So I’m finally making an effort to finish all my blog posts in a timely manner. I went to Mie in May and I’m writing about it two months later. That is still considered a timely manner right? =P For my two day trip to Mie, I went with my dad and my uncle. My uncle had been to Mie before, so I was lucky enough that I didn’t have to do any advance planning for our trip. My uncle…

Inuyama

Inuyama

A week ago my friend Mami and I went to Inuyama. Inuyama is about 30 minutes by train from Nagoya, so it makes a good day trip for those who want to get out of the city.

Okinawa Part 2

Okinawa Part 2

Day two of my Okinawa trip started extremely early. I woke up just before 6am, got downstairs right when breakfast started at 6:30am, ate as much as I could within 10 minutes, then beelined for the bus stop right outside the Prefectural Office. We had to be on time to catch the Yanbaru Express towards Ocean Expo Park which left right at 6:50am. One of the downsides of not renting a car in Okinawa is having to plan everything around…
