Funny Jokei temple

Strange, I forgot about this trip, only looking through my posts for it I found that did not write anything.
I found this place in some photo on Google+. Photo was about old man statue sitting with laptop.

CP+ 2014

Several weeks ago I visited CP+ 2014 in Yokohama where I could see and touch new cameras. I was able to get there on weekends, but on Friday because of heavy snow it was announced that CP+ is finished. Fortunately on Sunday they reopened it again.

Midtown Illumination

As usually a month before Christmas Japan covers by illumination, even if it's not really a holiday.
Midtown tower park was not an exception.


Whole field was covered by thousands of animated LEDs.

Shinrinkoen and kudamonogari

Went for kudamonogari (fruits harvest) with my colleagues. That was somewhere in Saitama near Shinrinkoen station on Tobu tojo line. Walked through gardens and farms a while. There is nothing to explain, so I put photos as slideshow.

We came at 12pm and finished at 2pm. One apple was around 100yen. Then together with bags with apples we went to Shinrin park, which was about twice further than apple garden.

Kamioka

This trip happened more than 2 years ago. Ralphmirebs called me and proposed to visit small abandoned miners town somewhere near Toyama, or, more precisely, Kamioka district of Hida city, but Kamioka looks like it's own town.
We went by night bus to Toyama first, but we had no much time there and I could not find anything interesting near the station for photo. We spent around an hour waiting for the first morning train to the south. At 8:30am we got to train station in Inotani village, the station and the village were about the same size.
