Angels and Demons

After a month of struggling, finally I managed to finish "Angels and Demons" by Dan Brown. It shouldn't take that long. Particularly because the story is quite boring. I've read "Deception Point" which was quite interesting. Both novels have the same kind of story structure and flow. Worst, "Angels and Demons" could have similar pattern with "Da Vinci Code". One clue leads to another clue. And finally you found the non-suspecting guy is the bad guy. Well, from the title, one can guess the bad guy is actually a good guy in disguise. Or shall I say a bad guy in disguise?

What have I learned from "Angels and Demons"? Vatican City and Bernini's work.

Guess I have to stop reading novel for a mean time.......

Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

Just came back from Japan last week. Went to Tokyo for conference and added side trip to Tateyama Alpine Route and Kanazawa. I must say that Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route was great. You can do the trip either from Nagano side or Toyama side. For us, we did it from the Nagano side. Took the Shinkansen to Nagano early morning. Then boarded the express bus to Ogizawa. From there, we boarded the tunnel electric bus to get to Kurobe Dam. From the dam, it was all the way up to the peak (almost). Murodo is the highlight of the route. This is the place where you get to see snow covered peak and lake. In spring, there's snow wall nearby Murodo station. From Murodo, we descended to Bijodaira and Tateyama Station to catch the local train back to Toyama. The fare for the entire route is not cheap, but it's worth it. A hike from Bijodaira to Murodo should be interesting, which can be considered in future. View from the tunnel electric bus, onward to Kurobe Dam Arrived at Kurobe Dam View of t...

MyVi

Had got my new MyVi last Friday. Initial consumption was a litre for a 10-km drive. Well, it seems quite costly but this is still early to judge as the engine needs up to 5,000km drive to get optimize (that's what people tell me). Enjoy driving it.
