It was a crazy golden week this year. My parents flew in from the United States to spend a couple of weeks with me. It was really good to be with them. We had a good time and went everywhere in the last couple of weeks. Some pictures of the places went are below.
First we went to Nara. I have been there several times but my parents have never been. The green on the Japanese maples was beautiful!! Then of coarse the deer in Nara are always around.
After Nara, We headed over to Inuyama Castle. I have never been there before but decided I should go since I live in Nagoya. I was impressed.
After Inuyama, we started our actual GW vacation. We first went to Shirakawa. The scene in this village is incredible. We really enjoyed spending the afternoon there.
After Shirakawa we went to Kanazawa.
From Kanazawa I went to Notohanto and drove down the coast to Totori. We saw some beautiful coastline and beaches. Even got to see the town of Ohbama..."yes we can"!!
On the wat to Tottori we stopped at a bed and breakfast. It was dark when we got there but when we woke up the view from my room was so beautiful!! It was a nice sunrise!!
We then arrived to Tottori to see the sand dune beach and take a cruise around the area to see the rocks and water. I decided I wanted to live there. Too bad there is no job for me though..
Then for the last part of this trip we went back up to Tokyo to Disney Sea and Disneyland for a couple of days. Golden week was over so the parks were not too busy. We had plenty of time to relax and see both parks.
So it was a crazy few weeks and I did a lot of driving. But I love driving so no problem. Now its back to reality... Sometimes I hate reality!!
