阿Ger's Bigfish Life

Senshinkan Matsuya is 洗心馆 松屋.

ooohh hahaha... the lady owner of this ryokan (japanese inn) in shibu onsen really did post a blog entry about me!

you know, this girl looks awfully familiar...

the place (shibu onsen) is a small town spa resort. very cosy. very peaceful. the day starts as early as 6am, and by 10pm everyone just relax and go for baths! you see people wearing the yukata. you hear people walking in geta.

i missed the chance to see the full moon in japan. it should be very pretty.

but at least i've completed the nine public bath...

the truth? my nipples hurt. too much hot spring water.

tasted their traditional japanese cuisine...

salmon snout... you want try???

and finally... made acquaintance with the snow monkeys~
err... i tried to...

something tells me he's plainly not interested in me...

this was taken on check out day! right before i said goodbye~

the nice hostess and her kawaii daughter

her daughter is way much cuter in real life. people are just camera shy... (^-^ ||)

in life, you face choices all the time. should i have that or should i have this. then there are bigger ones. should i choose to follow this path? or should i try something else?

what should i do?

i amaze myself sometimes...

after so many lack of sleep days i have not progressed much!!!

will you look at my accommodation booking percentage??? 3 freaking % nia! arrgghh!!

hahaha!! ah well... anyway the route and key processes was changed so many times! i kept thinking and researching and thinking... and researching... you get the picture...

finally it is more or less settled. the front part only... need to settle some accommodation issues over at nagano...

their websites are all in japanese and i do not understand a single character (except those that is similar to chinese)!! i had to practically... japanese text... copy... babelfish... paste... enter... oooohh... so that means... translate every text on the website.

i am now conversing with one of the shibu onsen ryokan owner in english through email! have to keep things short and simple.

let me see... i am left with 6 days???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am pleased to share with everyone that i will be going on a 10-day trip to japan!! i am going solo, free & easy and absolutely under planned!! kekekeeke~ the only thing that is concrete, is that the air tickets have been booked already! i am flying jal! (wonder if i get to see sheron) slightly pricey due to solo... but my dad said at least it is jal... and i figured... money earned is meant to be spent... so... yah.

in the meantime, i shall brush up whatever ji-teh-ji-teh(一块一块) japanese that i have learnt from watching anime.
