How To Build A Home-made Ham Radio



's a few weeks ago, but not too long that I was the last time something have written. Therefore, today a new entry. It is just this afternoon, the sun is behind the part of my dorm to stand, what I see from my window, and is currently running on television advertising. I was a little been on the road, in Sapporo, to be exact. But more equal.

- In Japan, there are a habit that when someone sneezes, no one says anything. In Germany is so often a "health". Why not in Japan? Well, according to a Korean friend who said that prevails in South Korea the same habit, which even has a reason. And I do not think it is simply ignored in cheek. Rather, it is up to the following. If someone sneezes, is here thought that someone else has thought about the very person sneezing something bad, and that person sneezes just because of that. Therefore, no one seems to a sneezing person "health" or something similar to say. But I do not know more details.

- If you think that pigeons are resistant against people in Germany, the times should come to Chiba. Here, the pigeons fly away even if I'm going to cycle on them. Well, I had this not been going after, and I braked, but they just run away only slowly, and quite ...

- Okay, so I was in Hokkaido. Does he think I am leaving my current island and set off into the far north of Japan. That was the beginning February, shortly after my birthday. Of course, I've also done a lot of photos, but the views I have only once, and the passable photos will be uploaded sometime soon again.

- in Hokkaido I was, unfortunately, only four days, but there were four great days. I've flown with four friends, people, and on the first day we went to Noboribetsu. There are many hot springs and a valley called Jigokudani what Höllental says. There is also little smells like hell, thanks to the many sulfur. After some wandering, we are then in a natural hot spring and it is our little comfortable. Towards evening we will also be presented rond Sapporo, our primary goal. Late in the evening arrived at the hotel does not mean that man can not walk again for a cold beer outside. No sooner said than done.

- The next day we went towards Otaru, which is north in Hokkaido, the sea. Although I have only seen from the train, but still. What's in Otaru? Much to shop for souvenir collectors. For one music boxes and other glass. Lots of glass. Plates, cups, figurines, anything man can imagine in this way. And a bridge that is apparently quite famous, simply because as the water freezes and beautiful in the night lights. Well ....

- Once we were in Otaru, we went to dinner. The All-You-Can-Eat crab in a restaurant. Of which I have unfortunately no photos. But it was delicious. Was my first time But it's also a shit work, "peel" the individual parts. So much for Monday.

- On Tuesday we made then Sapporo uncertain. Sapporo is the largest city in Hokkaido. First, we were on a mountain on the outskirts of Sapporo, overlooking from where human quite well throughout Sapporo. Rauf is man with a cable car. There's a really great view from up there. The photos will soon be more visible. Can unfortunately not describe so well.

- Then we went in the face of snowfall and the growling stomach, the ramen eating. Ramen noodles are those which human mainly in Germany known as Instant Noodles. An invention of Japan, although the very noodles were actually once Chinese. Anyway, we went to a street where there are only shops that can make people eat just such noodles. Sapporo-kind, which are not available everywhere. It was quite tasty, but man must wait because, unfortunately, for a while, just because quite a lot of people want to eat in that famous street happy.

- After dinner we went to Japan's only beer museum, namely that of the Sapporo Beer Company. There is more than a century, inspired by German brewers, brewed beer. As a beer museum, I would now inscribedable not necessarily what we have seen there, but it has at least the history of the company issued. Old posters and posters, old beer brands and types. And there was a beer tasting, which was not in vain, as the entrance. After the museum we went right there near Essen. To drink, there was, of course, beer from Sapporo.

On the last day we finally went out with him, so we actually went to Sapporo. That would be the Yuki Matsuri, known worldwide as a snow festival. As will be issued from snow and ice figures from statues, and every year hundreds of thousands of people to Sapporo, only to see them. This year, that the 59th Festival Once held. There was real big, house-like Statues as well as small "only" car-like statues. Unfortunately, this can only describe quite badly, so soon on the photos.

- In the evening we went back gene Tokyo flown back quite exhausted and hoping to one's own bed. It was really great. I've seen a lot, and Hokkaido in the summer should also be quite pleasant. There's is not so cold and the snow also less likely to .....

much from me first. This type of entry also always takes an eternity, but I'll do so gladly, even if it is rare ....
