Germany Trip!!! / Neuschwanstein Castle / ノイシュヴァンシュタイン城 / German Food

Finally finally I went to Germany to meet my lovely friend!!!!!
I met her 4 years ago when I did a summer language course. It's just amazing that we still keep in touch!!!!!!!
I was generally really happy to meet her again and mainly we spend a relaxed week together.
One evening, my friend's dad recommended us to go to Neuschwanstein Castle saying that all the Japanese tourists go there haha
Kindly her mom accepted to drive us there, here we go! Our amazing day trip has started :)

From Nuremberg, it took about 3 hours to get there. I was worried about the weather but fortunately when we got there, it was a beautiful day!

We had to queue for about 30min to get tickets.
Sometimes people cannot get one because they are sold out.

There is another castle close to Neuschwanstein castle called Hohenschwangau castle. A yellow castle. Well it's just sad that I don't quite remember whose residence this was and its history even though I joined a guided tour...
It seems as if a residence of King Ludwig II of Bavaria and it was built by his father, King Maximilian II. 

Its appearance looks a normal castle but inside was really nice. 

Unfortunately, taking photograph was not allowed inside.

And then, a famous princess castle,Neuschwanstein Castle!!

Because the castle was massive, taking pics with it was really difficult

But look at this pic. It was sooooo beautiful.

Seems like this castle is not completed. There are too many rooms.

Since I was a big fan of princess movie, I was really happy to see this castle.

Also, European architecture is just amazing!

On our way home, I tried German food.

Spätzle

Since I really like cheese, this pasta was really nice.

Flädlesuppe

This is soup with pancakes.

They fit each other.

When I felt a bit too cheesy, I had this soup and then pasta again.....hahaha

I've been super lazy so it was last year when I actually went there.

It was such a great relaxing time back then.......

*It's been a while since I graduated uni. My English becomes really poor....

Hope I'm explaining amazing memories at least understandable....

How to make a grass cup in Hokkaido/北海道でグラス工芸体験

I was looking back my photos and found nice photos in Hokkaido.

I like experiencing activities while traveling.

I don't think grass experience is only for Hokkaido but there is a place famous for grass, called Otaru.

From Sapporo, it takes about 30min to go there by train.

I went to a place close to the music box museum.

First of all, I chose a type of a cup and colours.

It is difficult to see but there are chemicals for colourings in the photo.
A teacher put them on melted grass.

Shaping

To make the bottom of a cup, hit to the ground 

Now it's time to blow!

It was difficult because I had to roll the stick at the same speed.

Thanks to the teacher, my grass cup came out really nice.

It took weeks before receiving the finished cup.

Well I don't know where this cup is to be honest....

Hopefully somewhere in my family house

anyways it was a great experience :)
