7 days and 6 nights of Jap!!! Part2 cont.
Day 3:I stopped keeping track of time here.
Went to the Owakudani boiling valley, which is a crater formed by the previous eruption of Mt Hakone, more than 3000 yrs ago. The place stinks. Literally.

Read this sign to find out why (above for those metally retarded people)
Anyway as we walked up the steps towards the "crater" the whole place became foggier, which was due to the steam.

Looks like a cemetary ^^

This is the "crater" which is actually an extremely hot spring. 80 degree celsius xD

These were these special black eggs that were cooked in the natural crater's water.

After peeling the black shell away, it looks just like a normal egg! And tastes the same too.
We ate kaisaki for lunch, which is essentially like a 7-10 course chinese dinner, but all the dishes are portioned up and served all at once.
There was a toilet outside the restaurant, and guess what I saw pasted over all the urinals. (see picture below)

the chinese version sounds cheem. the english...
according to my sis, the female toilet had a different sign. (pasted over the toilet bowls) It reads: Please remain seated for the entire performance. =) so hilarious!
We checked into this tiny hotel that was more like an inn for the night. The reason- there were hot springs. But i decided not to go because of the tour guide's explanation. First, you enter the shower area where you ARE REQUIRED to scrub yourself clean. Where everyone showering can also see you. Next you walk into the pool nude and soak. later wear the yukata (a japanese bathrobe that can be used as outside clothes) after drying off and go back to your room. underwear is not encouraged and the yukata is so...flimsy. and that is why i did not go =D
*2nd reason i wanted to play my gameboy and gameboys dont work underwater*
The tour guide was full of interesting stories and throughout the trip she told us more than 10 of them. Some of the more interesting ones were:
1) Her life story-she was born a singaporean,
2)This Korean singer/actor went to Japan in the late 1980s, everyone was crazy over him. When she visited her friend's friend's house, she saw an alarming sight. Posters, accessories, wallpaper etcetc about the Korean guy filled the house. And *gasp*! the woman had cut out her husband's head from their wedding photo and pasted the Korean guy there!!! And they were not divorced or anything. When asked if her husband minded her obsession, she replied:"he is also a fan!" =.=
P.S. my phone is a nokia 5800 Comes with Music
