Haneda Airport






Model Show at Haneda --- the Shanghai-tang!

(Hey, stop it! Don't laugh.)

Like the atmosphere. The shops there are very "Japanese". Warning : for-your-eyes-only, due to the price... :-(

Ueno park 2




We went to a station nearby. There was an open-air market, selling all kind of stuffs, almost like a basak marlam. we bought "kow luck" from a stall. I enjoyed watching them selling their goods. Even the market was not so crowded, the stall-owners remain very cheerful, greeting everyone passers by. I admire their spirits.

Ueno Park





Tze Ying brought us to Ueno park in search of Cherry Blossom. Nice settings with lot of people enjoying the warm weather, birds and ducks are out showing off their colorful feathers too.

Saw a rare shocking pink Cherry Blossom at the park too.

There was even a magician showing his tricks, entertaining children. Very pleasing to observe the locals trying to put their life back to normal, despite of the unfortunate March 11 earthquake.

Japan, I wish you speedy recover!

Mount Fuji-KAwaguchiko town






Mt Fuji, The Mystery Mountain. "wah! I saw it! "just outside the cute train window when I reach there.
It was so lucky that morning, the weather was so fine, the air was clean and the mountain was so clear, neat, complete, n perfect.
We took pictures with cherry blossom, full bloom some more.
I tried the special Ramen from Mt Fuji, "the fat noodle ramen", it was a bit different from other, the noodle taste special, I like it so much.
What a wonderful trip we had, like a family gatheringggg.... wuh! Missed yew song. but Musashi joined in.
I will like to go back there one day, yet like to stay in one of the old Japanese hot springs inns , to feel the nature at the mountain, or may be let's climb up to Mt Fuji!

NIPPORI- the tomato shop


Japanese women still sew their own thing:- dresses for kids; skirts, households, decos, bags ......seeing, n reading about their creative ideas, it makes me wanting to sew again.
I started sewing when I was in secondary school, but stopped sewing since marriage, with the arrival of three active monsters, can't sew at all. It is time for me to pick it up again, I sew patchworks, purses, handbags, curtains and dresses.

Hawaii burger famous in Japan





Hawaii delicious burger-Kua'aina burgers Japan is one of our new discoveries. I liked it, because somehow the Tokyo version tastes nicer to me, better than the original ones at Hawaii, and the size is not that "America". I ordered the Avocado burger, the set menu delicious too.

Early morning walk



Strolled along a track next to Yotsuya station,it was lined with cherry blossom trees. However, there were less flowers as it passed its peak, but still beautiful," pinky pinky "along the riverside n pavement too.

Trip to Japan again



Ha ha! Sakura, cherry blossom here I come.
This was the first time , staying over night in an airport, in order to get a cheaper ticket.
Resting among 10+ airplanes, laying in a sofa bench, very quiet and comfortable. Initially, I was afraid of how to spend a night in airport thinking it will tough, or boring, but end up " not bad at all"It's another experience of traveling.

My BSF groupleader , Winnie.


So happy to have received a card from my leader, Winnie.
She is extremely generous in her kind words towards us, and always full of encouragement. She sets good examples to all of us; carry herself well and always look pretty and proper. Although she was ill before, but she have strong faith in God. She shared her experience with us , encourage us to be close to God.
Thank you God for sending me to her group, learning from her, and being strong in my belief.
