Morning at Miurakaigan

Wanderlust November 06, 2018 0

Sweaty. So when I was in Yokosuka, on a fine summer day, I decided this would be the last beach I’d go for the season.

But first, breakfast. I don’t usually eat apple pie but that day is an apple pie kind of day. Also, it's a long walk from the station.

Actually.

It was very calm when I went. I think I was there before 7 so not a lot of people still. There were people though, few people there.

beauty

I like the sound of the waves. Calms me down. But you know that already.

I actually didn't do much in here. Walked. Walked a lot in fact.

A little tiring. Carried my sandals for a while and walked barefoot. Coz who goes to these places in high heels, right? ME.

MiuraKaigan

Glittery

I’ve actually planned on going to this beach before. But last year I went to Zushi Beach instead of here which is kind of stupid because this Miura beach is number 1 on the list. Also, probably not a place for me to tan because just by looking at the size of it, it’s probably very popular with beach goers so you know, I’m not for one to just get naked in front of anyone.

Amazing

Water is so cold. I liked it. What is this thing? How?

This place would be much better with friends of course. But walking around alone is good too. I wish my friends were with me though. Oh well.

Selfie of uneven eyes

I find these amusing.

Oh the waves

Still not the prettiest beach I’ve seen in my life but compared to everything else I’ve seen here in Japan, it’s pretty. I miss the Philippines.

Also walked in the waters barefooted. Would have loved a little dip but I wasn’t prepared.

Risky and pretty

Will probably not be back here anytime soon. This will be missed. Ciao!

Fuji Q Highlands SUCCESS

JAPAN 2018 November 02, 2018 0

So I told you what happened to our failed trip and lo and behold, the next time (being this time) was a success! Yas team! We actually have been here before, it’s just that we went with a car last time so all this commute thing is new. It was kind of a very long but okay trip.

Twists and Turns

Believe me. My kind of favorite ride. New favorite ride. I liked the King last time. Now this one.

No shame. I know I'm like almost half a year late but hey! I'm trying. Hahaha I'm so sorry I've been hella busy for the past 10 months. I'm trying to recover though so expect me back!

Matcha lookin' at?

I used to really really like Matcha. But now I’m just kind of okay with it. Still my favorite Starbucks drink though! I do think it’s a very comforting flavor. I think I’m more of a chocolate person now. Sometimes vanilla. Only creamy vanillas though.

This Fuji yama shaped taiyaki though! Very warm filling! Very yummy. I do suggest you try this! We got the chocolate and custard flavored ones. They were both yummy! Me likey,

merry-go-round

scary

One of the reasons why my sisters want to go here again is to actually enter the haunted hospital that we missed last time. If interested, here's a link to that. I'm actually not a fan of the whole haunted house thingy and stuff but hey! Why the hell not, right? Is it scary? Maybe. Will I enter again? Maybe. I don't know for sure. It's not that bad. Kind of defeats its purpose to be honest.

This is probably my favorite spot in the whole place. Fuji Q is not actually a very visual place but this one is pretty.

With my crew!

Food!

Pink

My sister Mika made me this shorts! Yay! Also, I came from work when we went to this place. What sleep?

Also one of my favorite spots. Don't ask.

I had fun once again with my sisters! Ciao!

Flowers and China

So...we went here because we kind of failed at another thing but thankful for the failure anyways. So here's what happened. Earlier that morning, we were supposed to go to Fuji Q Highlands. But we failed. We waited at this highway bus station but we didn’t know we needed to have a reservation so we waited for nothing basically. Around 5 buses passed by and rejected us so then we then realized it’s time to give up. There’s that!

I like! I used to always go here before. But you know that already, yeah? I will miss this place when I leave. Oh my goodness, I can’t believe I’m saying goodbye already. I will come back here one more time before I leave. Or two!

Yas

Yamashita Park

We went during the rose festival. Always gorgeous!

SISTERS

Selfie!

Only my second time during the season but yeah it’s as magical as the first time I went. Something my mom would enjoy more than us. But you know, killing two birds in one stone. Actually three!

rose garden

pink

We actually went later that day coz I remember we even slept a little bit before going. Always nice.

Have you been?

My favorite spot!

I mean, right? My sister’s nth time here too! Not with all the roses though. I remember watching over their little asses run! Parents always bring them here because there’s a nearby place that looks like an open space. Also! We feed the pigeons. Illegally of course.

I told you guys that I have been here before, yeah? It looks a lot different than the first time! I’ll link that post before here so, click here if you want to take a look.
