I shall see if I managed to update on the trip while lying on this fluffy bed and tunggu husband back from work. Haha. Oh yes, we are still in JB.
Although everything was so last minutes, we enjoyed Japan to the bit. It was my second time in Tokyo whilst husband's first time.
For us Tokyo is a fine place, dengan budaya dan masyarakat mereka yang teratur dan straight forward, I guess our journey is nothing than smooth.
Jan 29th, 2015 (Khamis) - Day 1
Flying with Air Asia X via KLIA2 at 1420. Landed at Haneda International Airport, Japan at 2230 their time. Japan cepat 1 jam dari kita. GMT +9. So sampai sana waktu Malaysia 9.30 malam, tapi waktu mereka dah 10.30 malam. Flight time 7hours and 5mins.
Tips : If fly dengan Air Asia X, sila pre book meals, seats and if possible kalau tak larat nak duduk tersepit lama, ambil lah hot seat. Hot seat ialah seat yang paling depan every row. So ada ruang kelegaan kaki yang lebih selesa untuk melunjur. Kalau bawa orang tua or baby, memang advisable ambil seats ni. Sebab baby perlukan bassinet throughout the flight.
And yes, of course you have to pour more money for the above.
Okay, since kami arrive Japan lambat dan flight back to KL pun near midnight so we decided to stay in an apartment. And it was the best decision ever! Hahaha, will tell about it later.
After browsing and surveying for days, we opted to stay at Ikebukuro, Tokyo. Reason being was; the place is very near to the trains station and Ikebukuro Station antara station yang penting sebab pertukaran banyak train di situ. Di Japan, ada banyak jenis train dan routes and it's really confusing.
Selain tu, the place also very convenient dengan malls and tempat makan. Plus point, there's one halal restaurant just 5 minutes away. And it's Malaysian, people!
Rate wise is around RM380++/night and all worth it because its like we own the whole apartment. Fully furnished with heater/aircond, kitchen, washing machine and all.
From Haneda Airport, we took Keikyu Line (JR) to Ikebukuro. We need to change train at Shinagawa. Train cost us JPY670/person. 35 to 40 minutes journey. Option ini yang paling murah dan senang since we arrive quite late kan, and Ikebukuro station is just like 7 minutes walk to our apartment.
Note : JPY100 = RM3 (lebih kurang)
Okay, so dah sampai. After whole drama tarik bags from the station and finding our apartment dalam cuaca yang Subhanallah sangatlah sejuk, it's a warp for Day 1. If that may consider as Day 1. Hahaha.
Jan 30th, 2015 (Jumaat) - Day 2.
Woke up to the snowfalls.
Oh my god.
I memang teruja dan jakun okay.
I've been to few four seasons countries, alhamdulillah. Memang pernah rasa dan tengok snow, tapi till the date I tak pernah rasa snowfalls yang macam Merry Christmas tu ya. Tak pernah. So bila I bangun and selak langsir, I macam terpaku few seconds before I berlari ke katil dan kejut husband.
I. Berlari. And. I. Goncang. Husband. I.
Yes.
I gegar gegar sambil terjerit jerit;
"Sayang bangun sayang, you're not gonna miss this. It's snowing! It's snowing!"
Terpisat-pisat lah hamba Allah tu bangun sebab terkejut! Tapi dia tenung sekejap saja, then sambung tidur balik! Hahaha.
View from our apartment! Ah, bestnya!
Then kitorang bersiap-siap and it's almost petang bila kita decide nak ke Akihabara. Sebabnya kitorang mengumpul kekuatan nak keluar dalam cuaca sejuk dan windy!
From Ikebukuro we took train to Akihabara. They call it as Electric City. Kat sini mostly orang cari barang electric and electronic, gadget dan toys kot?
Strolling around the road and husband end up buying miniature cars. Yeah. My husband.
Okay pardon all my photos. All are selfies BTW. I pasang monopod at my phone so semua gambar memang kalau tak ada muka I, mesti ada husband I. My husband carry along his DSLR so all good photos are with him. Once he update his blog, I will put the link here okay?
Meanwhile please bare with all my selfie photos. Kasihan siapa yang tersesat masuk blog I cari info on Japan confirm terpaksa tengok muka I. Sorry people! I'll try to feed as many info as I could ya.
I shall stop first and to be continue later ya?
