Hi guys, i am back from Japan. Okay, i shall start with my tour initinery..a rather brief account in fact...

First day: quite stupid cos my flight from singapore to osaka is considered a day. *fumes* the plane's flight is at midnight, and reaches osaka in the morning at abt 7 plus... bloody hell, could not sleep well the whole night. Why? in the cabin, the space is too cramped, cant stretch my legs.... so my sleep was like in naps...damn it....

Second day: reached osaka, when i stepped out of the plane, a wave of chillness overwhelmed me.... quickly took another shirt from my bag and put it on... feeling groggy cos did not sleep well the night b4... den after taking our hand carry bags , we proceed to the immigration counter and the queue is long. what makes the whole thing worse is that the counter is blooooody sloooooowwwwwwww.... stood there for quite a while like a country bumpkin idiot.. finally, we went to collect out luggage and went to find our tour guide and the rest of the tour group ... the guide is called henry lin, an indonesian chinese.... he is rather humourous... den we set off for universal studio..... WAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! pple mountain pple sea!!! so we queue and sat almost all the rides, quite fun lah, though the weather was cold.... after almost a whole day there, we went out to gather with the rest and the guide brought us to shinsaibashi which is a shopping street for dinner and some free time for shopping... did not buy anything yet but went to visit arcades cos songluck told me it was diff..... well not much difff leh....... after we went shopping, we head straight for the hotel.... the hotel rooms are quite spacy... not bad not bad... haha..... den we had to sleep cos we were so god damn tired and also becos the morning call is 6am which is 5am!!! in singapore time!!!!

3rd Day:went to Nara to visit the Nara Deer park.... i realised that the jap treat the deers with utter respect.... must be some sacred animal according to their culture... den after that, we went to a few temples which i am lazy to name them,.... haha... what a luck day cos we manage to see three geishas(or called art prostitutes)... my mum quickly clicked the camera as if there were unlimited films..... Discovered something: the uniforms of jap boys are quite smart looking... black coat, black pants... waahh, like keanu reeves in the matrix.. as for the gers, nah not like carie-ann moss if u think so. their skirts are uhem.... very short in stark contrast to singapore gers....... reached toyohashi... well that is all for today...

4th day: sat Japan's famous bullet train...... It is so blooooooooddddddddy fast that i started to think abt Bernoulli Effect.. Oh my goodness!! went to the majestic and symbolic Mt Fuji!!!!! Beautiful.... On the way to the mountain, there were a few times we could actually see the mountain unfortunately the clouds were a nuisance... Henry said Fuji is like a shy girl hiding behind the curtains... haha... Finally reached the fifth step of Fuji.... stepped out of the bus and i almost became ice... den went to the shops to warm myself.... guess what i saw... it is extremely lame and corny. They actually had canned Air of Mt Fuji!!!!! what the ....... and it cost a stupid 300 yen.... gosh!!! went to the hotel resort near one of Fuji's biggest lakes... during dinner, we met Singapore volleyball team from St. Hildas Sec... wah, they are really the pride of Singaporeans man!!!!!!! they smacked the jap 5 to kosong!!!!! the hotel is so bloody small.... sianzz.... very jap style, have to sleep on the floor....

5th day: Today's prgram got not much things but rather shopping until my legs wanted to break at its joints!!!!!!! Sianzzzzz

6th day: yeah!!!!! going to disney land!!!!!!! so lucky cos we can get to see the parade by the disney char for the celebration of their 20th anniversary... took quite a lot of rides but not as exciting as universal studio ones..... got one ride called space mountain, an in-door roller coaster was closed... so sad... not really lah actually cos i sat it b4 in bangkok!!!!! haha...... as the skies darken very early, in the end we got lost when we were on our way out..... though we got map, but the lights around were very dim.... so cant figure it out...... well, we were late by half an hour... so paiseh, the rest of the grp had to wait so long for us/ :P

last day: alas! my fingers are a bit numb by now..... nothing much, shopping shopping shopping....... den headed straight for airport..... and PRESTO!!!! back in singapore typing this brief japan tour journal!!
