BACK to the Southern hemisphere ! What do you expect???

WARM (HOT) and HUMID of course !!! Especially back home here in singapore. The minute we stepped out from our flight, havent even get out of the airport, we could feel the difference right away.

Despite having to fight cold, and the crazy jam that we encountered, it was overall a great trip. A difference experience from Hokkaido actually. First half of the trip was quite rush actually, but the other half was ok and relaxing. Food was not as good as we had in Hokkaido, but we had more variety this round. And they are all "OISHII ne". The hotels we stayed at all had at least one english channel... ha ha :D. In Hokkaido, you could barely find one ok. And the rooms werent as small as we expected. Thought that in cities like Tokyo and Osaka, we would probably stay in super small rooms. But surprisingly, they were all quite big and comfortable.

Finally, an unexpected chance to experience real snowfall. And not just mild snowfall know, it was like a heavy rain in singapore. Though cold, it was fun-filled and beauuuuttttifuuuul... of course, enjoying the snow with your mouth "ge ge ge ge" at the same time :D

On the whole, we enjoyed the trip very much. Best part, we had snow and scenery. And also this was a family trip. With our busy schedules these days, how often a family trip can really be arranged... Bad part, my poor wife got to put on a lot more layers... it was really cold... even my "gung-ho" mum felt cold and had to add layers... Luckily we brought enough cold wear.

We have yet upload the pictures... will be doing so soon... Meanwhile, here's a pic... :D




Oh boy, I sure miss Japan or rather the cold weather... :D - Ant
