Ziggy loves who ....: Day 3 (Part 1)

If you noticed the title it has graduated to Parts and thats cos I have soooooo many pics to share ! Trust me, after the 4th day you will be sick of my face...hahaha ...

Like Ler says, Wenz is always doing her Kitty Face (I did ???!!)

Day 3 was wonderful cos it was the first time we seen snow and I could hardly contain my excitement when I peeped out of our hotel window early in the morning and noticed the snow covered cars.

Sand had to stop me from sticking my head out of the window just to catch some snow flakes.. hehehe.... We hurried through breakfast (ate tons of my favourite cherry tomatoes .. much more yummy in Japan) and scrambled out to the play !

So here I am trying to catch the flakes.. not very successful I must say except for the hair.

First stop of the day was to admire some Pottery and I thought this was a real good gift for guys. Now you see it, now you dun ! Once you pour steaming hot water to the cup on the left, the black cloth will slowly disappear and wala ... a sight to behold .hahaha

Dun be mistaken that we are brought to some sleazy Jap place okie. Just that this was more interesting than the typical plates and cups and bowls etc etc etc . It is right ??!

Next stop is Snack time at Kagahan! Yup, lots and lots of mochi, cakes, buns and Japanese sweet treats to whet our appetite and of cos make us part with our Yen. Of which they obviously succeeded!

After eating to our hearts' content, we make our way to Kenrokuen Garden in Kanazawa,acclaimed as one of Japan's 3 greatest garden and it was really beautiful. This garden is reputed to be breathe taking in all seasons and I can see why.

Though it was snowing heavily that day, we has lots fun posing and of cos acting like sua ku, oohing and aahing at the snow covered leaves and path ways and did silly stuff like gathering snow from the leaves and throwing it all around.Hahaha.... who cares right ?

SNOW !! Yeah yeah yeah !Trying to be artistic here but looks very 80s right with the far off glance pose ..hehehe

Sand will tell you that she risked getting frost bite when I insisted on writing her name on the bench.Yup, this was written with her bare fingers ..kekeke
It was interesting how every tree & shrub had strings attached to them as though someone above is performing a puppet show. Reason we found out was to protect the braches from collapsing under the weight of the snow. Cool yah. The Japanese has the knack of making the most mundane stuff looks beautiful.Another artist shots but this time round I thought this looked great. One of my favourite pics besides the rest on myself of cos ...hahahah

See my first Snow man ! So proud of myself ... I have the flair man ....

Another snow man (which I thought looked more like a snow cockroach !) but made by tour mates , Thomas & Marcus ... guys will always be guys ..

Barely into Day 3 and I tore my gloves ! Sulk sulk sulk ......

Dunno the name of this but it was great backdrop anyway. Noticed that the locals are carrying umbrellas to shelter from the snow fall and of cos only tourist like us will be so garang (and ill prepared) to walk without the brolly.hehehe

Finally lunch time ! And we had a beautifully presented Sakura meal. See the shape of the dishes.Pretty right ? But we were stilll hungry after that ..hahaha
