My holiday and why I hate Microsoft

Well, we finished up another long holiday, hopefully rested and refreshed. I was busy going here and there.
We took Tyler to Safari Park in Gotenba. That was pretty interesting and we saw many different animals there.
We also went shopping at Costco in Yokohama and bought some cheap goods. I really like their easy-bake bread!
After that we went to Hakkejima to see the fish museum and ride some of the attractions. There weren't many people, so we didn't feel too crowded there. Tyler really liked watching the penguins.
My family and my mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law all went to Kanaya Onsen, in Shimoda. They have a beautiful bath and we could eat some good sashimi there. We were lucky that the busy holiday traffic was moving in opposite directions.
The rest of the holiday I was in Gifu with my wife's family. We had a chance to relax, drink beer, read, and watch some DVD's. It was relaxing.
So now the holiday's over, and it's back to work. I hope we can all make it through this week for the weekend!
Oh, and I hate Microsoft. After installing the "critical updates" yesterday on my home PC, it crashed and now I have to reformat my hard disk and re-install Windows. Curse them!

Yes, it is expensive to stay. If you go during a weekday on a non-holiday it is cheaper. It is a nice place and they do have a shared bath. They also have nice private, "family" baths that you can reserve as well.
You could always just go for the bath and not stay - I think that's about 1000yen.
