|  | There was nothing much on our last day in Japan. Our nephew asked us to bring some nice 'bento' home so Junko's dad and Shigeko took us to Ginza to find which one we could bring back to Thailand. Most bento were fresh and expired on the same day but we found what we could buy finally.
After the mission, Junko's dad and Shigeko took us to Tokyo Tower to take some photos, then took us to the limousine bus terminal to transfer to the airport.
This trip was fabulous. Hope I'll have a chance to visit Japan again. And thanks the Yoshiokas for their wonderful hospitalities. :)))

| | On the second day in Hakone, we didn't go to any specific place - just wandered around with many transportations. We began with a local bus, then a cruise, a ropeway, a cablecar and a train. Finally we took a shinkansen back to the Tokyo station where Junko's dad and her sister, Shigeko, waited to take us home.

| | On Oct28th, my sister and I went to Hokone by shinkansen (Japanese bullet train) and visited the Museum of Saint-Exupéry and the Little Prince. This museum was lovely. You can see it's website here http://www.tbs.co.jp/l-prince/en/

| | On Oct26th, the trip with Toyota finished and my own trip began. My sister, Kot, arrived the hotel around 10am but we had to wait for my friend, Hiroko, so we looked around near the hotel while waiting. Then Hiroko came and took us to Asakusa Kannon Temple but it was raining so I could take not many photos. Later we went to meet another friend, Junko, and had dinner together. After that, Junko's dad came and took us to the hotel to pick up our luggages. We stayed with Junko's family for 3 nights.
The next day, we wanted to see the big Buddha statue at Kamakura but it rained a lot because of typhoon so we changed to visit the National Museum of Nature and Science in Ueno in stead. Before the visit, Junko's dad took us to a sushi restaurant.
In the evening, Junko's family took us to a local restaurant near their house. I can't remember the food name but it was yummy. :P

| | On Oct25th, we had free time for a few hours in the afternoon but I didn't know where to go so I asked another journalist to see the hotel's garden. |
| | I visited the motor show 2 days. There were lots of nice and cute cars. |
| | I got an assignment to visit The 40th Tokyo Motor Show with Toyota Motor on 22-26 October along with other Thai journalists. There were 48 of us including Toyota Thailand staff. We departed at nearly midnight and arrived the Narita Airport in the morning. Then Toyota staff took us to the Imperial Palace Garden for sightseeing and Akihabara for shopping but I didn't buy anything. We stayed at the New Otani Hotel and I got a room with a garden view. :) |
