2019: The last best year

Tokyo 2019

 

















It's sad to see that the best has yet to come (besides going to Heaven) has, for the most part, come to an end. 2019 is the last time most of us had any relative freedom. Today's freedom is a joke. I will stop momentarily right here because I refuse to accept anything the government and the media is telling you these days. Their version of "in this together" differs to mine. So if you are already getting pissed off because I don't fit the world's narrative, just go some where else ok? Once again, everything I believe differs to the media narrative. Go and keep trusting your science (the political narrative). Still here? Ok, let's continue.

My first time to Tokyo, and sadly, it most likely will be my last. I got to see the last Tower records or one of the last in the world. Ate good food and ramen. Got to sightsee lots. Hachiko, Cherry Blossoms, Mt Fuji and more good food ensued here.

Kyoto, Osaka, and Hiroshima.



















Looks like fun, right? Lots of beautiful and historical places to see.

Nara and Osaka again.















Man, Japan was awesome!

Hong Kong


























Hong Kong: Bruce Lee, more good food, lots of places to sightsee. Was good to be back after a 24 yr hiatus away from HK.

Macau














More good food. Was nice to be here as well. Small island but nice to meet up with family and all. It was also nice to see a Chinese opera in play.

Bend, Oregon














The Last Blockbuster video in the entire world resides here! Smith Rock was an awesome place to hike and Crater Lake is a nice two hr drive from here. Totally worth it. I really loved Bend, Oregon!

San Diego


























San Diego did mark the end of my 2019 travels. I actually loved San Diego, I wished I could go back to find all the sculptures in Anza Borrego, another two hr drive from San Diego. It can still happen but in my dreams for now. 


Honorable mention

San Jose, Santa Cruz, and Las Vegas 2020.


























At one point, I said I never go back to Las Vegas ever again, and ironically, it was the last of my travels thus far. I take Las Vegas travels any day now over an illegal government lockdown they have imposed on the world. I sensed the government was going to do something drastic so I packed my bags and did this quick travel to San Jose, Santa Cruz, and my possibly last visit back to Vegas two weeks before this dreaded pre-martial law lockdown. It was nice and I thank Jesus for allowing me to do lots of these travels. It made me a happy person and I know I could do all these things through Christ. Looking back, most of my travels were me alone with the Lord and I do not regret it one bit. Thank you Jesus!

Hawaii Foodiecon 2025 and Yakiniku Like.

  Yakiniku Like Foodiecon was a enjoyable experience. Quite a bit of food vendors. It can be fairly expensive depending on the stuff you buy. Got to try Yakiniku Like over here in HNL. Brings me back to Sapporo which was actually only two months ago. Once again, good if you want a quick meal but if you hoping to be fulfilled, you may want to check into a Yakiniku buffet instead.

Osaka (Dotombori, Nara, Universal Studios Japan etc...) 100th post for this blog!

 Return to Osaka! It's been 4 years and it was nice to be back. My 100th post for this blog as well! Dotombori Back to Namba Oriental Hotel. Got a fairly decent room for 3. Also did a Pig cafe, The Pigs kept coming to me for sleep. They were probably tired all day. It was roughly 1830PM by then.  Nara   Even the Deers here wait for the bus. J/k. They always hungry so feed them the crackers you can purchase from the vendors on the streets. We didn't do temples this time. You can say we came here for a few hours to feed the deers and that was it.  Back to Dotombori    I've always wanted to visit the Capcom store. Sadly, the displays are the most impressive thing about the Osaka store. You get to play Street Fighter 6 on the big screen but everything in the store is pretty lackluster. The Capcom store and it's superhero neighbors are in the Parco store btw. Universal Studios Japan Pretty much came here for Super Nintendo World (ser...

Sapporo, Japan Feb 2025 (Pic Heavy)

  Early February trip to Japan. Feb 2 (Hawaii time) Flight from HNL to New Chitose  Food from ANA airlines. Was not a direct flight. One layover. Then a one hr train ride to Sapporo from New Chitose Airport. Landed around 1030PM at night.  (Each day categories pics start from bottom to top, sorry didn't feel like fixing this).  Feb 3 ( Sapporo) (Will be Japan dates from this moment forward) The famous Nikka sign and pretty much a midnight snack before bed. According to google, the restaurant is called Asahi Ga Nobori Susukino and its right across the Nikka sign and has a animatronic ramen display. It's a good restaurant that features a staple of Sapporo: Miso. One of the few places that is open to a much later time. I think 3AM?  Feb 4  Nijo Market  Yup. Hawaii. Nijo Market. Brunch pretty much at Ohiso . Gets packed quick so find a spot to catch your grub quickly. Lots of similar restaurants around here like Ohiso but like I sai...
