9 Jul 2008 - 御殿場

9.7.2008 06:30 Landing at Haneda
We rented a cell phone and transferred to Terminal 1 to collect our car but we needed to wait until 9:00 for counter open.

After we called, a lady came in 15 minutes to drive us to the shop.  I relied on Carol and May san to talk to the staff and settle all the documents and procedures.

The first thing we need to do is to learn how to use the GPS and follow its instruction.  However, we still missed some turns and needed to take a longer drive-back 行大運。

Our car - Mazda 2

9.7.2008 10:30 御殿場 Gotemba
It took us around one hour driving to Gotemba.  We made it through 東名高速公路。

First stop, we went for shopping.  It's very pleasure to have a leisure walk around different shops.  I've brought some casual wear for use in coming few days, especially a pair of North Face trousers for climbing up Mt. Fuji.

You can see that it's cloudy with scattered shower.

Lunch
You just had a simple lunch at the food court - Japanese cury and ramien.

After leaving the Premium Outlet, we felt that we could have some more food and we visited a famous soba shop 金太郎手打蕎麥麵。

因為已過了午飯時間，整間食肆只剩下我們慢慢嘆。

It's the first time we were served with the soup that boiled the soba.  They said that the soup was good for our health.　我們連煮麵的水都飲埋，很滿足地離開。
