Konichiwa Singapore i'm back

Konichiwa,i am back in Singapore after 8 exciting and crazy days in Japan.

On day 1,we had to wake very early to catch our plane at 6.00a.m.When our plane alighted we have to wait for a limo(a shutter bus) to Sunshine City Prince Hotel.Because it was raining we decided to go outside to experience how cold it is,the weird thing is we realised that the temperature is only 10 degrees so it's not that cold(i am not even wearing a jacket)but can still breathe out steam and this is our first time breathing out steam so this got us really excited.The bus trip was quite long so i slept in the bus.I woke just same time when the bus reached Sunshine City Prince Hotel but another weird is that it was already dark and i thought it was already about 7.00p.m but when i checked the time it was only 5.00p.m!? and by the way the time in Japan is 1 hour Singapore,that means that Singapore is still very bright.Anyway,when we reached hotel we met our cousins then we check in to our hotel rooms,the hotel rooms are very spacious and it has a good view outside.We spent the rest of the shopping,we also saw some cool stuff we don't get see Singapore.

On day 2,we went to Disneyland but before that we had to take a train,the place was crazy as it was so crowded and we can see people rushing to get the train there's madness in every stop.When we reached Disneyland,we first took the star jets then we went for the grand circuit raceway later we took the Roger rabbit ride and i find that fun as we spun around during the ride.After lunch we continue to take rides, my favourite rides are Buzz light year astro blasters, Shooting galleries,Space Mountain and Big Thunder roller coaster ride.While we are eating dinner we manage to see the parade as it passes by our restaurant.It has been a fun and tiring for us.

On day 3,we(plus some other locals and tourists)took a shutter bus that will bring us up to Mount Fuji.First we visited the Mt.Fuji visitors center to learn about different types of mountains.Then the bus headed to Mount Fuji,however,we weren't able to go far up as it is too foggy,but at least the bus passed by a forest that had snowed for the past few days,so the bus decided to stop here to let us enjoy the snow.It was the first time we and our cousins saw real snow so we were really happy about it!My brother and i played snowball fight with our cousins but soon have to leave,after we have lunch we took a cruise ride to take cable car up to the to the sight seeing point where we can see the submit of Mt.Fuji and it was an awesome view.It was also getting dark by then so the bus alighted all of us at Shin Juku,we went to the shopping mall to eat and shop there.then we took a train back to our hotel.



On day 4,it was the last day we will be in Tokyo so we took the train again to walk around the streets of Shin Juku.We also went to a digital shop where they sell all the electronic stuff,it was then i got interested on having an Ipod but ARRGH they won't allow me to buy it on that day.We went back to Ikebukuro and i helped my parents and uncle to carry our luggages to the Shinkensen(bullet train)as we are leaving to Osaka it was quite a tiring task as we have to rush in order not to miss the Shinkensen.Luckily we were on time to catch the train and reached our cousins' house at about 8-9p.m.


On day 5,we went to Adventure Land,i heard from my cousins that we have to complete many obstecale courses and i like obstecale courses but once i'm all ready to start,the RAIN sets in!So we prayed deeply that the rain would stop and guess what,it really did!So we had great fun.After that we took a train to Sannomiya then we decided that all the males and females will seperate to shop for their own stuff.Somehow my uncle wanted to shop alone and asked us to wait outside so i wonder what's my uncle up to.Later we joined together again and walked to our uncle's church as it is a Sunday.After church we went to Kobe station to eat dinner then we headed back home.


On day 6,it's snow sledging day but first we have to take a train to Rokkomichi than we still have to take a bus to Mt.Rokko and take a train to go up the mountain.While we are sledging we got all wet by the ice so we immediately change to our skiing suits and sledged again,however,we did not go for skiing because it was not early and it is also quite expensive.At the meantime we thought we saw a very light drizzle of snow so we prayed that it will snow.And true enough it really snowed(very heavily)and we felt so thankful that god answered our prayer for yesterday and today.When we returned i had a suprise birthday party and my birthday present is an Ipod!!!And it was actually my uncle who bought it for me so i gave him a big hug.

On day 7,We took a special rapid to Kyoto and visited two temples on my way to the first temple,i found 100YEN on floor it's like my lucky day was a short day we headed home.

On day 8,We have to prepare to go back to Singapore.Afterall i think i've gained alot when i am in Japan and i hope i can go back one day and we will also miss our cousins.
