Wanderland 2014

Last year's Wanderland was so much fun. I could still remember how Neon Trees and Temper Traps nailed it, and I also enjoyed the other bands such as Tulle on Tulle and Avalanche City even if I wasn't much familiar of them. There weren't much attractions back then, but the experience was indeed great!

This year, the event grounds had a lot of interactive booths and attractions. However, there weren't much people, and the lineup wasn't as good as last year's. But since I got free tickets, I went there with my friends (a lot less friends than last year's). I was there basically for The Royal Concept and I was glad they didn't disappoint me. I enjoyed watching them perform live more than The Drums.

Just before The Drums, finished their set, we decided to leave the event grounds. We actually enjoyed the freebies more than the concert itself. So we got a couple of items and drinks from Globe, then photos and cute tattoos from River Island, and free Cornetto ice cream and Oishi snacks.

Ring of Fire: Solar Eclipse As Seen from Japan

Last Monday morning, I woke up at 7am to view the Annular Solar Eclipse, which happened for the first time in 25 years here in Japan. While viewing it happen from our veranda, we were also watching it on TV.

It's the best solar eclipse I've ever seen! The moon didn't cover the entire disc of the sun which made a "ring of fire" visible. The surroundings turned partially dark. From our place, in Suwa City, Nagano, the moon was slowly covering the sun from 7am to 7:30am. But from 7:30am to 7:35pm, the ring of fire was seen, and the moon quickly left the perfect ring shape as it went down to uncover. I felt so lucky to have seen it!

Since I wasn't equipped with perfect gadgets to capture the actual view, I just took a photo of what's being shown on TV. It's a one of a kind experience!:)
