Background
Wait didn't this guy just get back from his last trip?
Surely he wouldn't have planned two trips to the same country less than 2 weeks apart?
As it turns out, this is exactly what I did. I'm still not sure why, neither is my bank account but there's no room for that sort of negativity when Japan is beckoning!!
As I alluded to in my first (and admittedly very recent) trip report (http://www.australianfrequentflyer....ip-photos/xmas-day-ana-then-skiing-72849.html), the moment I got home from my first Japan visit last year I started planning the next trip. As it turns out this is actually that next trip and the little soiree over New Years was a very fortunate bonus.
Hopefully I have have learnt a few lessons from that first TR and will be able to provide an improved write-up for this trip, which will include a little bit more than pictures of the scenery from where I am skiing
. I certainly enjoyed the process of creating the previous TR and found it very useful for forcing me to take more pictures than I normally would and taking notes on experiences to review and remember later. I hope this report is just as fun and can provide a little more insight to a destination that has so much to offer.
Itinerary
I know right, these flight paths are just so crazy!!
I won't spoil all the surprises about the itinerary this time but I will say we won't be visiting the same area as my last trip (as amazing as Hokkaido was), there is a very big first for me regarding the trip there and back (possibly a step up - or should I say forward
- from the last trip) and I will be covering a lot more distance on the ground instead of staying in the one spot for the whole time. Still not deviating away from the tourist hotspots too much but that just gives us a reason to keep going back .
Wouldn't have thought it possible but I think I'm even more excited for this trip than the last one!
Jaa mata!
