Shinjuku Park Hotel Review

When we chose this hotel, first thing we looked up is location, and breakfirst. Tokyo keeps well organized subway system. And Shinjuku is the center of subway system with various fashion street and governement buildings. But it was hard to get family room in Japan. May no rooms be available in Japan for family except Walt Disney. So, we decided to reserve two rooms.








Rooms are very clean but we smelled smoke(you must know Japan still allow smoking in the building). Since we have children, I asked manager to change rooms. He suggested clean the rooms instead due to no rooms available. After few hours when we backed, we could not smell smoke. They did well job (I don't know how they clean the room). But later, we can still smell smoke in the whole floor.










Everything in the room is very clean and available. There is hot and cold water in the corner of floor (you can have quick noddle in the room). You can controll all the light in the center small box.









Bath room is small but make you feel great (every detail thought & treatment were there).




































I thouht it was computer monitor but it was TV.























Location of hotel is perfect. There is a city bus station nearby (5-10 minutes from hotel)- we used this station for Disney visit. And Subway station is located nearby 10 minutes as well.
Breakfirst was so great. We still have same breakfirst after back from Japan.
I still wish this hotel may have family room and no smoking in the building. Everything was perfect. Price, Location, Quality, Convenient.. I love this hotel.

John G. Shedd Aquarium at Chicago

Weather was so cold outside and we lost way of out from in the middle of Chicago city. We just drove car as traffic light lead us and then suddenly we came to this place. It was quite interesting visiting Aquarium after grow up this age. There was special event about sea hourse. As we know , the sea horse is a very small marine animal. But they are endangered species from the hunting by Chinese. Chinese poeple treat this sea horse as very precious medicinal stuffs and started buying all over the world. Now it became extint specious. There were many kinds of tiny sea horses. We should not forget the preservation of our wildlife include sealife.









































































































































































































































































































Sky above Michigan


I took the picture on the way of Japan to Detroit. Couldn't stand in front of beautiful sky...
Clouds like cotton wool. It's like God made sky line from spinning thread out of cotton.
I believe that flight made biggest history of human life. Flying through the air makes mankind see the earth from the high above. What's the feeling like God from the universe to see tiny human lives. It is clear that the earth hold everything under the sky. We should be humble to Creator.
































Korea biggest Green Tea Farm


Many people thought that green tea is originated from China and there will be biggest green tea farm in China as well. But in Korea, Green tea keeps long historical story. Specially Korea King family owned their own green tea farm and Boseong was the one place to provide green tea to the king.

Many years from Chosun dynasty and Japanese imperialism period and even Korean War, Green tea fram has been keep their place and so on.

If you have a chance to visit, this is the place that I would like to recommend if you are tea mania.

It located very south of korea peninsular and it will take 5 hours from Seoul by car. You can even see Green tea leafs during winter time frame. But it would be better to visit here Spring or Autumn. Lovely place.
