i love love love japan! :)
i wished i didnt have to come back..boo..
i cant really put it into words how much i love japan!
elise, i shall be your oh-we-adore-jappy-too-much buddy!
everything there's really really too nice..
from the food, the people, the cleanliest of the streets, the scenery, the shopping and even the toilets! (they had like heated toilet seats and water sprays)
I was very amazed at how they wrap up every item you purchase..
and i really meant EVERY SINGLE item..
so imagine that and an average of 5mins waiting time at the cashier counter..
yes, japanese are definitely not the most environmentally friendly people..
i was also very amused at how EVERYONE(males+females) carried an umbrella when it rained even if it's a slight drizzle..
and u hardly see anyone carrying those kind of foldable brollys, all of them are armed with those big walking stick kind...
though i must say they have very nice umbrellas..
you hardly see any rubbish bins
but yet you dont see even a piece of tissue paper on the streets
that's how clean the streets are
and apparently the tour guide told us they throw their rubbish in their handbags
anyway, i managed to see the cherry blossoms!
very beautiful indeed
and they were in full bloom!
i couldnt help but take like a million photographs of the flowers:)
and mt fuji was great too!
quite rare to see snow during spring
plus the weather was really good
not a single cloud covered the mountain
definitely a very rare sight!
the tour guide was excellent
she told us alot on the japanese culture which made me love japan even more!
plus shopping is really good in japan
but that's if you have like unlimited supply of cash..
and i swear the icecream there is superb
i ate green tea icecream almost everyday!
with mt fuji in the backgrd

on mt fuji

i wished sg had such pretty flowers!
i shall upload more photos soon!
