Our unit (3) - sneak preview

It's really a sneak preview. We "sneaked" inside the about-to-finish condominium we bought, after asked permission from the guard, who didn't really care the intruders like us. It was all messy and every area was under painting, patching etc. Here's the swimming pool area. Look messy right.

Welcome to our unit. We climbed to 12th floor to get here.

Overall the unit was ok but a bit disappointed with the master bedroom. Smaller. Even smaller than my current bedroom. But it should be sufficient.

Living room.

Kitchen area.

One thing we discovered, the corridor is spacious and it does look quite exclusive for the corner units.

We also sneaked in other units, a smaller type. Found out the balcony wasn't that impressive. You can peek each other on the upper and lower floor.

It's time to get the idea flowing for the house arrangement and renovation. She said kitchen will be the most needed renovation. Agreed.

The wedding of ....

This wedding has some similarity with ours but, by comparison in every detail, each is still distinctly unique.

Akiu Onsen and waterfall

Again, based on a recommendation from an AI tool, I took a day trip to the Akiu Onsen area using public transport. Visiting an onsen wasn’t really my main agenda—it was the waterfall, Akiu Otaki Waterfall, that I wanted to see. Getting to the Akiu area requires careful planning around the public bus schedule. I took a bus from the Nagamachiminami area. Honestly, I didn’t even know where that was—I just followed Google’s directions. I arrived in Akiu Onsen town at 9 a.m. Just a short walk from the stop, you can enjoy a view of Rairaikyo Gorge. You can basically walk around the whole town in about 30 minutes. Since I couldn’t locate the public bathhouse, I decided to head to the waterfall. Unfortunately, the bus to the waterfall had already left, and the next one wouldn’t arrive until after lunch. Walking there would’ve taken too long—about 4 km, I think—so I had lunch first. After lunch, I waited for the bus to the waterfall. It was truly a great sight. If I’d had more time, I would hav...

Kumano Kodo - Day 2

After a good rest, I departed for Hosshimon-oji. The hotel provided free transit to the Hongu area, so I saved some time waiting for the bus. The plan for the day was a 7 km walk from Hosshimon-oji to Oyunohara. Since my next lodging was in the Yunomine Onsen area, I decided to add an extra walk from Oyunohara to Yunomine Onsen, which was about 2.2 km. At Hosshimon-oji, the trail is essentially a connecting route to the Takijiri trail. The previous stamping station was about 800 meters from Hosshimon-oji, so I made a detour to Inohana-oji. That detour added approximately 1.6 km to my journey, taking about 30 minutes or more. From Hosshimon-oji (after detouring via Inohana-oji), I started walking toward Hongu Taisha, which was about a 2.5-hour walk. Along the way, I stopped to rest and take photos. It was quite a leisurely walk. Part of the trail is paved, while the rest consists of forest paths lined with cypress trees (I guess). By the time I reached the town around Hongu Taisha, it w...
