Jul 27th, 2006, 12:09pm
 
Hello. here is report of my trip in japan ^^
 
we left from finland 6th day of june 17.45  helsinki.
we came to kansai international 7th day of june 08.00
first of all me and my friend was really confused.
But everything was rolling good.
Then we went to JR office to exchange our JR passes.
After that we went to shin-osaka to change train SHINKASHEN!  
we took shinkanshen and went to kagoshima.
when we came to kagoshima group of happy school girls greet us happy faces.
and they wanted we took some pics of them lol
we were asking about kagoshima. but we found out they didnt speak english that much.
too bad. but not many minutes after that ... some english teacher came to us. and showed nice hotel in kagoshima.
it was cheap and cosy room.
 
Next day 8 th we went to Ibusuki.
Ibusuki was really hot and warm. Tropic indeed. but a bit boring place..
 
9th day we took shinkashen to Nagasaki.
trip took so long so we went to sleep almost right away  
10th day we met my friend in Nagasaki.
it was fun day..  
flower park.. peace park. Smiley
at evening we went to hiroshima.
it was around 23.00 when we was there.
and we were wondering if there is cheap hotel somewhere.
we were looking for hotel like 2 hours. then we found it!

not much mention about sendai.  
a bit boring for me.
good food and wild ppl there.
13th day  
Sapporo!!
sapporo was nice city. really good ramen there lol
But hard to get out from there cause not many trains going there.
14th day we went to just aomori cause not many trains go to tokyo from sapporo.
 
15th-19th days we stayed at my friend place in tokyo
 
he showed us Roppongi,Shinjuku,Shibyja.....
everything!
19th day sunday we met two of my friends in Harajuku.
they took us to  Yakitori.
yum yum it was good lunch.
19th day and 20th day night we spent in Tokyo train station.
cause we missed the last train to Kyoto.
20th day morning we went to Kyoto with first train.
we had to sleep in the Kyoto station waiting room cause we were super tired.
we saw many nice things in kyoto but it was hot hot day.
20th-26th days we spent in Osaka.
it was quite hard city to move place to place.
but anyways we learned.

25th day we went to nara with couple of friends.
It was awesome day.
we went to nara to see big buddha

Thank you for your travel report.  I understand the feeling about Hokkaido very well. It is such a wonderful place. It has very different atmosphere from other places.
 
Also, I think okonomiyaki is very good, and better than pizza. It is wonderful to enjoy okonomiyaki with nice beer (yebisu!).
 
Would you show us your homepage? I'd like to add it to my link section as well.

Hey!
 
So you came to Hokkaido and didn't visit, eh? Well, I can't blame you. We live in a very inaka place, with not much to do this time of year except watch the soba grow. Still, the Ainu are here, the mountains are here, and lately there are hotaru. It's also mercifully cool compared to Honshu. It sounds like you really got your money's worth from the railpass! But where did you sleep at Tokyo station???

Myself I spent one night in Shinagawa station as I missed my last train back. I realized lot of ordinary salarymen slept there. Women tiptoed past them to hail a cab.
Policeman was walking around and made sure everyone is safe, and occasionally fixed someone's cover. I expected when he delivers a breakfast.
 
But seriously, what do you think, is it safe to sleep in such place?

Why not if it is not warm enough?
I feeled myself pretty safe there.
Nobody didnt threaten us.
and there was two police mens going around with a car.
I wouldnt do that no where else than in japan!
