My Tokyo Trip!

Oh my.... I haven't been blogging for more than 1 month! March is over like a flash! Been so busy for the whole month... like what's new right? Hahaha.....
Just came back from Hong Kong yesterday after spent 4 days there and here's some my Tokyo trip's pictures! I'll just let the pictures speak for itself!

I've also uploaded All my pictures to my FLICKR account, so can go take a look there for all the photos. Here are some photos to begin with!


Boo pretends to be the one going for the trip!


Our virgin trip to T3!

Wenn and Dulcy posing at the Restroom with a big area dedicated
for dolling up!
After almost 7 hrs of overnight flying and 2 hrs of Bus ride, we reached Ikebukuro's Crown Plaza Metropolitan Hotel. There were no rooms to checked it even though it's very close to 12pm already so we had to freshen up in the hotel's toilet and head out for official business! Very Sian lei! We had to fill our stomach so we head to the MOS burger opposite - all 13 of us!
I like the way they serve the food -
in a ratten basket instead of the plastic ones we have here.
I remembered years ago they were also using the plastic ones.
Looks like it's different now -even the fries had 2 pcs of Onion rings to go along!

After lunch, we had to go to Akabane to visit a suburban mall.
So we went to the subway station!
Look at the Subway lines - so complicated right?!

It was around 1plus therefore the trains are not so crowded!

An Ice-cream vending machine at the mall!
I'm going to have some!!!

I picked a cookie and peanut combo I think...

After we were done with the mall, we head back to Ikebukuro to check in!
There were alot of malls in Ikebukuro as well so our plans were to look at the shops around there for the day since we were quite exhausted from the plane ride. So after we had officially end our work for the day, it was a mad rush to SHOP!!! This is when all our feet began to start hurting!!!

After the shop began to start closing, we went to Q to have ramen at this place!
LayC has been telling me about this place from 3 years ago so I HAD to try it!!!

A very interesting way to show the illustration of their ramen.

Look at the Ramen!
Very delicious right!!!
We queued 20mins in the cold for this! It's so worth it I'm telling you!!!



The next day we head to Ueno! And since it was their first trip to Tokyo for some of them, we brought them to the Ueno Park to see if the Sakura trees are blooming!

We saw this stall once we step into the park and started running towards it!
So interesting - the coloured bananas!!!

I got 1 to share with the girls.
After I picked 1 stick, the owner took it from me and started drawing "faces" on the 2 bananas!
So funny! But it's quite ex ar - 300yen for 1.
Which was around S$4.30!

1 side is decorated with rainbow sprinkles.

The other side has faces!!!


Me with the cute nanas!

The sakuras are blooming!!!
We got so excited and all of us started taking pictures!
Us!!! With the beautiful sakuras!!!

Beautiful weather, beautiful flowers!

Us - with Angie and Janice!

I love Vending Machines!
The drinks there are so good! So convenient!
Big selections plus no Qs!

My sweet treat for lunchie!
The "Pon de Ring" - chocolate one!

The Matcha one with red bean filling!

So happy we have filled our stomach with yummy sweet treats from Mister Doughnut!
Seriously, the best doughnuts I have ever eaten!
Even better then the piping hot Krispy Kreme I had in '04!

Shibuya!

Drinking Ice Tea in Bio Cafe.
The tea comes hot - in a flask and a glass of ice and syrup.
The tea is supposed to be organic too!

Daikanyama at night!
This is my 3rd time at Daikanyama but 1st time at night.
The whole place just feel so different from the rest of Tokyo - not so crowded and feels very comfortable too. Except the things there are like Way too expensive!

Toyshop with lots of colourful Rody's

The tired tred girls - waiting for me while I shop inside Junie Moon!
