End of another trip...

Our last day in Tokyo...

Haha do we look like 3 poor Singaporeans who can only afford instant food at a convenient store?

The journey from the hotel to Narita airport took us almost 2 hours!!

Playground in the transit area...

Sunshine City @ Ikebukuro

Today is our 2nd last day in Japan and Mummy has pre-warned that it will be full of walking & waiting as she will be doing her final checklist on her ‘acquisitions’

As usual, I am always READY…

For Daddy, we will have to depend on FOOD to keep him going…

We passed by a florist on the way back to the hotel and decided to give Mummy a surprise on the streets of Tokyo.

*Back to hotel for some rest & nap*

Wakie! Its time to head over to Sunshine City. We took the JR for the last time to Ikebukuro Station. It was raining when we got there…

First stop – Amlux, with the latest cars and new vehicle technology. Sadly we didn’t manage to stay long as they close at 7pm.

Next stop was to a famous indoor food theme park known as Namja Town. It is divided mainly into 3 sections – Gyoza world, Ice-cream world and Dessert World… Yes, full of YUMMY selections!

Something 'cute' we found in Shinjuku Station - Ready-to-eat Dried Prawn (Taste yucky!)

Asakusa

We woke up late again today :( so no choice gotta eat at yucky Jurin.


*Jurin is the only restaurant out of the 3 in the hotel that operates till 11am.*

Daddy insisted on taking pictures with the latest design Shinkansen and JR train. *buay tahan*

My folks came to this place 5 years ago during their honeymoon. *so much fond memories* And now here I am with them…

Lunch was at a small Japanese restaurant along the famous Nakamise shopping street. I insisted on feeding myself and Mummy was so happy when I insisted on feeding myself… I have indeed grown up to be a more independent boy!

We took a boat from Asakusa Pier that cruises along the popular Sumida River, to Hinode Pier.

Too tired to squeeze with the rest of the crowd during peak hours, we decided to pack dinner back to the hotel room. What a spread!!

O.o.o.o.o.o.odaiba

Father and Son still refusing to wake up…



Start of the day with breakfast as usual…

History of the places that we are visiting today…

Daiba, literally meaning "fort", refers to some of the man made islands in the Bay of Tokyo, which were constructed in the end of the Edo Period (1603-1868) for the city's protection against attacks from the sea. During the extravagant 1980s, a spectacular redevelopment of the islands into a futuristic business district was started, but development was critically slowed down after the burst of the "bubble economy" in the early 1990s.

Ferris Wheel

Erh… Daddy, you don’t even top up ezlink card in Singapore, are you sure you can do it?!

Ameyoko & Ginza

Today has been set aside for goodies shopping to bring back to Singapore.

The best place will have to be… Ameyoko aka Ueno Flea Market...







We took the JR train on the Yamanote Line, heading towards Ueno Station. Guess we were too early for them as most of the shops were still in the midst of getting ready for business when we reach.

Various products such as golf equipments, cosmetics, fresh fish, dried food and spices are sold at bargain prices here. They are consider as CHEAP (according to Japan’s standard)

The seasoned scallops are Daddy and Mummy’s all time favourite! Without fail, they grabbed many packets of it!

The end result… one full box of food!

Next up... GINZA – Here we come!

Some pictures to share...

Hakuhinkan Toy Park…
