第一次搭全日空國際線，不愧是服務五星級的航空公司；然後我有一個朋友的妹妹想考空服員，我回來就跟她說別報全日空，一定很硬… This was my first time flying with ANA international flights, and totally agreed its 5-star rating. Then after coming back, I told one of my friends’ sister who wanted to be a CA “Don’t apply ANA; must be a very tough work…”

一向相信投宿新旅館能得到較佳體驗。一來享受最新硬體，二來旅館還在需要累積好評的階段，對客人自然照顧有加。但這次真的太極端，remm東京京橋，開幕第一天我就上門！ I always believe that a new-opened hotel offers you better staying experience. Firstly, you have the latest facilities. Secondly, the hotel needs to accumulate positive reviews, so must take care you as possible as they can. But it was so amazing that I stayed in a hotel on the first day of open!

從羽田機場到橫濱和到東京市區距離一樣，櫻花盛開的時間也相同，一樣美，人潮卻比東京少多了。 The distance to Yokohama and Tokyo downtown from Haneda Airport is nearly the same. So are the cherry blossom season and beautifulness. But much less crowded.

我對日式庭園向來不太有興趣，賞櫻和紅葉的季節例外。 I am not quite interested in Japanese gardens, except the seasons of cherry blossoms and maple leaves.

到輕井澤玩的人應該都不會錯過Prince Shopping Plaza(王子購物廣場)，也有人直接叫它輕井澤outlet。雖然上次我就來過了，這次還是進來看看(其實是看好幾回，它很大，一次逛一部分)。 JR輕井澤站下樓梯即到，超方便。

仗著自己是第二次到輕井澤，訂好旅館就什麼功課也沒再做。當天早上出門時本打算到中輕井澤的星野地區走走，實際上竟一整個大轉彎。自以為｢熟門熟路｣，從旅館走到JR輕井澤駅南口，打算 搭星野的免費接駁車 ，才知道早就停駛，現在只接送至信濃鐵道的中輕井沢駅。不知為何，我沒有立刻去搭信濃鐵道，而是現場研究起從JR輕井澤駅發車的公車路線。 在開往草津溫泉的站牌端詳一會，親切的司機小哥主動下車問需不需要幫忙，三分鐘後出發，沒多想便上了車泡溫泉去…不是啦，是這班車到終點站草津溫泉之前，會經過舊三笠飯店、白絲瀑布(白糸の滝)，我沒租汽車也沒租腳踏車，能坐車到這些走路走不到的景點，再好不過。

十月中，拍到如此紅黃錯落的雲場池，已經很幸運。 So lucky that I could take such red and yellow colored Kumoba Pond in mid-October.

想要從東京到小江戶川越，可搭JR川越線或東武東上線至川越駅，或西武新宿線至本川越。我選擇後者，因為它離老街(一番街)比較近，而且川越王子大飯店就在車站旁。下車順著指標就能到大門。 You can take either JR Kawagoe Line/Tobu Tojo Line to Kawagoe Station or Seibu Railway to HonKawagoe if you want to visit Kawagoe, The Little Edo, from Tokyo. I chose the latter because of the distance to Ichiban Street. In addition, Kawagoe Prince Hotel is beside the station. Follow the direction in the station will easily find the hotel.
