On A Bleak Winter’s Day

Cold and raw the north wind doth blow Bleak in the morning early All the hills covered with snow And winter’s come now fairly Still very, very cold in Tokyo?

On The Run – Yufuin

Read my first post of this “On The Run” series at: On The Run – Yokohama to know why I’m all excited about doing morning runs in Japan. ^^ I didn’t really have running gear suitable for the colder season and buying new ones would be such a waste since I’m only using it a few times so to keep me warm, I just put on my Uniqlo heatech shirt and another shirt on top it and my usual capri pants

A Perfect Arch

On a train ride one wet morning in Japan, I saw a perfectly arched rainbow through the window of my train.

Postcards To Home

Rather than sending them to others back home, we love sending postcards to ourselves from each city we visited when we are vacationing in Japan. It’s fun to look at the postcards and the stamps not to mention if there’s any special postmark on it. ^^ This year, we have Hakodate, Yufuin, Dogo Onsen (Matsuyama), Nara, Enoshima, Kagawa added to our postcard collection.

Merry Xmas!

In the spirit of Xmas merriness and sharing and whatnot, here’s some random illumination/Christmassy shots I took while we were in Japan. Merry Christmas to those who celebrate and a Happy New Year to everyone!

The Kagawa Prefecture

I started the day by going out for a run (alone, this time) at 6.00am. The Takamatsu Port is just about 1km away from the hotel we were staying in. It helped that I saw a runner (in compression wear, no less) along the way so I just kept pace (read: make sure he was within sight) with him until I knew roughly where I wanted to do my run.
