I was thinking about our trip today...about one year ago...wow time flies! Now that we're back into a full force Canadian winter, I can't imagine why I was so excited to see snow banks on the sides of the roads!!! However the sculptures were unforgettable....I was in Yorkville yesterday and they have a small ice sculpture display. My immediate response was "Ha, pathetic. You should see Sapporo!"
cool! Stayshi,
This is still one of my favourite blog entries in the whole travelblog site. Just one of those random everyday slice of life kind of things. Thanks for sharing your adventures with everyone!

Hello I am a big fan of yours. I wrote a comment it here before.
I have been reading your lovely blog here.
It seems that your bloginig is pause now .
You have already back to Canada? I miss you so much.
I hope you will keep writting here about domestic travels in Canada.
Thanks! No worries! Yeah next time your in Sydney drop us a line. Anyways hope you enjoyed your stay in Australia, you've been to more places here than I have!
PS: I went to Japan 2 years ago (including Hiroshima) and still miss it a lot! Thanks for helping me reminisce the days...
Thank you! Hi Joe! Thank you for your comments. I'm always delighted when anyone writes and tells me they've enjoyed reading my entries. I only wish I had more to share...visit Japan if you get the chance! And it is a shame about Sydney...I could've used a tour guide! Maybe next time? Take care and thanks again:)
Thanks! Hi Stayshi!
You don't know me but I just wanted to say thanks for sharing your Japan adventures with us fellow travelbloggers! I found your blog to be one of the more interesting ones!
Thanks!
PS: I'm from Sydney, such a shame, I could've shown you around...

I know, I'm bad... Hey Stacey, I'm only now just catching up on all of your blog entries...where does the time go! These pics are great, sounds like a really interesting performance. Plus the views from the top are stunning! :-)
That's so funny! Hey Stacey, great minds think alike! I did the same thing after I bought my new camera last December...I took pictures all along the route to work, that took me 30 minutes to walk each day. It's neat to see yours, thanks for sharing!
Holy Kigibolies! Your segue into the conical hat picture SLAYED me!!!
Very neat pics...what an experience, eh!? Can't help but think how different my life is. And houses on stilts above water!??! I guess they don't have backyards...and floating markets...holy kigibolies!!!
Wow Oh Stace, these pics look wonderful! They truly make me want to explore that area, and Vietnam was never a place that was particularly appealing to me prior to your description of your experience, and seeing these pictures.
Loved it.
Thank you for sharing!
... cute cute little boys.. nice hat stacey.. you know.. the class that i'm in has one of those hats.. they put it on the model of the human body (the kind where you can open up the body and look at the organs..).. i think they named him Barry! lol.. it looks better on you than Barry hehe
Looks like fun!! That ice cream sounds delicious! I want some! Your trip looks like great fun. I hope to get there someday! Hmmm, this comment is all about what I want. Sorry. I can't wait to hear about your trip, in full detail, complete with sound effects and pictures.
LOVE IT!!!! Stace....who cares about Kyoto...you got some great viewing. Wicked pics, lady! Sakura season is the bestest reason to be in J-land! LOVE IT!!!! It is just so amazing.

Join the adventures of Stayshi (a.k.a. Stacey), an uprooted Canadian, as she discovers the wonders of Japan! This picture was taken in Hiroshima Castle, where I was able to try on traditional armour. This is my "fierce" warrior look!... full info
