Arrived in Okayama, Japan but ran off to Kurashiki after dumping my things at the ryokan - thanks to the local train which has frequent runs. Kurashiki is a very pretty "market town" with lots of shops congregating around the "canal". Lots of museums and artists dotting around the center - drawing or doing something "art-like". A sight and site for camera buffs :-)

    hi Tochie...thank goodness ok naman...

    I guess Takayama and Kanazawa are prone to that kind of weather but from Nagoya yesterday to here it was sunny....though still cold sometimes.

    Its only when I puff up stairs or run to the train platform or station that I really perspire even if its cold weather...siguro sanayan dito..e may naka shorts pa nga w/ stockings lang...

    Yes, I suppose so. Pero it could take while para ma-acclimatize tayo.

    when I went to NY, sabi ng friend ko (kc di ako nakabalot, while sila balot na balot, at naiinitan pa ako ha)...di pa daw ako na acclimatize kaya di giniginaw...baligtad yata no?

    depende nga siguro...I actually really sweated a lot and was looking askance at the coat I had...

    I was only grateful for it in Takayama..where w/ my ironical life, iniwan ko inner lining nya sa ryokan habang umikot ako...

    most of the time, w/ all my walking and running around w/ my luggage, medyo ok naman w/ only the thin outer layer...though I guess its really when the wind blows na don ka mag-shiver...

    I recommend a good windbreaker - light, manipis, but it ought to keep the cold out w/out all the bulk...
