Pics from Jap

It has been a week since I came back from Japan. Too many pics to upload. 500 pics for a 7D5N trip for a country which is thousand kilometers away, too little really..

Me and Walt Disney!

Disneyland Hotdogs! SOOO delicious!

Me at Kyoto Shinkansen station, getting ready for bullet ride.

I looked funny I know. The best meal. Its a must to wear yukata for dinner. -Mt Fuji-
I seldom eat pork but this is really good.

Some parks I don't recall the name but got ALOT of flowers.

Waiting for cruise around Lake Ashi. Hong on the left.

What I had almost everyday.

Dragged this poor kitty to our side with some kids crying for their mum wanting to take pics with her. Bleh! Me first! -Universal Studio-

The place where electronic stuff are cheap like mad. -Osaka-

The Da Vinci Heat

Da Vinci Da Vinci.. The whole world seem to have a common topic suddenly.

Because of how this movie is all about and the involvement of Christianity and history etc, I bought the book. It was indeed a very interesting book. But at some point it can be very misleading. Well it depends how well you know history and the foundation of Christianity. Honestly, I've got nothing against Jesus Christ and the religion. I believe everyone has the right to believe what they have faith in.

Whether the fact about Mary Magdelene or Jesus Christ was married are true or not, it doesn't bother me. If the truth has to be revealed, it would have done so few thousand years ago. What we believe now is far more important. Just like what the author Dan Brown mentioned in his book, how if we suddenly tell the Buddhist that Buddha doesn't come out from lotus. Same applies to Christian. I can understand why they react differently to this movie, trying to be defensive. I totally understand my fellow Christian friends, you're just trying to protect what you believe.

The bottom line is ITS JUST A MOVIE.

Konichiwa!

Japan was fun man!! Really fun. Reliance tour has been good so far. Tour guide was great. People were alright except for a few idiots.

Not only did the trip confirmed the picture of Japan in my mind was correct but far more than that. Clean and planned city, civilised except that I was struggling to communicate with them. I guess I've never used hand language so much before. I love their toilets so much. Imagine a toilet bowl who wash your ass after you shit. Cool.

Infact, I've learnt to tolerate with people more. From the age group of 25-65 and from different states and background. It was rather amazing. Let's start from the people. They were most couples. Old couples, honeymoon couple, not-so-old couple, young couple who pretended to be husband and wife and couple aunties or uncles who travel together. Of course We were the youngest. Hehe..

The itinerary was good though I wish to have more time for shopping.

Weather was great. Mt Fuji was a lil chilling but Hakone was the worst. It felt like snow mountain when I was just wearing baby T and a thin jacket.

There were this pair of uncles that we really don't like. The first impression tells all. He saw me in the airport at the counter where we supposed to wait. First thing he asked me was:" You from Ipoh ah?" What the hell. I'm not saying Ipoh people not good la, but I was quite offended by the way he ask. Which part of me smell like Ipoh?

Throughout the trip, he kept talking to us cos we were the youngest. He talked to us as if we just came out from the well. Know nothing. Well, for short he think we're stupid. Damn this kind of people kept telling us what we should or shouldn't do. Hate him for being so show off where he had been all these years.

I kept quiet sometimes cos I'm not like him, like to show off. Thank God he left on the 3rd day because of a lame excuse. The trip wasn't what he expect and he decided to venture himself with the other uncle who came along. We suspected they went to" jump aeroplane" which means to work illegally in Japan. Funny thing is all the way they didn't buy any souvenirs and they know to leave the group at that point. Even more funny is the whole kampung came to send them off..

Oh well, glad that they left. And we're as happy as before..

Here I come, Japan!

I'll be on my way to Japan in the next 5 hours. Yay!
I was so nervous. Maybe this time with friend, that's why I'm being nervous.
Which I normally never.
Will be back next Tuesday.

Oh ya, got 2 samans 2 days in a row.
Yesterday was parking.
Today I was stopped by a so-called traffic police because I was speeding.
First thing he asked me was: "Mau saman tak?" which means do you want a fine?
Duh! Of cos I said no. Then he wants 50 bucks and I misheard it as 20.
I gave him 20 and he said it wasn't the correct amount.
Mum hide all the big notes already.
Then showing him we've only got 39 when he wants 40.
He took the 39 and we're free again.

I was really disappointed. They call themseves P-O-L-I-S..
