It’s time for The Parks for the Thirty-Fourth – Tokyo Drift to jump onboard another Shinkansen, taking me to Nagoya to visit a home grown Japanese theme park for the first time – Nagashima Spa Land! It’s home to a roller coaster that became a bucket list item for the trip as soon as I started looking into what roller coasters Japan had to offer: Hakugei, a woodie-steel hybrid coaster from Rocky Mountain Construction. And since I was there, I got to experience other incredible coasters such as Steel Dragon 2000, flying roller coaster Acrobat & Schwarzkopf classic Looping Star and more!

After spending my day in Nagahsima Spa Land I also got to to spend part of my evening in Nagoya itself, indulging in some gachapon action and getting hands on with the camera I had my eyes on – the Sony Alpha 7C II. And we all know how that went.
