Hokkaido
This March holidays I’ll be going to Japan!!! I’m so happy I can hardly breathe right now. I’m really angry because I’m doing this for the third time already!!! It goes kaboom every time I try to post it on Livejournal. I’m writing something over and over and over again so I can’t really remember what I wrote the previous 2 times. I’ll just write down roughly the stuff I wrote down previously.... What am I talking about. Okay. So I’ll be going to Japan!!!! Yeah, you kind of get it already. But it’s just so cool. And I’ll be going skiing too. So double the wow part for me! Haha. We’ll (My Godparents, my sis and I) be going to the Northern part of Japan, Hokkaido. We’ll be travelling around the whole time, and not just stick to one place. I’ll be going for the most of the week that we have, and I don’t expect that I’ll finish my homework anytime soon. I’ll try to do some on the plane though. That’s the worst thing about it. We won’t be going in a tour, with guides and stuff. We like to do it on our own, explore around, get lost but then get it right the next time we come again. It’s better that way. But to each their own. We’re getting an 8-seater, with an English voiced over GPS so we can get our way around easily. Although only 4 of us are going, we need an 8-seater for all our luggages. We have to bring 4 big luggages just for our really big winter stuff!
We’re gonna take this airlines called the All-nippon airways. I’ve never heard of it before but I guess it’s quite famous in Japan because it’s a 5 star airline with food and games and TV and all that stuff. Pretty cool. We will be doing a transit at Tokyo before landing at Hokkaido though. We’ll be going to Sapporo, Noboribetsu and 3 other different places in Hokkaido. Chocolate and beer factories we’ll visit too. I forgot what the ski resort was called. Oh, and we’ll go to Odori Park as well. Staying at different hotels will be a great thing for me, and one night we’ll even go to a hotel which has 7 different spring water channelled to it! We’ll get to bathe in it and do whatever stuff they do in hot springs. But it’s the most expensive hotel as well.
Just on Sunday we went to buy lots of ‘jiabulong’ stuff like woollen socks, long johns, mufflers, and heat pads. Temperatures can reach from -4 to 4 degrees Celsius in Hokkaido although it’s nearing the end of winter. I’m really looking forward to it because it’ll be real cold. I’m excited enough to get away from hot sunny places.....
