Destination 4.3.1 : 羽田 (haneda) ー> 旭川 (asahikawa) ー> 層雲峡 (sou-un-kyou)


right after we left airport, some time were spent to reach
the five star restaurant
it seems more like fast food and don't have any japs feel...
even the foods also seem boring

then went to 男山酒 (otoyama) museum, this place is somehow not that interesting as what i had in kobe...
but the sake was not bad
tried on some of the samples given
and paid 150yen (~RM6) on shot of the best alcohol they got
was trying to buy souvenir but there's a expiry date on the sake...
so i gave up on the souvenir and almost the best sake...
after some calculation, i'll have the sake for my upcoming b'day
(expiry date is 6 months... so i'll be jan 13th expired)
(the fresh water they used to make sake)

took around 1.5 hours to go to 層雲峡
sleep for almost an hour again in the bus
and reached the spouse fountain of Milky Way and Shooting Star waterfall
took some photos there and climbed some stairs to get a better shot
found some interesting sign board
beware of bear... so there must be some bear around in the mountain
and we found a lot of "beware of bear" related stuff in the stores around

continued to 大雪山 (daiseysusan), 黒だけ (kurodake) with a really board cable car
it can fit around 50 people i guess
went up there and nothing nice except the temperature
it's really cool up there, natural scene
but full of mist, so can't take photo nice...

ended up in the ホテル大雪 (daisetsu hotel)
had buffet dinner in the hotel (again)
nothing special with the dinner...
just the really huge crab (but not as nice as what i ate before)
followed with some performances by the native there
was trying to called my host family (in hyogo) but cannot make it
and i went to the "温泉 onsen" (it's actually お風呂 ofuro)

there's the total of 3 "onsen" in the hotel
1. 大雪の湯 (2 tub inside, open air and closed)
2. チニタの湯 (normal indoor bathtub)
3. 天華の湯 (not yet been)

went to tub no.2 1st, not bathtub not that hot actually
so i changed to tub no.1, better as there's sauna there
the open air tub is really 2 temperature at once...
hot for parts sinked in the tub, and cold for exposed

bathtubs do have places for shower
no.2 shower don't have mirror but no.1 have a mirror just nice showing ur body while showering (naked i mean)...
from the mirror i saw (while taking shower)
my body shape was not that bad actually... (i guess)
what i mean is more than normal... (i know i'm ss)
maybe i did go to gym last week (was it that effective for 1 week?)

after shower back to room again and trying to online
no internet here (too rural i guess)
so ended up writing them in TextEdit and will paste it up later...
(watching tv at the same time, i like jap tv program)
i've finished writing and it's going to be 12 (jap time) soon
