Titech

I must thank my Prof for selecting me to attend a workshop in Tokyo recently. The workshop was held in Tokyo Institute of Technology (TITech) - Ookayama campus. I would say the premise is very convenient. The train station is just across the street from the main gate. Nearby there are rows of shops and eateries. Not to mention McD is situated right opposite the main gate too. The campus is not big. You can cover the entire campus by foot. This makes the navigation easy; unlike our local public university. Some of the buildings are quite artistic (check out the library building). The main administration building is the most photographed building in the campus, I guess, as it's one of the earliest establishments. A decent place to study I would reckon.

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.
