Little vacation


We had a nice three day weekend so instead of just going into the city and shopping me and Rebecca went to Niijima Island ^_^
A three day camping trip on a nice little island off of Tokyo bay...with a 8 hr ferry ride sleeping on a deck.-_-
It was nice, people having little picnic parties, i brought vodka, some one else had juice, some had snacks. We meet some nice Japanese people on this trip who were really kind and helpful throughout the whole trip.

We played on the beach, got sunburned. Went snorkeling(another FIRST) the next day, i burnt my back. oh good burning times ^^ the onsen was beautiful and the water felt great both at the beach and in the onsen. We were able to meet a lot of great people from around the world (the group that we went on the trip with is called "Tokyo Gaijins") but don't know if we'll ever see them again.

I had fun during the trip but at the same time i didn't enjoy the whole experience.
I was eaten alive by mosquito, they just loved me. We had a cramp small tent, my ass was hurting from the bike we had to ride around in for the three days ( i haven't ridden a bike for like more than 5 yrs). My bag was heavy and had to put the straps on my burnt shoulders which made them a nice raw skin color.
other than that i had fun and would luv to go snorkeling again and hiking....just stay in a cabin or even hotel next time.
Well here's some pics of the island.

It looks so pretty there. Snorkling scares me though.
