Tokyo DisneySea is themed around ocean adventures, with beautifully designed areas full of exotic charm. The rides and amazing shows are truly impressive. It’s lively and fun during the day, while the lights and fireworks at night make it feel even more magical. Definitely a theme park worth visiting.

Yukari by Bankaku Sohonpo
Yukari is a cracker made with shrimp paste which is believed to bring good luck in Japan. Yukari was once presented to Tokugawa Mitsutomo in the Owari domain during the Edo Period and carries on its history and excellence. Using 7 natural shrimps for each cracker, it is carefully roasted in a unique double baking method consistent with the Edo Period.
I love buying local specialty souvenirs when I come to Japan, and this time I tried the shrimp crackers from Bankaku Sohonpo. They were a pleasant surprise! The crackers are thin and crispy, and you can taste the distinct shrimp flavor from the first bite. They're savory and so addictive that it's hard to stop eating them. Although they look simple, they're packed with fresh seafood flavor and go well with either tea or coffee. No wonder they're one of Japan's classic souvenirs. They're great for enjoying yourself or taking home as gifts!

Hakone-Yumoto Onsen Hot Spring Village
Hakone-Yumoto Onsen Hot Spring Village is known as one of the seven hot springs in Hakone and the largest hot spring resort in Hakone.
Taking the mountain railway to Hakone-Yumoto Onsen is such a relaxing scenic journey. The train slowly winds through the mountains and forests, with lush greenery and mountain views filling the windows. You can occasionally see the valley too, making it hard to look away from the scenery outside.
After arriving at Hakone-Yumoto, the atmosphere of the hot spring town immediately puts you at ease. Strolling along the streets, you'll find lots of unique shops and food on both sides. Browsing and eating along the way lets you soak up the distinct charm of a Japanese hot spring town.

Hida Kotte-ushi
Located in the historical district of Hida Takayama, the Kotte-ushi specializes in nigiri-sushi topped with Hida beef for takeout only. Eating Hida beef at a reasonable price while strolling about the traditional town of Hida Takayama has become a very popular activity, resulting in long lines of visitors wishing to try this gourmet street food.
Of course, you can't miss the famous Hida beef nigiri sushi when you're in Hida! It looked so tempting as soon as I got it, with beautiful, even marbling. The beef was incredibly tender and practically melted in my mouth without much chewing. Paired with soy sauce and rice, it was full of flavor.
What I liked most was the rich, sweet flavor of the beef fat. It was flavorful without being too greasy, and each piece was just the right size for one bite. You could really taste how delicious Hida beef is.
