Japan Spring Trip 2009 - Day 1
Finally am updating Day 1's stuff now!!!
AH!!!!!
Enjoy!
Day 1.
We reached the airport at around 3am. Much thanks to my Dad for sending me and Ariana down to the airport where we met up with Ina and her parents. Did the early check-in and went for breakfast. Had normal toast with eggs and a cup of milo~ xD It was average, I guess?
At around 4, we decided to head in and walk for a while, so we bid farewell to Ina's parents.
I had wanted to get a cream @ Guardian, but it was closed at that time,so I didn't manage to buy it.
We ended up walking as our gate was at the very end.
Took some pics and then we went to do our last blogging in Singapore before taking the flight to Narita~
Boarded the plane @ around 5 plus.
Plane took off before 6, which was good!
Apparently, something funny did happen on the plane.
There was this American guy, who just board the plane and sleeps instantly. AND!!! the worst thing to happen is that he keeps on snoring non-stop that it makes the people around him can't sleep, which was pretty irritating. But, it ended up with me and Ina giggling non-stop @ that guy! Ina said that it may be due to his size + sleeping habits. Flight entertainment was not bad. Watch abit on Madagascar 2 and then went to sleep.
Me and Ina took some funny photos before heading to sleep as it was almost a 6 hours plus flight to Narita.
Ariana's messy hair due to static! xDxD
Ina and me acting like weird ninjas! xD
And finally!!!!
We have reached!!!!!!! YAHOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Once the plane touched down, we hurried over the the ladies. But before that, something happened!! o_O
There was this lady who was walking wobbly and Ina helped her out of the plane, but the woman kept saying that she was fine and she wanted to head back quickly. And then, the staff over at the airport had a wheelchair with them as they had gotten a notice informing them that someone needed the wheelchair, so I went to tell the staff, but they ignored me. o_O Then, this guy who also helped the lady told the person holding on the wheel chair to come over immediately.
We left after the man helped the woman, and then went on to the immigration and collection of luggage. Took the NEX over to Tokyo.
Feeling really tired, coz of that man who snored on the flight. All thanks to him!
Took some crazy pics on the NEX train too!
Me advertising Cola~ xD
We dropped off at Tokyo Station and then changed to Shinkansen to head over to Odawara~
The weather was super cold, especially with the strong winds. I was feeling super cold back then!!!
All of us bought a bento onboard the Shinkansen as we hadn't had a proper lunch since touchdown.
Bento is super cold lah!......
But it was okie, I guess?
The Shinkansen ride took about 40 mins, so we had to finish the food quickly and drop off over at Odawara.
After reaching Odawara, we had to take another train that goes to Hakone Yumoto.
So while waiting for the train, we decided to camwhore again! xD
Once we reached Hakone Yumoto, we had to transfer to another train down to Tounosawa, where our onsen is located at.
It was pretty out of the way and the way to Tounosawa is really.....SCARY!!!!
Anyway, when we reach Tounosawa, we saw little sakuras that are white!!!
xD
Pretty right? Those Sakura buds~
KYA!!!
And the river~ It was awesome!!!
We took the pictures and then headed to our onsen.
Followed the directions and we went down the hill.
Finally we found the place, as it was tough carrying the heavy luggages with us.
BUT!!!!!!!!!
We ended up at the other outlet O_O
Luckily the shop owner was nice to tell us where the other outlet was.
We're pretty shacked from carrying the luggages up and down and trains.
After climbing up, we finally found the onsen!! WHEEEE!!!!
LIKE FINALLY!!!
Got our room and it was on the first floor, which was cool lah! No need to carry the luggage up and down! xD
Then after unpacking for awhile, we went for onsen.
Haha! I guess we're the most noisy bunch of customers ever loh!
Talk non-stop. Even the Japanese lady was quiet. Haha! Went to the outdoor onsen!!
xD
Maybe I'm not used to it.
But the indoor onsen is good lah.
After that, we even asked the Japanese lady to teach us how to tie the obi around the yukata. xD
It was fun wearing their yukata
Then we head off for dinner!
DINNER WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME I TELL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some egg thingy!
Raw beef!!
Their barley miso which was super nice!
They even give us a second serving lah!!! YAY!!!
Lastly is their Yuzu Sherbet
Super yummy!!
After dinner, we head back to our room and then discuss on how we're going back the next day and what was the itinerary like.
The girls ended up sleeping early while I continued to hog on the TV and watched 'Himitsu no Arashi-chan' until I sleep.
Thats it for the first day!!!!!!!!
AH!!!!!
Enjoy!
