Sorry for the lack of update recently. Just got back from ChengDu and flew straight to Japan the next day so my brains still trying to set in that I’m in Japan at the moment. We landed in Tokyo on Saturday/Sunday midnight and stayed the night at one of the hotel that was close to Haneda and on Sunday morning we collected our JR pass from the JR station and headed straight down to Nagoya for lunch.
JR pass allows you to travel all around Japan on the JR line which is extremely convenient if you are planning to go around Japan. The seats are really comfortable and the trains are very, VERY punctual so DO NOT be late if you are planning to catch it!
最近真的觉得时间特别不够用啊，刚刚才从成都回来不过一日就飞到了日本，抵达日本的时候都将近半夜了，所以就住了在Haneda附近的一个酒店，第二天就到JR 地铁站拿了我们的JR pass就出发了。觉得有个JR pass 很方便啊，会建议不会喜欢在一个地方呆很久的人，买了一个JR pass 就可以日本到趴趴走走了。
其实坐火车还挺舒服的，可是要注意哦，火车出发时间非常准时，千万不可以迟到～

Nagoya is known for their unagi don so we snuck in a quick visit in Nagoya before heading to Gero. Because it was all on the JR line, and we got ourselves a JR pass, the transport fee was all included in our pass itself. By the time we got to Nagoya it was raining heavily so instead of going to the restaurant we wanted to, we had lunch at the shopping mall right above the Nagoya JR eki station. Might not have been the best around town but IT WAS GOOOOOOOOD food man!
本来预计要到名古屋出名的鳗鱼饭店吃鳗鱼饭的，可是天不作美，下起了倾盆大雨，所以我们就将就在火车站楼上的鳗鱼饭店吃了。虽然说不是我们预期想吃的店，可是食物确实特别特别的好吃。
Then we headed off to Gero. Gero(下呂) is famous for their onsens, which is one of the much loved activities by locals。
医好肚子后，我们就要去到了下呂咯，下呂最出名的就是他们的温泉，所以这个活动你绝对不能错过哦。

Toured around the area a little，went into their convenient store, and purchased this.If you are a dairy person, you’ve gotta try their milk!
休息后，就到旅店附近逛逛了，结果到了附近的便利商店买了点东西。来到日本不试试喝它们的牛奶就真的太对不起自己了
