I GO TO JAPAN 　

After much planning and lots of Japanese lessons of Japanese crammed into a month I was finally on my way to Japan. After my plane landed in Tokyo (also my first stop) I got my rental car ( a Toyota ) I drove to my hotel for the night so I could get a good start the following day. After I ate a huge breakfast, I was on my way for the for the trip. As I drove around Tokyo I drove past the most important buildings in the capital like the Toyota company where I test drove a few of the cars . (so awesome!). After I went to an arcade where I played a drifting game to test my skill. Turns out I stunk and sometimes I kept crashing the cars on purpose just for the fun of it ( it was fun!). After I left I was better at the game than when I started. After I drove a short drive to Chiba where I went to … Disney world! I went in and bought a whole bunch of tickets and the went straight to the water rides where I went on them repeatedly. Afterward I had to go change because I was soaked to the bone (it was also a bit windy, luckily I didn’t catch cold or it would have ruined the trip). Afterward I went and had a bunch of junk food. Especially the dango and the Yokisoba (after ward I was completely knocked out when I got to my hotel room ). After I awoke again (and ate breakfast . Cant forget about it ) I drove to Osaka and went to the famous Tsutenkaku Tower which is considered a icon for many who live there as well as a symbol that represents their city. After exchanging my dollars to yen so I could pay for my entrance fee I went in side . The guide of the tower had seen me ex change my money and asked how I new how much I should be getting back. I told her about the conversion from dollars to yen and showed her an example. After I was on the viewing platform I went down ad went around trying some of the food from the stands in the street. ( the dango was the best) After spending my day in Osaka I drove to Kyoto . I arrived in the night so I just went to a hotel and slept . After getting up getting ready I started my way around Kyoto . I went to the temples and the bamboo gardens which where really, REALLY peace full . After I tried some of the food from Kyoto . Of course I couldn’t go with out trying it . (teriyaki, yakuniku,Yokisoba, dango, ramen, pocky, yan-yan, steamed pork buns, White rice, !!!!!!!!!!!). After I let my stomach digest I went full speed ahead to Hamanaki. When I got to Hamanaki ( and after getting of the hook with the police for speed drivin. They thought I was a clueless foreigner ) it was really late so I just went to am hotel to check in and go to sleep. When I woke up from a VERY good sleep I went around hamanaki which is famous for their geisha . I went to the learning school an got a chance to talk to a maiko and a full fledged geisha . They taught me a few tricks with their fans ( I got the hang of it after a few go’s and after dropping my fans so much . And after replacing a fan that broke. They where made of paper. ) I also leared a few notes on the koto, a Japanese instrument. Before I left they presented me with a very beautiful kimono with a cherry flower design on it. The following day I went back to Tokyo to return home (but first I went to the shops and bought gifts. ). And thus concludes my trip to Japan.
