 Akita city is a capital city at Akita prefecture. Akita city has castles. Sensyu park is just in front of Akita station. Around Akita castle and other main streets, some old woman sell ice creams.  They make instant shop around castle at summer. You can see several shop around it. A special thing is a shape of ice cream like as following photo.    A women makes this shape of ice cream in front of you. This shape is rose flower. Pink color is strawberry flavor taste and yellow one is banana flavor taste. Actually this taste is not as such natural one. In my image, it taste is soda flavor taste. But I did not feel bad when I took it. Actually, basically, I do not like banana taste of foods. But I did not make image of banana when I ate it. So, I can repeat to buy this ice cream. This taste is good for hot summer.   As I wrote, we can buy it around city from old woman, but i found it in convenience store. I did not have any hesitation to buy it or not wh...

I saw Dr. yellow! Dr. yellow is a kind of Shinkansen super express. Dr. yellow is running on Tokaido shinkansen line and  on Sanyo shinkansen line. Tokaido shinkansen line is the oldest shinkansen line in japan. a service area is between Tokyo station and ShinOsaka station. And sanyo shinkansen line is for ShinOsaka station to Hakata station. Both lines are very important public transportation for many seen. Tokaido shinkansen line serves shinkansens every 3 minutes and 30 seconds from both of Tokyo station and ShinOsaka station. And we do no need to change any trains from Tokaido shinkansen line to Sanyo shinkansen line. If we are living around one of Tokyo area, Osaka area or Hakata area, then shinkansen line is more convenient than air lines for moving between such three area. (If we can book super cheap air line tickets, then air line is more cheap than shinkansen line. Because shinkansen line has few discount tickets. And shinkansen line's discount rate is not so b...

End of last year, I went to cycling to Ikebukuro. Ikebukuro is one of the main city on Yamanote-line (loop line) It is north area of Tokyo (loop-line). Basically, most rail lines on mid-tokyo are as subway or elevated railway. So, it made my so surprising, when I saw it.  This is tram in tokyo. I did not know that tokyo also has a tram. Following photo is another tram station. I saw several tram on the railway. Most of them are painted with different line (maybe...) This tram is named Toden-Arakawa-Line. This line is for Waseda University. I could not take the tram, becase I rode my bicycle. However, I will take the tram on some day. Following river is River, Kanda. The river is used on some old japanese song.

We went to Lego-land in Denmark. However, we could not enter it at that day due to holiday. Well, we went to Lego discovery center in Odaiba, Tokyo. Some day, Lego Discovery center makes an event for  adult people.  And, we saw many items. I will write about them later. Today, I will write about dragon. Both of Hotel Legoland (denmark) and Lego discovery center (Tokyo ) have dragon.  They have common parts but bit difference. So, I write about the dragon. When you enter to Hotel Lego-land from main entrance, then green dragon gives your welcome. As following dragon. the dragon is so big more than 2 meters tall (maybe)  The dragon is much wider than a dragon of my images.  And a dragon in my images has two horns as deer. However the dragon has a horns as unicorn (uni??) However, this dragon is enough power. I like this dragon, too. The cute point is his tongue especially the fork of thongue.

Starbucks are most cities in the world wide. Sure, we use starbucks in some situation not only weekend but also business sean. One of my friends said that a NY cheesecake by starbucks is a best cake for him. And, it is easy to find starbucks in a city. Because we know the symbol of the starbucks, even if they are little bit difference on each countries. The coffee is not so special but the quality of coffees are not so difference. Well, I found a thing about starbucks. ( I think it is common thing for people who are in EU.) The coffee taste are quite difference among the countries. Before to leave from japan, I thought starbucks are serve coffees similar qualities and taste. We tried not only starbucks  but also local cafe in each cities.  There are many good cafes in germany and north europe. Starbucks served  coffees which are much for each nationalities. So, we could try many difference type of starbucks coffees. And I was surprised about custom menu. Usual...

We found old stile of japan in tokyo, when we walked around Kagurazaka https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kagurazaka　Wikipedia Kagurazaka Like as above, the views are imagined as a seen of edo period.

Nara is one of a the most famous sightseeing area in japan. It is very historical city as kyoto. But nara is much older city in japan to compare with kyoto. There is many temples, ancient tomb ............ and deers.  In some case and some area, deers are tagged as harmful animal. Because they eat many agricultural products and skin of trees. However, in Nara, deers are protected by law in the nara local government. I dont remember very well, but because deers are pet of one of budda, Deers can be stay freely. And some sellers who provide food for deers  are  around Todaiji (the largest daibutu in japan). Deers already know that tourists give foods to deers. So, deers come to tourists for getting foods, even if a tourist do not have any foods. And if deers detect that the tourist do not have any foods then deers stopping to come ^^;;; they know very well Some people who has kids were worried to bring your kinds to around deers. Because deers have strong...

Today, I read a news which was about a service for map. Recently, we use google, yahoo  or other maps on your computer and your mobile phone. I like there system, because I don't need to being any paper when I go some unknown places (in my country.) And, we can make virtual travel using the map. The following link is point to a service for a map which you can compare current map in Japan and old days map in Japan at same screen. The current version has limitation for supported area, however you can check for big cities as Tokyo area, Osaka area and some others. (And the service is provided in Japanese. I don't think you don't need to be able to read japanese when you check the map in many situation. ) When you want to find new your house, you can check the old days' structure of ground. There are many earth quake in japan. So, if your new place were in a sea or river, then you will have many risks for living in your new house. In such situation, we can also use th...
