Duckbill2012/11/04 19:58:17

I have never seen the following type of Shinkansen (bullet train) before.
E514-6
This photo was taken at Sendai station yesterday. According to the characters painted on the side of its body (E514-6), this train seems to be the E5 series Shinkansen that has been put into Tohoku Shinkansen.

It's just like a duckbill :-).

End of the foliage season2012/11/13 23:42:42

I went to Naruko in Miyagi prefecture and Chokai plateau in Akita prefecture last weekend.

Unfortunately, the foliage season seemed to be almost over. So the color saturation, especially red and yellow color, is not enough in the photos below.

I should have gone there much earlier ...

Singapore sling2012/11/24 16:14:00

It was cold and rainy today, so I've been staying at home all day long.

A friend of mine who had gone to Singapore last month gave me nice souvenirs: a mini-bottle of Singapore sling with Raffles Hotel brand and a shot glass.

The bar in Raffles Hotel is famous for the birthplace of Singapore sling.

I was pleased with these souvenirs. I don't usually drink, though;-)
