The journey started in Prague

Getting to Prague city center via public transport was easy. We quickly checked in to our AirBnB place. In recent years, I've been lodging using AirBnB as I can have access to kitchen and washer with a price less than those offered by hotels. We stayed at the upper part area from Nadroni Museum. Besides the museum was an opera house. Even though these two places were near to where we stayed, we didn't drop by that places. Instead, we headed straight to the Old Town and across the Vltava river (the following day). I have to admit that for this trip, I didn't do much background check on the places nor make any proper plan of the itinerary visit. My bad. Well, further down from the museum was Wenceslas Square. After a few minutes walk along the street, we reached Old Town area. Needless to say, the must-see object in that area is the Prague Astronomical Clock. I got to know this place from my friend, not from last minute reading. Luckily he told me, otherwise I would become a dumb and uninformed traveller. Not far from there, we joined a walking tour. And that's where I had my first lesson of the city.

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.
