It’s taken me forever finish cataloguing a third of my trip. I need to hurry up and finish writing entries before I forget everything I did! Plus I”ve had to backpost all these entries! +++ So moving onto Tokyo – We took a 50-seater plane from Sapporo to Tokyo. It was the tiniest plane I’ve ever been on, but luckily there wasn’t a lot of turbulence and we landed in Tokyo safely. As we were running late, the first thing…
It didn’t seem like we had done anything in Hokkaido other than attend the Arashi concert. On Monday we finally had a full day of sightseeing.

Of course, it was worth it to be part of their 10th anniversary. Aside from a minor disturbance that night involving a combini-bought sandwich, I had a great time at the concert. It was starting to get dark around 5:00pm when we emerged from the station. Of course to…
I think the one word to summarize the con good experience is this – WET. Man, it was raining steadily the entire day of the first show! I guess considering it’s Sapporo, it was a good thing that it wasn’t actually snowing, but the rain really dampened the spirits lining up for concert goods, especially so early in the morning! My sister and I had gotten out of the subway station around half an hour before the con goods were…
