JAPAN TRIP
We're in a HOT SPRING hotel !!! really really cool!! You can't say u've been to japan without going to a hotspring!! it's super duper nice!!! u'll get treated like a king here!!! it's at Fushiokaku! in Osaka! and it's my dad who took this..it's kinda blur... it's me and my bro...we're in some japanese decorated area in the room...see the birds? haahaa...
Osaka Castle!! The original castle was burned down and this is the rebulit one...the older castle grounds took up a much larger area last time...and i think it was owned by shoguns and not a king...
This is the ice cream machine!! ah...it's in a funny shape and i like ice cream...so i tried it...it wasn't too bad...haahaa...i wanted the ocha one..but they dun have...haahaa...

The post box...haahaa...i like taking post boxes...i think they are kinda cute...haahaa...they should make miniatures of it...so that weird ppl like me can buy...haahaa

TO-MA-RE..means stop...pedestrians on the road also must stop?? haahahaa...so funny...i thought only cars need to stop for pedestrians?? hahaaa

Ocha!! my first ocha in japan...from a vending machine!! haahaa!! it's HOT by the way...it's kinda warm actually...hahaaa interesting...
BIG CRABS going for 2000 yen...that's about S$27...is that cheap??? we got it at ueno side street...it's supposed to go for 4000yen...
Futons!! at the hot spring place...u know it's so organised leh this place...while we are eating...they cleared the dinning table and arranged the futons..the dining table is not visible here...the one that is visible is just an extra table...for relaxation...to have coffee and tea there...
they are so organised la...

our breakfast!!! such a spread!! but one thing...japanese food is kinda on the salty side...
and i know someone who would love this place...the whole shop is filled with these machines..the ones u gotta put in a dollar and try to get a soft toy...
one of them had these cute little...ah...animals...haahaa...they are so cute!!! i like the one at th front!!!
SHINJUKU station!!! the most complicated station i've ever came across!! there are sooooo many different lines going thru this one...and u gotta walk from one building to another and another before u can get to the line u want...and if that's not complicated enough...they threw in several huge shopping malls to confuse u even further!! uptil now.. i still dun get how they structure the buildings!! and odakyu and keio looks the same to me...and there are so many odakyu departmental stores...so u cannot use odakyu as ur landmark...u'll get lost still...
say bye to chee ko peks on trains...japan has a seperate carriage for males and females during peak hours!! yay!!

bento that u'll eat on shinkansens....this is a cheapo bento...haahaa...i bought it...but in the end i din eat it...and i brought it back to singapore...and i still din eat it...then it expired...haahaa...then it went into the bin...oh dear...it cost about 4bucks sing...haaaaa
super narrow streets lined with food stalls!!! there is super limited seatings!! so be sure to be there earlier to get ur seats!! this is where the working class japanese eat!!

last but not least, the FIVE MEGA PIXEL handphone!!!! can singapore match up???
haahaa!!! i wanna go japan again!!! next time must go see cherry blossoms!!! yay!!
