Japan 2013

My ticket is quite expensive as it was a last minute decision to travel before going to Philippines. Scoot Airlines for my flight from Singapore then 2hrs stopover at Taiwan then Tokyo, Japan.

I have only 1 day in Tokyo so when I arrived in Narita Airport early morning I straight checked in to my hotel near airport.
As a kid at heart I really wanted to go Disneyland... I took the NEX Train to Tokyo.
The Tokyo MRT was so big that I will be lost if I was not given the direction by my friends.

*** I should have gone to Disney Sea World as the Disneyland Tokyo not that much different from Disneyland Hongkong.

NEX Line going to Tokyo

Early morning the next day, I travelled domestic flight from Tokyo to Osaka. There a bullet train from Tokyo to Osaka but due to my limited time and budget I took the 1hr plane ride.

Then from Osaka Airport, I took the bus going to Nara to meet up my friends (Jaja & Ogong)

Tempozan Ferris Wheel

Osaka Castle

We tried the capsule bed in Osaka then transferred to a hotel room just to be safe as I have luggage that wont fit in there lockers.

For my Day 4 & 5, I roam around Osaka alone. I sent to Tempozan Ferris Wheel and Osaka Aquarium. Since USJ is just in the opposite of the river. I took the ferry to USJ.

The next day, I went to that Osaka castle and just roam around Osaka City.

It was nice experience. Next time I should stay longer.
