Day 02 – [09 Aug] on the road to Nagasaki(長崎)
Mar 5th
It was maybe after 1 hour odd driving from Unzen(雲仙). Driving was just pleasant; the road was good, and the weather perfectly sunny to drive. But it was still hot, so I began to be sleepy.
To take a short break, I parked my car at a rest area where a More >

Driving on a perfectly unknwon road in the night, especially in a foreign country, is surely stressful task, even though a helpful GPS navigation is equipped in a car. Yes, I did that last night, so I slept early and deeply.

As soon as I got my rent-a-car from the Nagasaki airport, I drove to Unzen(雲仙) located about 1 hour and half away by car. Since it was 6 p.m. already, I hurried up a bit, not to drive on perfectly unknown road in night-time. But the sun went down earlier than I thought.

NGS – Nagasaki Airport was small and cute; in Japanese way of talking, “kawai(lovely cute)”. But, similar with other big-time airports in Japan, for instance, KIX – Kansai Airport near Osaka and NGO – Chubu Centrair International Airport near Nagoya, it was created on a offshore island.

Traditional Japanese diner called Gaiseki-ryori(會席料理) after onsen bathing in Unzen(雲仙) is just unforgettable.
I needed some fresh air. It was one summer day when its everyday atmosphere was getting hotter and wetter, making me helpless. I felt like a polar bear at a zoo in Equatorial Guinea. This symptom means, “It’s time to go out More >
