Prologue

This blog is a journal of my trip to Japan during my current summer vacation. My family of three and I embarked on this 10D/8N free & easy Japan travel from 11th May to 21st May 2006. We covered some of the interesting places in the east and west of Hokkaido island and explored the metropolitan Tokyo city in the east of Honshu island. During the entire trip, we have been blessed with fair weather, generous assistance from the local Japanese, and smooth transportation transits. It has been tremendous fun immersing ourselves in the Japanese culture and lifestyles - 10 days was definitely not enough to fully enjoy Japan. No matter how I hard I try to illustrate the beautiful landscapes and fascinating things I've seen in Japan, it would still do no justice to the actual magnificence. I will try to give an account as real as possible, and I hope it will be worth your reading :P

Japan is a beautiful land.... so, if you have the chance, experience it!!
