Merry Christmas 2011!
Seems that we’re not going to have a white Christmas this year (which is fine to me actually :P) But we did have some frosty mornings ^^;

Airi Dollfie Dream
So by now some of you probably had guessed, we brought a new girl home when we were in Japan… ^^; It wasn’t intentional, trust me ^^;;;
We were staying in Nakano and was dangerously close to Nakano Broadway ^^;
Aki at Shinjuku Koen
Supplies! (25 Nov 2011)
Moar photos taken in Japan, the strange thing is there’s always a paradox feeling with regards to our favorite place – Japan, I thought I took a lot of photos, bought a lot of things, yet when I look back it just doesn’t feel enough?!
Taiga at Showa Kinen Koen
Sorry for a delay in updates, have some work I needed to catch up and still battling jet lag and a slight sickness.
Here are photos taken on a Saturday (26 Nov 2011) when we hung out with some friends who kindly took us to Showa Kinen Koen at our last minute suggestion ^^;
Taiga in Osaka
Sorry for taking a while, this time it felt that jet lag got better of me when I return, and the cold winter weather in Canada did not help ^^;
During some point in time of the trip, I felt guilty neglecting Taiga so I re-dressed her and took her out when we went to Osaka! (21 Nov 2011)^o^ It was my husband’s first time in Osaka and my 2nd time in many many years ^^; But the time when I visited Osaka, it was more like a passing thru type visit so it was good to take our time to a certain extent and explore the area :)
NagatoPyon in Japan
Cannot believe I’m already back in Canada… ^^;
Still have a lot of photos to post, but I should post about my meet (24 Nov 2011) with the lovely NagatoPyon and her partner who’s currently studying in Japan!
The first night we hung out, she brought her kawaii Yumi chan! ^o^ Thank you Sas-chan for kindly asking the volks shop attendant about taking a quick photo in their display booth :3 It was probably our record speed booth photo so far XD (maybe under 5 minutes?!) Also thanks for taking us to the yummy pizza place, must go back again in future when we’re in Japan!
Dollfie Dream comrades!
Had a very intense Sunday (27 Nov 2011), after very little sleep on the night before ^^; was probably running on sheer adrenaline :P
Thank you Haku1923 for meeting up at short notice, sorry I felt like I crashed your DD display table ^o^;> It was super awesome seeing Sora and Aura in person, my photos does not do them justice… please ask Sorahomu chan not to shoot me… XD;;
Very very happy to meet a few blythe friends whom I haven’t seen in a long time (thank you Matin, Lisa and Natsuko for coming to meet me <3!!!) After having a late lunch with a couple blythe friends, I rushed off to join my husband who was checking out Danny’s filming of Culture Japan, which unfortunately I missed most part of >_<; To see more please check out Danny choo’s blog post and NagatoPyon’s figure.fm post! :D we were lucky to catch Teddy again, and other than Danny’s lovely waifu Jay, I met for the first time Syaoran and his sweet girlfriend Mi-chan, and also NagatoPyon’s kind partner, AND not forgetting the gadget guy Steve Nagata ^o^!!!!
Rest stop
Our room had a magnificent view! We checked in in late afternoon and was welcome by a beautiful sunset~!
Really lucked out on this!

Kinkaku ji
We went to Kinkaku-ji in Kyoto on a public holiday in Japan (23 Nov 2011)… Terrible idea! Not only there’s a LOT of tourists, there’s a LOT of locals visiting too ^o^; It was “people mountain people sea” – a direct translation of a chinese saying… :P
Husband said it felt like there’s 10,000 people in the park with us >_< a lot of the pathways are almost always full of people, it was stressful, ^^; I think I was so stressed I couldn’t smile when I was in pix :P
