The Boat Trip in Noto Sea - Ishikawa

31/07/2010

This trip was so sudden. Friends called me out to join  with them to  go to Ishikawa. I had already been to Kanazawa  but my love for traveling won. By 8.40 in the morning, I was waiting for my friends at the Toyama station.



These two bridges connect the Noto isalnd with Honshu, the main island of Japan.Leaving the second bridge brings you to Noto of Ishikawa prefecture. It is a place where no trains run, only buses.

I always wanted to visit here but the transportation was  a problem. Well, after all it was  a dream coming true.
We headed to "gan mon" of Ishikawa. A boat ride around the place shows you , the different natural patterns and designs on the rocks in the beach. Being different from the sea we saw at the other side of the Noto Island the Sea near ganmon is really windy and rough. Well, it resembles the beaches of Sri Lanka.

GanMon Cave where people can enter and exit.

The fee for the boat ride of 20 minutes is 1000yen. It is fun when it rides the waves but I still felt it was just  a little too high for what we get in return . But the nature is still priceless.

Tateyama Alpine Route - Murado Station

19/07/2010 Another dream coming true. I always wanted to go there.I was collecting leaflets, pamphlets about this but never thought of   going due to the high costs. Well, luck was upon me this one time. It was early morning of 5.45 and I was waiting for my sensei s vehicle in front of  Toyama Station. I did know the plans for the day but that we were going to Tateyama. Were we going to Kurobe Dam too, or going to Kurobe Dam?Were we going to take the Alpen Route or go straight to Kurobe? Surprises were waiting. We reached Tateyama Station and I knew it is my dream coming true. Weather and information of the day  It was around 14degrees at the top of the mountain while it was nearly 36degrees at the foot. We were simply above the clouds and the temperature difference was too much to bear. It was cold in the summer. Early in the morning when we passed the Murodo staion on our way to Kurobe dam it was clear all around. in the aftern...

Onabe - Japanese Hot Pot

15/05/2010 It was after spending the evening at Thai Festival 2010 in Yoyogi,Shibuya. The dinner was decided on "Nabe" at a shibuya chain restaurant of Japanese hot pot. I have always loved nabe. I have had shabu shabu hotpot, sukiyaki hotpot and seafood hotpot at Japanese houses and this was the first time I am having it at a restaurant. So I thought of sharing some moments of the supreme happiness of eating Nabe - the Japanese hotpot. Beef, eggs and the vegetables  The whole table of ingredients for the Nabe in one shot Shabu shabu and sukiyaki on one hotplate finally you dip the boiled slice of meat in the "tare" and eat. This chain restaurant is in Shibuya and limitless "tabehoudai" for less than 2000yen. Good service and loved the meat.   All Rights Reserved.
