So my new host family lives just a few blocks away from my previous one, still in Mejiro.. lol.. Welcome to the Ozaki's family.. =] There's father and mother.. Father is a Rotarian and secretary of the club.. And mother is a housewife =]
And welcome to my new room.. Yeap.. And now.. I have to unpack =..="

Ise Grand Shrine!
☆6th February 2011 Sunday☆
Had buffet style breakfast at the top floor ;D
Incident: So there was this sloppy looking guy sitting at the next table trying to talk (English) to the Western couple who was trying to have their breakfast at next table.. xD The awkward conversation was about him wanting to give them a tour around the Mount' Fuji area and finally, he requested on exchanging phone numbers.. Obviously, the couple was reluctant but they got his number and was like, "Sure, we'll call you if we have the time thank you very much" while getting ready to leave.
And I thought,"Hahah, they will NEVER do that! They'll just delete his number later! LOL!"
Soon after, I heard "Give me a miss call so I can have your number too" And I felt so bad for the couple, I could imagine the trouble they're gonna face xD And so they did and left gloomily.. Next, we got "attacked"! LOL! It seems like he is some kind of a professor and looking at him.. I could somehow guess that he'd over worked or something =..= A little "cuckoo" get what I mean?? And again he was trying prove his English after discovering I'm an exchange student.. =..=" Thankfully, we were almost done with breakfast when he started talking..
The highlight was that when we left, he shouted goodbye from behind and when I turned to do the same.. He winked at me with a perverted smile on his face which gave me goosebumps.. Uhhh.. It's still stucked in my head.. T____T One of the grossest experience in my life.......
A whole Hina-kazari set in the hotel! =D
We checked out and departed for Ise ^____^
We're going to visit one of the most famous and oldest shrine in Japan ;D
Ise Grand Shrine was divided into two regions.. Naikū (内宮) and Gekū (外宮).
And here's the entrance to the Gekū (外宮)..
Pictures of the shrine.. =]
A huge tree trunk as old as.. .. Hm.. Yes.. Very old.. =p
A piece of Japanese culture ^____^
Entrance to the Naikū (内宮)..
Pictures of the shrine.. =]
There's a beautiful river flowing through the shrines ^____^
Look at this priceless view =D
Ojiro's family and me~ =')
Another unbelievable experience.. O..o"
Everyone is trying to get to the top to say their prayers..
We're almost there after all the squeezing and pushing..
皇大神宮 (Kōtai Jingū)
And lots of old Japanese houses which I love so much =D
Ise is also famous for it's high quality beef! p=
It was already night time when we reached Tokyo.. We had Suki Yaki for dinner! Teehee! ^____^♥

Nagoya with Ojiro!
☆5th February 2011 Saturday☆
So the president of Ikebukuro Rotary Club, Ojiro-san wanted to host me but of some inconvenience, couldn't.. So he and his wife decided to take me on a trip to Nagoya! =D Hooray~!
And of course we took the Shinkansen ;]
Yes, Mount. Fuji~!
After checking in the awesome hotel, we first visited the Nagoya Castle =]
名古屋城 (Nagoya-jō)
Like every other royal property.. It's freaking wide.. =p
Can you guess which part of the castle this object is?? =]
Can you spot it now?? ^____^
Look at the beautiful scenery~♥
There! Right on the roof top! =D
Ojiro-san's wife! She's very sweet and kind lady =] Very special ^^ And if you look properly, she kinda looks like 大長今 from the Korean drama xD
Going into the castle~
View from the top of the castle =]
We can see our hotel from here =D
Awesome picture ;D
Random but interesting picture from history =p
Leaving the castle..
Nagoya famous きしめん (Kishimen)~♥
Next destination was Nagoya Tokugawa Art Museum =]
徳川美術館 (Tokugawa Bijutsukan)
Flowers of Japan~♥
There's so many interesting stuff in the museum but photos aren't allow to be taken.. I managed this though.. It's a Hina-kazari set.. Check it out, it has a very interesting meaning =]
There's also a beautiful park just outside the museum ^____^
River flowing through the park..
Here's something interesting =]
Look at the size of the flower! xD
"Sun" flower ♥
Love this pink ^____^♥
A Japanese Water Harp is something really fascinating! The harp consists of a buried earthenware pot, which is tipped upside down and has a hole drilled at the top. When drops of water fall through onto a permanent layer of water at the base it creates a subtle musical effect which differs depending on the weather. I ♥ it!=D
Ojiro-san's wife =']
Awesome pic! >____<
Another awesome pic! xD
The whole view of the garden.. Subarashii~! =D
More of those gigantic flowers~♥
This is the one fan that caught my eyes =] It's very simple but somehow special ♥ I regretted not buying it =..=
I did not mention earlier but we're staying at the Nagoya Marriott Associa Hotel! =D And I again have an awesome room all to myself! xD
And this toilet..
And this beautiful scenery from ma' window..
And we had this wonderful twilight dinner at the hotel~
The ceiling was awesome too.. It's like looking at the universe.. =]
First we had the appetizer..
Then pasta p=
Pizza~!!! =D
Main dish.. Beef xD
And dessert~ ^____^♥
Night view from my room kekekekex..
Sweet dreams everyone ;D
