“If I had $1000” Writing Contest

A blog about what is wil do with 1000 dollars... just like my last trip to Japan, I booked a ticket to Tokio a week in advance, and now i am writhing a blog on the deadline :p

I love to work under pressure.

But what wil i do with 1000 dollars, again i would buy a ticket to Tokio (600) euro's and than for 250 euro's i wil get myself a weeks JR railway pass (Japanese Rail) That probable would make a 1000 dollars right?

That JR pass wil get you trough the whole country by bullet train. One week of unlimited train rides! You can by them also for two ore three weeks! You need to book them in advance!

The reason that I want to go back is because I discovered a group of artists called TeamLab. They make interactive digital art and I saw 2 of the exhibitions they have in Tokio, the first was teamLab Borderless and the second one was teamLab Planets TOKYO. Maybe you have never heard of them but the first picture will probably looks familiar to you!

Yes it felt like i was some kind of influence babe but i needed to take this picture.
Trough out Japan this collectief has got many more exhibitions like this.

My 1000 dollar trip wil go to the western part of Japan, first stop wil be Nagasaki atomic bomb museum. I Definitely want to see the one thing we all don't want to see happen again.

This post of Nagasaki made by Miroslav wil take you there.

The second thing I would like to visit there is theme park Huis Ten Bosch That is a theme park of the Netherlands :D Yes, every thing over there is the Netherlands, from tulips to wind mills and wooden shoes. they even copied the most iconic Dutch buildings like churches and castles. Probably very touristic but as a toerist from the Netherlands i think i need to go here :p @seanytan wrote a blog in different parts about it.

And then i am going to another beautiful TeamLab exhibition at the city of Fucuoka teamLab Forest Fukuoka I have some pictures i took at the Tokio exhibition that wil give you an idea why i want to go there.

The water falling here is interactive, if you walk across or sit in it, it will automatically float around you. The projectors ar that sophisticated the they can spot you end rearrange the projected computer animated images live so it wil flow around you. Its hard to imagine what i am telling here but you really have to experience it.

They have these LED installations which you can choose a program by downloading an app, swipe the program to the installation and it wil play the chosen program in these LED-strips. There are mirrors all around you. You even walk over those mirrors. And the effect of that is shown here in this picture. And for the ladies who wear skirts, they have pants for you at the entrance witch you can borrow. That prevents the perverts from peeping :p

So probably i spent all of the 1000 dollars by now and now i need a place to sleep at! So if you live close to there please contact me :p

Here some more pictures i took in Tokio exhibitions.
