It seems like i only blog all the important events.. haha..once a month.. well, this month..i went to JAPAN! woah!~ damn nice loh.. well, shall post up some pictures... pictures speak louder than text! haha~ We were waiting for a cab... so long.. it's like only 4am, but we have to check in at 5am..flight is at 7am.. played mahjong whole night.. til 3am..then wash up...and off to the airport! our cab fare was like $20 over bucks! including the midnight charges of course! See my pink luggage?! well, wondering why we're dressed rather formally? haha.. coz we're going on the business class! dress code loh..
United Airlines! practically the whole business class are ang mohs! haha.. and everyone has a labtop! I sat beside this angmoh, who lives in california..going for japan for business trip.. i actually offered him sour plum..haha.. i told him it was for my motion sickness(in case), and he claims that he likes sour stuff..so.... during the long flight of 7 hours, dar and i were like..sleeping, eating, watching movies...all the other businessmen were using labtop, reading books, newspapers..haha.. so paiseh.. they seemed to be making full use of their time, and we're like...hmm... anyway, i didn't take any pictures at Changi Airport..too sleepy...besides, what's there to take anyway!
Ta da! Reached Narita Airport! Now waiting for a shuttle bus to pick us up, and fetch us to Narita Excel Hotel Tokyu. It's about 20 mins away from Narita Airport..very convenient hotel.. Japan is 1 hour ahead of Singapore.. Was on the phone, few missed calls when i switched off my hp (on the plane). I love the weather! when i stepped out of the airport, i was like...woah! cooling.. it was 19 degrees.. so cool! and..not humid..so fresh! nah..how to compare it with singapore's air? tsk tsk.. now i know why japanese girls have such flawless complexion!
This was what i saw at the hotel's entrance.. Umbrella stand with lock! there's a key to every lock..so you just have to lock your umbrella there, remove the keys.. and no one will steal your umbrella..it's a free service! oh man.. perfect! if this were to be done in singapore, all the keys and locks will be stolen, otherwise..vandalised... wat a babaric country.. sigh..
Waiting to check in.. dunno why this statue is in the middle of the lobby..haha.. a lady rowing boat...hmm....we stayed on 3rd floor..our room has a washlet! haha... a washlet is a toilet that has the "wash butt" function! Anyway, nothing much on the first day..reached the hotel at 5pm.. took a 150 bus, which cost us 150 yen($2) to AEON shopping centre..bought some food..shop around, then went back to hotel.. to sleep..coz tmr is a long day....
SHOCKED! I actually see sunlight at 3am! It'll be pitch black in Singapore, but in Japan, 3am and the sun's up! of course, sun sets earlier too..like 6pm..it's dark already.. anyway, we woke up at 6am..and we thot we overslept, coz the sun's shining so brightly! we woke 6am coz we need to leave the hotel at 7am, in order to reach the airport at 730am, in order to catch the 8:10 bus to DisneyLand! well..in Japan, PUNCTUALITY is NO.1 ! if the transport comes at 8:10, means 8:10...if you come at 8:11, too bad.. and i mean the trains, the buses...every means of transport! By the way, Japanese smoke at a certain area! See?! they stand there and smoke.. in singapore? smokers are everywhere.. you dun see a smoker standing beside a dustbin to smoke right? Japanese do!
We're waiting for Bus 14.. Each bus has a bus stop, and an attendant! this bus ride costs us 2400 Yen ($36)! we have to buy the ticket before hand.. it's a 1 hour ride.. means, we'll reach DisneyLand is 910am!
Took photo on the bus.. was looking out the window most of the time.. we actualy saw a lady wearing kimono,wanted to take a picture of her, but the bus is moving too fast.. and the houses in Japan look exactly like my Sylvanian doll house! well, 'Sylvanian Families' is a Japanese product, of course they'll look similar!...and we finally fell asleep.. long journey..HEY! we woke up very very early k! by the way, it's cold! but sunny...
We reached at 9:10 exactly! (see what i mean by PUNCTUALITY!) ..It opens at 10:00, and there's a big crowd already...it's a weekday my goodness! it's not even their school holiday.. so crowded! Darling went to queue for tickets, and I queued at the entrance.. we bought a 2-day pass, which costs at 9800 yen ($130) EACH! We're visiting DisneyLand today, and DisneySea tmr..we learned that only Tokyo has DisneySea! Can't be found in any other parts of the world!
This is the Main Entrance..There's a "Find Stitch" event going on today.. Stitch is hidden somewhere in DisneyLand, and we're supposed to find it..great.. DisneyLand is so damn big, can't even finish exploring in one day..how to find a tiny Stitch? anyway, we just went along...if we're able to find it, good...if not, fine! :)
