Kyoto Tanabata Festival of Lights 2015

August 2015 Tanabata Festival in Kyoto ended tonight. Here are a few scenes from the Kamo River event. In previous years, I have only gone to the Horikawa River scene.

Japanese Shrine on top of a building in Kitakyushu

After leaving Nara, I headed to Hakata where I spent the night. On the way to Hakata, I stopped at Osaka Station to transfer to Shin-Osaka Station so I could ride the Shinkansen. Caught a quick glimpse of Pichon-kun. Got a short clip of the illumination in front of Hakata Station.

In the morning I left Hakata and rode the Shinkansen to Kokura. Even with a Japan Rail Pass, I rode the Nozomi train to Kokura as the schedule for the Hikari train was going to get me in Kokura way too late. At Kokura Station I thought I was going to get stopped by the station staff for riding the Nozomi but they didn't bother me. Don't do what I did though. If you get caught, you will have to pay the full fare of whatever portion you rode and they may confiscate your rail pass.

Obligatory stop to see Maetel and Captain Harlock.

Walked in front of the Crown Milan bakery in Kyomachi to look at a bunch of tasty bread that I wanted to eat but didn't end up buying. I will revisit Crown in a later video though.

Found out that I could reserve the pre-sale tickets for the Kitakyushu Ramen Festival online so I didn't have to go all the way to Mojiko in order to get them. Looked up and I saw the shrine on top of the Colet building. Figured I had some time to kill so I went exploring up to the top.

Turns out the shrine on top of the building is Kasamori Inari Jinja. It is supposed to be up there protecting the surrounding area and bringing prosperity to Kitakyushu. I would have to say it's working. It is one of the strangest places to find a shrine though.

Japan Rail Trip #19: Kanazawa to Aomori 800km 金沢から青森へ

We left Kanazawa and headed to Aomori. It's long long way, half way up the north of Japan.
Although the journey was not to bad for the Shinkansen is very fast and comfortable. Though we noticed there is less room on the Shinkansens leaving Tokyo, compared to for example the Shinkansens in Kyushu.
To get from Kanazawa to Aomori involved two Shinkansens, then a transfer at the end to a local train.
The first Shinkansen was the Kanazawa Shinkansen & the second was the Tohoku Shinkansen.

Once we got to the Aomori train station June realised that she was not sure if she had booked the hotel accommodation, for the website she had used had crashed during the booking. She checked online and yes the booking had not gone through. Not a problem through Aormori was not busy and the Onsen Hotel we wanted had plenty of availability.

As mentioned we were staying in an Onsen hotel, interestingly enough the Onsen is actually open to the public at a reasonable price. So it was quite busy. Nige also noted that Aomori people seem to like their TV for there was one in the Onsen sauna.

After dinner we tried to find a local restaurant preferably iszakaya (pub food). Unfortunately the area we were looking at was full of Japanese chain izakaya's and we ended up going to a Kagoshima chain izakaya, which was a little overpriced and not so tasty.
Again they had TV's in the restaurant booths.

Everyone in Aomori used different accent of Japanese, called 'Tsugaru-ben'. Aomori dialect.
