The other week my girlfriend and I had a week off so we decided to head somewhere. We at first thought it’d be a good idea go to Hokkaido because it’s apparently quite nice there in the summertime but seeing as none of us had done much planning we ended settling for going to Sendai to stay with our friends family for a couple of days.
The trip up there was kinda interesting.We bought one of those JR train tickets that lets you go anywhere.It was a 9 hour trip with about for4 transfers on the way. Every time the train would pull up to a station where we needed to transfer there would be a insane dash to the next train with people scrambling to get a seat for the next leg of the trip. I ended up standing most of the way being unaware of this wacky occurrence at the time.
When we finally got to Sendai we had a lovely ferry ride to a secluded island to visit our friend’s grandmothers house. It was really nice as had a real wafu (old school Japanese) theme to the place. We let off fireworks in the evening and had breakfast on the beach the next morning.
