Spa Hotels Or Onsen

One of the many things i remembered while in Japan for work is the many weekends, we get invited by our co-workers for a weekend in an Onsen. The Shirahone Onsen is one that I remembered well because of its unique white looking water..  that comes from the high amount of caladium and magnesium.  Located in the higher up of the town about 2.5 hrs away from Tokyo by train, this Onsen is so unique with such a huge open space hot spring, they definitely have no need for spring plungers here.  For those who are not aware of this.. hot springs are known to be very good for health, therefore, the japanese flock to an Onsen whenever time permits.

Motor Showroom In Japan

When I was in Tokyo, Japan; a co-worker had insisted that I go test drive some cars.  I wasn’t really interested but little did I know the showroom that I went to in Odaiba .. was huge and truly, I was in awe.  They had so many models.. it was mind boggling.  I did get to test drive the latest sport car there.  I heard that you can get exclusive auto parts from this show room too.
