原來寫遊記真係唔簡單, 由揀相到構思文字(我仲係寫雙語!!), 少點精力都唔得.. 不過既然話咗呢個東京之旅要寫得詳細, 咁就唔可以縮沙喇!! 我冇帶相機去東京, 淨係揸住部手機見週圍影, 所以我部手機全部都係風景實物.. 好多相都仲喺朋友部相機度, 所以呢度啲相, 大家都唔會見到我喇.. 相信大家對風景嘅興趣多過我啦, 而且我發覺我當時個樣又肥又老又殘, 都係唔好獻醜為妙, 哈哈!! 點都好, 呢篇係遊記第二集, 希望大家喜歡.. :) | |
i realized it's not easy to write travelogue at all, from picking the photos to writing the contents (furthermore i'm writing in two languages!!), you just need lots of energy.. anyway since i've mentioned i will blog more in details about this trip, i have no way going back!! i did not bring camera to tokyo but just snapping things with my mobile phone, hence photos i am having now are all objects and sceneries.. still lots of photos in friend's camera, thus you won't find me in what i'm showing you here.. i believe everyone is more interested to see the place rather than me, also i find myself looking old and fat and weary, better be wise not to show my shortcoming, haha!! anyway, this is part two of the travelogue and i hope you'll enjoy reading it.. :) | |

Good Monday morning SK, everyone!
ReplyDeleteThank you for a lovely second day tour of Tokyo. Japan has many best practices we can all adopt.
DeleteDidn't know about cheap secondhand goods. Thanks for sharing.
yeah, i think if we are open to the diversity of cultures, there are always something worth learning from each of them.. oh, if happen that i'm going to Tokyo again, i am sure to grab some gadgets back home~~ :p
DeleteThat's why I don;t like having my photo taken anymore...so big, fat and ugly...and so old! Sobs!
ReplyDeletei still take photo, but then ended up i have to delete most of them.. haiz, we are facing the same problem yeah?? :p
DeleteHello Ah Boy! Your nice photos are out at last. I can see lots of people everywhere during the Golden Week.
ReplyDeleteat last?? meaning those i posted in the previous parts are not nice?? or Anay wanted to see a lot of people in the photo??
Deletewoi. anay...you punya apa macam...China cerita habis liao ka? so long no blog updates
Deletehahahaha, anay very busy spamming comments in thambee's blog.. anyway, i think it's really not easy to come out with a travel post lah.. thambee needs one whole day to write one post, i guess anay needs one week~~ :D
DeleteWhere got one whole day to write one post? I can finish in less than 1 hour.
Deletewrite in my style and see?? hahaha.. and don't forget you only write in one language.. i am writing in two languages!!
DeleteAiyor!!!! Everywhere so crowded!!! Old man, seeing that...already head pening. I'm not into Japanese food, so no problem with your photos....hehehehe!!!!!
ReplyDeleteyeah, it was crowded in many places, but at least everything is in good order.. i really didn't face any problem with crowds there..
Deleteerrr, not into japanese food and no problem with my photos?? what's the linkage there??
Aiyor...what did you do? Fing Fing looks soooo worn out. Be kind to the poor thing, you! LOL!!!!
ReplyDeletei left him in the hotel room and i happily went out having fun, hahaha~~ :D
DeleteI don't care whether I look fat, old and ugly....that's life that I have to walk the journey. I still snap kinky and silly photos like a teenager! Wakakakaka...
ReplyDeletePlease add the photos you wore the Japanese Robe and breastfed Fing Fing!
Pleas add the photos you wore nothing but birthday suit when you were in Sentō.
DeleteIf I am old and ugly, it is still who I am. I think I will still put my pictures in all ages.
DeleteAnay and Yannie are both not fat, not old and not ugly at all.. Anay so stylo and so handsome, Yannie so pretty and so sexy like a celebrity model in the photos lah..
DeleteAh boy changing topic ahhhh
Deleteokay lah, back to the topic.. Ah Boy IS FAT and OLD lah.. i always admit that~~ :p
DeleteThis Small Kucing damn teruk pussy, likes everyone to share kaldip's waistlines! Muahahahahaha
DeleteIf Ah Boy thinks that he is FAT and OLD, then anay is a senile grandfather! LOL
Anay maybe be a senile grandfather, but then he doesn't look like his age!! he is still so bergaya like Wang Lee Hom..
DeleteI love that Flying Koinobori hanging up there. It looks so Japanese and fun. I regretted for not buying one myself and hang around my neck!
ReplyDeleteFlying Koinobori is really nice, I wish to have one to hang on my house too if I have a baby grand son.
DeleteGood Idea, Yannie.
Deleteyeah, it was nice seeing those koinobori swaying with the breeze.. it felt so japanese seeing that.. i also saw lots of those in another place on the very last day.. lucky~~ :)
DeleteI also have same thoughts like you while holidaying in Japan. We stayed at 3 and 4 star hotels on different nights to pamper ourselves.
ReplyDeleteIn China, I stayed at 4 and 5 Star hotels instead as they were so cheap with promotions.
wow, meaning Anay moved from hotel to hotel on a daily basis?? that could be quite tiring too having to pack and unpack everyday.. what i mean was, averagely decent hotel throughout the trip, but reserve one night for super luxury one, haha!! :D
DeleteWe stayed for 6 nights and slept in 3 different hotels in Osaka and Kyoto. It is always a risk to book the hotels when we have no idea how good and comfy they could be. So better rotate a bit.
Deleteyes, i agree with that.. don't place all your eggs in one basket.. furthermore, you are going to different places, sure you need to book different hotels lah..
DeleteGood morning, SK and all! That flying kites are lovely to look at. They look like flying fish!
ReplyDeleteOh, that tendon tempura rice is definitely my favorite. Would love its crispy ingredients.
DeleteIf I were there, I would love to shop till I drop.
Deletewenn, you sure will shop till you drop, there are just so many places you can buy things in Japan.. furthermore, things are so cheap compared to those that are imported from Japan to Malaysia.. and food wise, sure you can find lots of nice food~~ :)
Delete性飢渴,性愛玩意我想要啊!
ReplyDelete哈哈!! 咁去日本就啱晒你喇, 各種款式各種功能, 可以盡情購買~~ :D
Delete好!我要買好多好多SM產品返嚟!
Delete原來你咁重口味㗎?? 喺宮中深閨太過寂寞了?? 哈哈~~ :D
Delete冇錯, 喺深宮中寂寞難耐;金枝慾孽呀嘛!
Delete金枝慾孽(貳)比較明顯地姣婆守唔到寡喎, 哈哈!! :D
DeleteGood morning....
ReplyDeleteya lo not easy to write travelogue ...some more have to describe so many things ...sorting photo is another problem...soemtimes feel like putting everythng in but then scared readers got bored pulak....
okay la...will come back later to comment.....got something to do now...ciao!
exactly.. have to sort out the photos and then write the stories.. and then have to be short and sweet and yet interesting, have to take concern on how the readers might react.. woooh, not easy at all!! :)
DeleteVery interesting trip! Like the short and sweet descriptions with each photo. And I realized Japanese food is not as expensive as I thought it would be.. you know how everyone always says you need to spend a lot in Japan..
ReplyDeletehmmmm, that is actually what we always perceived, but then when you are really there, it's really not that expensive if you know the place well.. furthermore, japanese yen is relatively cheaper now.. :)
DeleteGood morning SK!
ReplyDeleteYea, not easy to write travelogue at all, really. Have to pick photos then share about the places/food etc, but then, I think the process is quite enjoyable la, right? ;)
Your mobile phone also produce good quality images wo! We wanna see scenery but we also interested to see your face la! =)
DeleteThe market place is interesting! And the crowd around the asakusa, OMG! Packed like sardine huh?
Seriously everywhere is so pretty there! Day view and night view with all the neon lights are equally awesome!
DeleteI am sure your phone is filled with all Tokyo's photos now! Hehe.. Did you ever count roughly how many photos taken during the trip?
Apa hotel? Haha what a 'nice' name? Hmm did you check what does apa means in Japanese? But doesn't matter la, as long as the hotel room is nice and cozy!
DeleteHmm I think fing fing is quite tired throughout the trip, but I am sure he enjoys the trip as much as his owner did!
Yes I enjoyed reading about your Tokyo trip! But I hope to see your face in the coming posts, faster pester your friends to send those photos to you la! Don't say yourself old la!! Aiyo, you are still a boy ma~~ ^^
DeleteYeah lar, show more of your photos for the upfront coming post k... We want to see you too.
DeleteDon't be shy. kekeke...
very true, i actually spent hours in writing one post like that.. from picking the photos, to touching up a little on the photos, to writing a short story for each of the photo (somemore in two languages!!).. last time can write 3 posts in a day to schedule, but with this only can write 1 a day, haha!!
Deletemany interesting places, i like those places that they still keep the traditional culture.. and though crowds were everywhere, but everything was in good order, people are disciplined and polite.. so no problem with that.. :)
errr, actually not bad lah the photos taken with my phone.. hmmm, i have taken like 450 photos with my phone, but have no idea how many in my friend's camera, haha!! nowadays with digital camera things are more convenient lah, no need to scared not enough film mah~~ but then me not handsome lah, see the scenery better right?? :D
When I click my site, I quickly see whether SK - Ah Boy got share his part III - Japan Travelogue bo.
ReplyDeleteYES! He did! I quickly click in, read and see his photos with short details for each one. I was curiously wanted to read part IV ler already...
hahaha, thank you for your support.. i am actually worrying if i'm writing too much and everyone started to get bored.. anyway, will have 6 posts in total for this trip and will be posted on every alternate days lah, if you are interested to know~~ :p
DeleteSK, you're not fat, just chubby and cute. Hehehe...
ReplyDeleteYes we like to see and read more about Japan. But without you it is impossible for us to see it. Muahaha... You're still very important person.
Angeline, chubby and cute, we are using these two word for babies only.
DeleteYou start bodeking the blog owner now.
Muahaha....
Deletehahaha, chubby and cute?? what a description on me huh?? yierr, i don't want chubby and cute lah, i wish myself hunky and handsome can or not?? hahahaha~~ :D
DeleteI'll be saying that to you when you really have 6 piece of chocolates "muscle" first okie?
Deletewakakakaka, very high requirements lah.. i got six but then they all united to become one~~ :D
DeleteYou'll realised many shops, outlets, even houses and buildings are build in such kind of sizes. So they can fit in more stalls and many more people staying there.
ReplyDeleteI like their morning wet market. It is wet but it stays clean everywhere. How can it be?
They really jaga kebersihan every where.
oh yes, i kind of find their buildings are rather "slim tall" and neatly arranged along the streets.. very nice planning lah.. and yes, the place is very clean and you don't see any sampah sarap everywhere like what we are so used to see in Malaysia.. haha!! :D
DeleteThat is why our country need more Tong Sampah than Japan. Hehehe.
DeleteRemember previous post you've mentioned? you said don't see any dustbin geh?
Last time, I try to see any toothpicks...but no lor. I can't find any.
yalor, i think the japanese bring all the rubbish home and then sort them into different categories before throwing them.. hmmm, even the bottles, they have to take off the label and dispose them separately~~ very stressful hor?? @_@
DeleteFor them is not a stress, they are well trained up! They know the rubbish is theirs, they are responsibility to handle their own rubbish. I don't think they brought home. E.g: sweets' paper, they eat the sweets and keep the sweet paper until they saw one tong sampah, they only throw it lor.
DeleteM'sian, tak kisah lar, buang aje. In their mind set - this is not my house compound anyway.
yalor, i agree with that.. they are so well brought up and educated for being responsible for their own rubbish.. over here, we are brought up in exactly the opposite way, just throw at other people's place and pretend you did not do it~~ :D
DeleteAsakusa, I still had my photo with that huge lantern ler at FB. Yeap, agreed that everyone fighting to get the best spot.
ReplyDeleteSo nice of you browsing souvenirs for your readers. Appreciate that you think of us. The lucky ones must be very happy to receive it from you. Luckily you didn't get from there. Cos it is quite pricey!
yeah, asakusa is one of the places i wished to be there before i was in Tokyo, kind of a landmark right that huge red lantern?? hahaha, because received too many souvenirs from bloggers already, so die die also must get something back~~ :D
DeleteI like their green tea ice cream more... Very smooth.
ReplyDeletei am someone who doesn't like any green tea by products.. but then i find their green tea kit-kat kind of nice.. not just like those green tea flavored things here, just only 死綠茶 and no taste one~~
DeleteWeather is nice and the flying fish koi kites are defnitely an awesome thing to see.
ReplyDeleteyes, weather was good.. cooling and sunny, just a short while of drizzle on the night of our arrival, rest of the days, good weather.. :)
DeleteSinbashi is the my fav place to hang out. Lots of people at every hour. I wonder they spend their shopping spree here. So many to see, so many to choose. Definitely is a heaven for ladies.
ReplyDeleteThat "hamsap" alleys you mentioned. I did bought one lingerie top from one of the stall. This niche stall selling all kinds of bras and lingeries - some are very sexy and hot!
hahaha, we didn't spend too much time in Shimbashi actually, just one night there.. we spent most of the time in Ueno where our tatami hotel was.. a lot of things to see and a lot of things to eat, 5 days is just not enough, haha!!
Deletefuyoh, you bought kinky lingerie from those sex shops?? hahaha.. i bet your hubby sure nose-bleeding~~ :D
Haiya, normal one only. I didn't get those so sexy ler...
Deletehahaha, those shops sell normal one meh?? maybe your definition of sexy and normal is different from mine lah~~ :D
DeleteSK, I salute you with that short period time of visit, You able to cover most of the famous places. Great planning! I think you can be on your on when you're going for the second trip.
ReplyDeleteyeah, first time visit must try to go to those must-go places as much as possible.. still i think we didn't have much time for shopping, and lots of things we didn't manage to eat also.. one trip is never enough, i am planning for a second round if possible~~ :D
DeleteMentioning about food. ¥450 for that whole bowl of beef platter.. it is definitely a steal.
ReplyDeletei remember that was ¥450.. we didn't go to expensive places lah, just those japanease-style fast food chain, food are nice enough.. :)
DeleteAPA HOTEL? Nice name. Fing Fing must be very proud that SK let him stays at a ¥10,000 hotel per night. Not many soft toys as lucky as Fing Fing. Fing Fing please give your master a big hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteFlight is cheap. But hotel rates in Japan is more likely this kind of ranges. Those you can get is a very good deal.
Nice reading your post. Short and brief. Straight to the point.
haha no idea, but i checked from internet it says APA stands for Always Pleasant Amenity, dunno if that's true.. yeah, must thank my friend for planning everything for this trip, he studied in Osaka and has been staying in Japan for 8 years before coming back to Malaysia..
Deletethanks for your compliment, i hope to write better in the coming posts.. :)
SK...
ReplyDeleteWhy I cannot see your post clearly as the background greenery overshadow the post on IE?
Sad la. Cannot see. Cannot spam.
Have to wait till balik from office.
Cos I'm lazy to spam using my phone. Hard to type fast. kekeke
Anyway, I think if the restaurants here put condiments out generously, some of the customers will cart them away.
I've seen people taking hot dog relishes at Ikea cafe in bottles/cups to bring back home. :(
Our society is not the "take what you need type" one.
Glaring example is how Malaysians and Japanese would behave at buffet lines. ENough said. :(
Lina I was having problem viewing and reading too actually. Sometimes is white sometimes greenish all the way.
DeletePerfectly ok over here, no problem at all.
Deletehmmm, got such problem ah?? i'm using both IE and FF to read my blog, no problem at all.. hmmm, maybe it's the version?? aih, headache lah, all these different versions of browser and operating systems..
Deleteaiyoh, you've seen people tabao those hotdog relishes from IKEA?? OMG, how gross!! the most i've seen was people taking too much and ended up choking eating them till face gone red, wakakakaka, padan muka!!
my side usng FF and handphone ok wor...no problem leh...got white background
Deleteyalor, i also dunno what happened, always got people have problem viewing my blog huh?? haiz~~
DeleteIf you ask me to write in chinese, will be super long time to write...
ReplyDeleteyeah, it takes time to write in two languages~~ it took me hours almost one day to one write one post like this~~ :D
Deletegyudon seems reall yummy and
ReplyDeleteit was a kinda huge serving huh
oh yeah, you are right!! it was huge in portion and tasted very nice~~ :0
Deletewow those were a lot of stuffs to buy huh! ad there's also a shop for hamap people huh I remeber i when saw one here too it was just insane
ReplyDeleteyes, a lot of things to see and to buy from ameya-yokocho, we have been there for three times and yet we were not able to see all~~ :D
Deletewow i could imagine how big it sure is
Deleteit's quite a big place and furthermore too many shops and if you need to see one by one, you need many trips i guess~~ :p
Deletethose billboards somehow reminds me of
ReplyDeletenewyork's time square haha
i think those in New York are equally fascinating huh?? i wish i could be there one day.. :)
Deletewell why not next year? haha
Deletehahaha, no plan for US yet.. i think i'm more interested in Europe, haha!!
Deleteasakusa was too crowded indeed
ReplyDeletehaha it was really hustle to go ans look around
and to take picture there
though it was crowded but then everything was in good order, probably because the japanese are disciplined and polite.. :)
Deleteohh, i see, well i salute them for that
Deletethe japanese are definitely disciplined and polite, they are well-know for that~~ :)
Deletelanterns well it always reminds me of japan!
ReplyDeletei never seen an anime of a japanese show
without it haha and those loi kites as well
oh yeah, lanterns are very common in japan and also in china.. and those koi kites, kind of beautiful i think.. :)
Deleteskytree! i think it was one of the site
ReplyDeletealways shown at japanese shows that
and their gigantic ferris wheel too
oh really?? but i am not watching any japanese show or drama series often.. ferris wheel?? hmmm, i have not heard about that.. :)
Deletewell i think they have this huge ferris wheel,
Deleteor maybe it was just on an anime haha
hmmm, i have no idea about that.. maybe i can google that later.. :)
Deleteyour dinner just makes my jaw drop!
ReplyDeletehaha that was a huge tempura!
anyways can you ea rice on chopsticks?
i tried it and it was so hard
hahaha, i think most of the things there were given in very large portion.. yeah, it's quite common to use chopsticks for rice, hmmm, you should learn that before going to Japan, haha!! :D
Deletehaha well i'll try i have my chopstick at home in fact
Deleteit's very common to use chopsticks in japan.. in fact everything with chopstick you don't even need a spoon or a fork.. you drink the soup from the bowl directly, you scoop the rice with your chopsticks~~ :)
DeleteI think i gonna be needing this app for my next post!
ReplyDeleteanyway i tried that banner thingy but i found out
that it was needed to be paid right?
errr, you don't really have to pay for that.. you can still publish your banner, just that for unpaid version, they will add a tiny little link back to their website (advertising themselves) at the bottom of the banner, which i find not really a big deal..
Deletewell, now im lazy to try it agian haha perhaps some other time i'll try it again
Deletehahaha.. sure, and i hope by the time you try it the website is still there and giving free usage~~ :D
Deletehave a great day and happy bloggin sk!
ReplyDeletetake care always and god bless you too
same to you too, have a great day and happy blogging~~ :)
DeleteGimme five!!! I totally understand your situation, sometimes lazy to write in two languages, and even want to give up but when wrote in Mandarin my friends will say they can't read Chinese, once I wrote in English, some people say they can't understand, and the translate engine tool doesn't really translate everything properly!!! =[
ReplyDeletePlus, I know is not easy to write travelogue, sometimes I just thinking of just upload all the pictures without any descriptions of it, because can't really recall back during the trip!!! =]
Deletehahaha, though not easy but then i have been writing in two languages for many years, this is the signature feature of my blog, so cannot give up, haha!!
Deleteyeah, i have thought of just post some photos and simple description to conclude the trip.. but then requests and pressures from readers have made me write more~~ :D
Tip to visit Sensoji. Go early morning or evening. No tourist. Not that much. Sensoji has illumination thingy going on so you can visit the temple area at night. Nice and lesser crowd. But of course, Nakamise-dori (that's the alley of kitschy touristy shops) is closed lah. ;)
ReplyDeleteaiyoh, the Japan Expert has only got one tip for us here?? eih, sikit lah, should have give more tips so that we all can travel to Japan with the best knowledge~~ but i guess during the golden week, still lots of people even though it's "off peak" hours?? :p
DeleteOk I give you another tip.
DeleteSome of the items sold at Nakamise dori can be bought at almost 50% at shops in the nearby Kappabashi area. I kid you not.
But you hv to know which shop to go to lah. Hehehe
hahaha, i saw the price tag and decided not to buy any from there already.. kappabashi area?? dunno where lah.. got map or not?? hahaha~~ :D
Deletea. wah lau eh ......a lot of ingredients leh and generous .
ReplyDeleteIn Msia mana ada beg for more....u want more , add money la
got lah, those are supposed to be given free of charge but you have to ask and beg lor..
DeleteB...ahem ahem got the Doremon thingy ka :p
ReplyDeleteerrr, i cannot find them leh.. my friend said those are not easily available now woh~~
Deletec. The place looks so sempit and yet people can cycle through without problem...
ReplyDeleteyes, that shows how polite and considerate and disciplined the japanese are.. :)
Deleted. so what did you buy? any new gadget?
ReplyDeleteno lah, i got no money to buy this time.. maybe next time lah.. haha!!
Deletee. really yan shan yan hoi over there.
ReplyDeletebut their "people mountain people sea" also not a problem lah, everything in good order aje..
Deletef. no souvenirs no problem...got potos to see is enough jor. It's like arm chair travelling :p
ReplyDeletehahaha.. arm chair traveling?? first time hear this term leh, apa maksud??
DeleteMeans i travelling without leaving homeor..just watch travel show in tv, read mag, read blog..jimat a lot leh...kekekeke..
DeleteG...eh this one loook familar la...didnt you snap hoto of something like this in your HK trip last year?
ReplyDeletehuh?? this one is Tokyo lah, i don't remember there's anything similar in HK woh..
DeleteGit. When you guys were climbing one hill. A lot of bamboo ounya
DeleteH cham...i thought it's a boat ./ didnt know it's sandal
ReplyDeletehahahaha!! that is why sometimes cannot take for granted the readers will know, must explain~~ :D
DeleteI.wah lau eh/..big spender ni.....only have big notes LOL
ReplyDeletebecause the money changer here all give big notes to me.. and everything is paid by my friend, come back baru kira everything one shot mah.. so i have no chance to spend money yet, so still all big notes~~ :D
DeleteJ. they celebrated Children day so early ah...here we baru gng to celebrate leh
ReplyDeleteyeah, but i think their children's day has slightly different meaning from ours lah.. dunno lah, i didn't go and google about this yet, hahahaha!!
DeleteK ...weird weird thing geh...sweet potatoes ice cream...cham me so outdated ...never heard of dehydrated fries
ReplyDeleteeih, now everything also possible one.. my friend told me that's sweet potato ice cream, but i tasted it and think it's yam lah, dunno.. hahaha, can get the dehydrated fries here also from Mr Potato, i think RM3.90 one tub, quite expensive..
DeleteL. your comments reminds me of people snapping photo at KLCC.....trying to filll the two towers into the frame :p
ReplyDeletehahaha, meow give me five!! actually i have written "that was what i learnt from people in KLCC" but then not good to say like that lah, so i erased that already~~ :D
DeleteM. LOL...pandai jimat ah you
ReplyDeletehahaha, ya lah, all those what tower what tower, i see from far happy enough already, no need to go up lah..
DeleteN. can snap meh? I find that night time not so handphone friendl....hard to focus
ReplyDeletetrue also lah, night time the photo from handphone not so nice one.. but still acceptable for me lah, since i didn't bring camera mah..
DeleteO. is that fried lotus root? looks yummy leh....wei...i see like you guys eat a lot of fried things geh....come back KL must drink more water leh...later sick
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, that's fried lotus root, very nice.. though deep fried but then i didn't feel the heatiness leh.. hmmmm, maybe i had yoghurt after that..
DeleteP...lol...poor fing fing...exhausted
ReplyDeletebecause daddy ditched him alone in the hotel room and went out for the whole day, at night baru back to hug him!! hahaha~~
DeleteI'm impressed by the hill of sliced beef of your beef rice!
ReplyDeleteyes, the portions of food served are most of the time very huge!! that's why i think i gained weight~~ :D
DeletePhoto A; Your Gyudon bowl was so big like a helmet size! You ate so much for brunch!!! I lost weight when I visited Japan for a week as I walked too much and ate so much lesser. You made a wise choice to spend only 450 YEN for a brunch that covered 2 meals!! That calculates to 225 YEN a meal. Smart Ah Boy!
ReplyDeletewoke up late that's why not having breakfast but brunch.. i ate so much in Tokyo lah, though also walked a lot but then i think the input was more than output!! at least not all eating and no walking lah~~ hey, i think Anay spent even less than Thambee, Anay should list down how he can spend so little in Japan..
DeleteWe were just lucky lah. I brought so much cash there and came back to change the yen into MYR, I am not sure whether they still have this promo in Osaka. The Tourism Ministry offers tourists the 2 Day Pass at 2000 Yen which allows you to visit some 36 places in Osaka for FREE!!!! Plus free unlimited rides on all the subway trains in Osaka for 2 days!!!!!
DeleteThe free entrances include boat cruise, Ferry Wheel (World Tallest), Ancient castle, 2 Best Hot Spring Spas and 30 other places!!!! It saved all our monies and made Anay go nuts!
that sounds nice Anay!! no wonder you spent so little for 6 days in Japan and you were travelling between Osaka, Kyoto and Nara!! i must remember to check this out when i go Osaka later..
DeletePhoto B: There are many Ameya-Yokocho concept shops in their country to make shopping easier! We are so behind in terms of enviromental, town & building planning! Next time I must buy spy cameras to snap photos in these shops! I sure wanna snap the sex shop items to entertain the blog readers!
ReplyDeletevery true, they have good planning ahead and what they have planned to do, it will come out as the planned.. so unlike what we have here, big projects but after rounds of "evaluation" become family scale already..
Deleteanay, just buy stuffs from the sex shops and show us your loots, that will be enough to entertain the bloggers.. and more importantly "entertain" Letchumi~~ :D
Photo C: When I first worked in KL, I joined the branch of Hakuhodo Advertising Agency. I worked under rigid minded department heads who don't allow you to think outside their creative box. That is why you see all their signs and ads are safe looking BUT very aggressive!!! I am glad Thambee likes their styles too.
ReplyDeleteoh i didn't know that, now Anay mentioned that, the signboards are indeed quite the same style huh?? anyway, i love the way they placed them, that's a combination of mess and tidiness, haha, how zen!! :D
DeletePhoto D: I am surprised that they do sell second hand gadgets!!!! I thought they are fussy folks who only want nothing but the best! What did Ah Boy buy from there for us? 2nd hand thumb drives!!!!??? Phiak!
ReplyDeleteyes, the rich ones will want to latest and the best, that is why they dispose off their gadgets fast.. i think mostly foreigners go there to get models that are not even available at their countries.. 2nd hand thumb drives?? Anay is hoping the previous hand has forgotten to delete off all the hamsap photos and movies?? :D
DeletePhoto E: That huge lantern is really a famous icon for Tokyo and now I know it is located in Asakusa! I always mix up with the word "Aksaka" area. Hmmm.. I am taking notes of Ah boy's foot prints and will visit same places when I visit Tokyo someday.
ReplyDeleteAnay have not been to Tokyo before?? yeah, that huge red lantern is one of the icon for Tokyo, must go there to take photos.. errr, where got Aksaka?? Akasaka (赤坂) you mean?? true, easily mixed them up~~
DeleteI didn't go to Tokyo cos that time radiation still lurking there! So Air Asia was offering harga runtuh for flights to Osaka. I think my return flight was less than RM600.
Deleteno wonder!! only RM600 for the return flight?? that's half of my return ticket to Tokyo!!
DeletePhoto F: You walked pass so many shops before Sensoji but bought nothing for us!!!! How dare you! Phiak! Phiak your head!
ReplyDeleteaiyoh, such a huge crowd and Thambee also pening.. furthermore can never buy souvenirs from those shops lah, they are charging like sky high~~
DeletePhoto G: The lanterns in Sensoji are really neat and lovely to look! Are they fully lighted up at night? This our Oriental culture of using lighted lanterns and candles for auspicious reasons.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised they serve free Green tea to the public! They are normally so money faced - even to charge tokens to enter places of worships!
hmmm, i have no idea what they look like at night, i think the place is also closed at night.. errr, i think it was public holiday that day, and there was some events happening there, they served free green tea at a booth from 9am till 4pm.. aahh, so nice!!
DeletePhoto H: What is the purpose of the huge straw sandal hanging there????? I has got me curious and interested for me to find out as I have seen several places in Malaysia putting straw sandals in quiet corners of their business premises. I suspected it had something to do with feng shui. I really saw it first at MPH Bookstore! It was placed on high self away from public eye view but anay tall lah, could see every kutu on people's heads too.
ReplyDeleteno fengshui lah, BTW seldom hear the japanese talk about fengshui huh?? the straw sandals (waraji), or huge straw sandals (o-waraji) were offerings to shrines and temples in japanese tradition.. people offer waraji as part of their prayers, primarily for safe travel and health.. this pair of sandals at Sensoji each measures 4.5m in length, 1.5m in width and weighs about 500kg!!
Delete500kgs!!!!!! Sure boh? Anay faints!
Deletehahaha.. i don't know but i googled it since Anay aroused my curiosity~~ :D
DeletePhoto I: So many friends snapped photos of themselves under the huge lantern. Did Ah boy take them too? Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show! Show!
ReplyDeletei asked my friend to snap of course, such a huge crowd there of course i was shy to snap myself.. i did that inside in front of those white lanterns, hahaha!! but i deleted them all off, because i looked so fat holding the camera facing myself!! KNN~~
DeletePhoto J: The Japanese are good in Art and apply creativity on anything to hang or flies above. In case you dunno, even the way they bathe in the Sento also got ART!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think I saw the same fishes being sold at DAISO!!! You can buy them and give the HHBC bloggers!
basically you can get many souvenirs from DAISO!! i saw lots of snacks there which are imported directly from Japan (not made in China).. of course, i won't just go to DAISO and get the souvenirs lah, what's the purpose.. i bought and carried all the way back from Tokyo dei~~
DeletePhoto K: I must confess that I ran out souvenirs after my trip to Japan and Korea. So I went to 100 YEN shops and Korean Grocery to pick up extras to give some colleagues and in laws. Of course the HHBC got original stuffs air flown by Anay from Osaka.
ReplyDeletehahaha.. in fact people also go to the 100 Yen shop in Japan to get the souvenirs lah, it's the same.. those who received won't know lah, haha!! anyway, nice also wat those things in 100 Yen shop and DAISO~~ i like to shop there to see innovative things lah.. :D
DeletePhoto L: I wonder if they have trees inside the Sky Tree?? It does not even look like a tree in any way. You should have posed and used your finger tip to touch its tower tip too like all those Tom, Dick & Harry taking photos. Muahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteI kena tipu in Osaka to visit its impressive Sky Gardens!!!! We went and saw not a single leaf inside the rooftop of the building. It was more of an eco recycling exhibition place. That made me think that they love to imagine things like Ultraman and Godzilla!! Now have Sky gardens and Sky Tree!!!
i didn't show you the photo, how do you know i didn't do that?? muahahaha, Thambee is nobody but just another Ali, Muthu dan Ah Kow nia wokay?? BTW, i have no idea why it's called SkyTree, maybe when you go nearer, it really looks like a tree?? i just see it from far, so cannot judge dei~~ :D
DeletePhoto M: Wow! it costs 800 YEN to enter? That's daylight robbery! The sky looked very nice in blue with cotton whites!
ReplyDelete800 Yen to go up to the first observatory deck i think, and pay somemore to go further up.. just like the Eiffel Tower in Paris lah.. yes, i love the nice weather when i was there, all sunny and bright~~ :)
DeletePhoto N: talking about hamsap alleys, now I could guess why this kuku bird never blogged about his frequent working trips to China!!! He had too many forbidden places to blog. Anyway he is blardy lazy blogger lah....full stop.
ReplyDeleteI think the Neon Lights in Osaka's nightlife is more impressive than Tokyo unless Thambee didn't go to the most happening places at all! The one square in Osaka shocked me with its neon lights flicking in 360 degrees and I would say it looked better than Times Square in Manhattan.
yalah, i think after he has censored his hamsap photos, he has left nothing to blog about his China trip, wakakakaka.. errr, i didn't know, i just follow my friend to whatever places he brought us lah.. or maybe the photo quality are not good enough, i shall go and see One Square if i go Osaka in the future..
DeletePhoto O: Oh! Tempura meals, anay like!!! I always order this wherever I dine in KL. Gone are the days I would gulp down trays of raw fishes. I got scared by the reports showing worms being hatched in the human brains. Bluek!
ReplyDeletehmmm, i won't really order tempura rice or sashimi rice.. i am more into beef rice or curry katsu rice.. that's why i think i have consumed lots of rice in Japan, perhaps my one month's quota of rice intake back home~~ :D
DeletePhoto P: Thambee you damn clever to make Fing Fing pose like a real monkey!!! The way he laid down and relaxed could change APA Hotel's tagline - Even The Wildest Monkeys Snooze Here.
ReplyDeleteThambee, thanks for trailing me today! I had never laughed while commenting, knowing Thambee is replying on the spot within minutes!!!!
