Japan 2007 collage

Halloo, Arn and I are back from a brief vacation in Japan1 with my family. This time we took a Shinkansen2 to the Kansai area so we were able to cover more ground compared to past visits.3
Spring had just sprung when we arrived over a week ago and we were lucky to have witnessed the once-a-year blooming of the beautiful Sakura during our stay. You can view some photos at the following albums: Kyoto / Kobe / Ueno Park / Ohanami in Ibaraki / Tokyo

Please pardon the sporadic blog updates, but remember you can always IM me on Twitter and iLike. 🙂

  1. Obviously we love the place, that’s why we keep going back. Add to that the fact that my Papa always invites us over and generously sponsors our trip. 🙂[ back]
  2. aka Bullet Train. On a regular train, the ride from Tokyo to Kyoto will take 8 hours. Via shinkansen, it only took us 2 hours, tops![ back]
  3. Kyoto is actually special to me because we stayed for a month in Kyoto when I was 7 (photo here). [ back]
