was a sitting affair and no one stayed there long cos there was no aircon and it was uber stuffy hahas..
me&tong.
i think we played more daidee that night. lols..has become a ritual to relieve boredom hurhur.
the last day there was spent at a beer factory and a market street. nth noteworthy i guess..pretty normal touristy places.
the beer factory!
geishas in the adverts! haha the ancient call to today's scantily clad pi jiu nu lang lols.
lols. noes gimme the beer !
the market street.
the rest of the day were given to us to explore susukino street. the jap equivalent of orchard road. lols. there was an underground shopping mall and a robinsons and streets and streets of little shops! bought more anime stuff there hurhur. and 2 KH2 posters whee!
whee ferris wheel right smack in the shopping district!
dinner that night was the best evah! haha bbq ! we had kobe beef lols. damn good stuff. the beef costs like 8000+++ yen and the way he cooked the beef. it MELTS in your mouth. lols. sounds so exaggerated but true to a certain extent =D it was very very nice! no beef ever tastes the same lols. that night we played bridge and daidee with 2 of the sisters hahas. one of the more entertaining sessions cos the older sister who was from aj was pretty delusional about her winning streaks lol. and the younger sister was a j1 from sa haha so cuckoo we were both wearing the SA shirt on the first day there hahas..
but they're all nice pple la. haha..ian and tong for being v nice and all ( see im not saying anything lousy ok lols ) and the sisters for being very crack-up-ish lols.
kobe beef! whoos!
the last day was spent just travelling and travelling ...nth much haha..took some photos and bought ubah good cheesecake! lols..
me&ian&tong
the two guys flanking ian and tong were the tour guides. haha pretty good guides they were hahas..at least they werent like quiet and faded into the background kinda guides lols.
hurhur hokkaido was a pretty good getaway from all the studying hahaha. not like i study alot LOLS. but still better than mugging ! hahas..got to know more pple thru the trip anws :D . if i had known the remedial lessons were that crappy i would have stayed longer in japan bah. ah wells. late in meeting luc for adidas sale! lols. someday. someday im goin back whees =D
