I went to Japan from 28th Oct till 4th Nov with my family. It was really an eye opener for me! The visa to Japan for Malaysian is the toughest to get, I still need to get a school letter, my mum's bank account, her occupation, my birth cert and etc... On top of that, i need to sacrifice my weekend in S'pore. Definitely I need to be excited.
(Clockwise: me, mum, ah gong, ah mah, aunt)

The first food we tried was Takoyaki with octopus inside. It is really nice!

Then there are lots of vending machines, with all kinds of drink. I think it is a good idea cuz it is more hygienic and it can save a lot of manpower. We should learn from them in this case.The second thing we should learn from them will be having a clean and an advanced technology in the toilet facilities. They have technology which allow you to wash your butt, to clean or heat up the toilet seat during winter, and flushing sound to cover whatever unpleasant sound when you do your business. Toilet is a place where we must visit at least once a day, so why not make it a more pleasant place to be in?

Lastly, I have observed that their service attitude is fantastic. They would smile naturally and say "Arigato" to each and every of their costumer regardless of their age, gender, size and look! They will also acknowledge you once you enter their shop. They will not pull a long face even when you don't buy anything from them. For this, I salute to them!

We also took picture with the Geisha, cool right? You can see that my grandfather is standing at the background and refused to take picture with us. I found out that he thought the Geisha looks like a ghost and would haunt him after that! Haha...
Their scenery was beautiful too.





















The fantastic part is Mount Fuji. The tallest mountain in Japan with the height of 3773m. Isnt it fantastic to see Mt Fuji from your window when you woke up in the morning?
Their food was sumptuous too. Usually we will eat Udong and rice with Teriyaki and miso soup. The most food we ate in Japan was ice-cream! Their ice-cream is very soft and with many different taste like green tea and chestnut. Yummy...
I really enjoyed my trip this time and would keep all this beautiful memory in my mind =)
