The summer after the drawing class I was in Italy for a science conference and I thought I'd like to see the Sistine Chapel. I got there very early in the morning, bought my ticket before anybody else, and ran
up the stairs as soon as the place opened. I therefore had the unusual pleasure of looking at the whole chapel for a moment, in silent awe, before anybody else came in.~"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!"/Richard P. Feynman
I was in
Hokkaido with my family earlier this month, and had the chance to visit the hot springs at Noboribetsu. One popular location is called
Hell's Valley (Jikokudani Valley) The tour group arrived at the place in the afternoon and it was quite crowded. We were lucky to be staying at a hotel a few hundred metres away and the next morning I decided to do what Feynman did and went back at 4am (the sun rose at 3am) to have the whole place to myself.
400 pictures here; some good, others not so good...
