* A view of Mount Fuji from a highway toilet break stopover..sugoi ne.*tadaima!
yeah..too many things to cover on my trip liaoz.....how to post! haha..
okie.. it was overall fun! visited loads of places..imagine..we never stayed in the same hotel for more than 1 day lor. I took like 700 pics..wahhaha. of course I'm not developing all..just need a little more time to sift out.. hehe.
Apparently winter is late this year and so we get to see the autumn's scenery! yokatta ne~ 1st time seeing a mixture of beautiful yellow, red, orange greenery.. breathtaking.
Highlights of the trip:
1) Mount Fuji! sugoi yo...though it was cold at 0 deg, risking fingers kena bitten off by the cold, i still managed to take loads of pics of Fuji san... pretty!
2) The Ramen Museum! I ate the nicest and also oiliest ramen i've ever eaten in all my 25 years of life. 好幸福唷... ^_^ stall number 4... yummy.
3) Visiting DisneyLand for the first time. I was really like in another land..so fairytale-like. Definitely a must-see if you haven't been. I enjoyed but wasn't thrilled coz I don't watch Disney cartoons. haha. Plus, the weather was so cold, the wind was strong and everywhere were Qs....Qs...and more Qs. I hyperventilated for a minute when the guide said we have till 6pm in Disneyland. It was only 9am.
4) Japanese food. I love Nihon ryori! katsu don.. ramen..tempura..udon.. soba.. red bean..green tea...mOchis...
Things I liked about Japan:
1) super dupa polite sales staff! ichiban!
2) the ichiban toilets!
i actually look forward to going to their toilets..heh..check out whether they got newer spray functions and sanitizers to make your toilet experience an unforgettable one..their toilets smell dam good. when the tour guide warns us that that particular toilet is verrry dirty, it is actually 10 times better than singapore toilet.
3) Mount fuji! ...kirei desu ne.
4) the language! .. it's still a mysterious language to me.. somehow, some way.. i thought i knew how to speak it.. till i was taken aback at the counter when the cashier rattled a string of some words which i totally wakaranai..and could only nod my head and "hai!"
5) innovative stuff japs come up with. little clever and yet pretty- to- look- at inventions to make work and life easier..for housewives..kids....students..babies...
Things I don't like about japan:
1) The young girls there slap on too much make up.. gimme the feeling that they're not what i'm seeing.
2) The shops there closes too early!.. 8pm...hayaku desu ne.
3) Their infatuation with Hello Kitty and Disneyland. but then again, if i'm born in japan, maybe i'll love kitty also. besides being cute, hello kitty is like a symbol of good luck for the japs.
4) Japanese culture in general. as per the tour guide, she said that japanese men hang out till late at night after work before going home so that it seems they've got alot of entertainment to do aka they're doing well at work. poor wives. lame chop lor.
5) I don't find the hot spring fascinating.. tried once and that's it. didn't cure my stiff neck also leh.
mochi says: guess this is the best way to recap my 6 day trip to Nihon. will leave the rest to the pictures, which will be up... soon!
nua-ing time~

think the points that you dun like abt nihon are invalid! haha they slap on too much make up cos they have too much to choose! besides hellokitty, they have many other fantastic sanrio characters too.
what i agree on is the DA NAN REN ZHU YI portion though. but nihon otoko kakoii desu ne!
