    Hong Kong Day 1 | Arrival Day

    Hong Kong Day 1 | Arrival Day






    Hello, Hong Kong. It's my first time for a ver long time. I'm so glad I went with my sisters because I'm positive it wouldn't be so nice alone. I guess it's that kind of place.







    Airport





    Can I just say that I'm glad we went on our own and not made land arrangements because we probably wouldn't be able to use it. Or how does that work?









    It was so foggy when we arrived and it really added character to the city. It was awesome! This is actually a shot from a random building in Hong Kong when we were kind of lost. 








    My sisters adulting. This is one purpose of our visit actually. To teach my sisters how to adult! Also, DISNEY, duh. Also, everything!






    Yes.







    Looking delicious! We were so close to buying some of these but I remember my friends saying that they may look good but they don't taste as good. Generally speaking. 







    A picture a sweet lady took in exchange of us taking theirs. 







    Our neighborhood is acually very interesting. I'm kind of okay with us having to live there for 5 days. Sure I kind of want to live elsewhere next time but yeah. 







    First proper meal in HK









    After meal, we went to Victoria Harbour, took pictures, then went home. 







    TEA BEFORE HOME





    I just came to know that this is a popular brand to get tea from but it was actually not over the top. The tea shop I got my second milk tea from was nicer.










    Our first day was kind of a mess. It rained for quite a while at night and we didn't have a choice but to go to the HARBOUR anyway because we don't have another time available to watch the light show. LUCKILY, it stopped just about a minute before the show started. We enjoyed the light show! It was free, bright, and colorful! That's all!

    Universal Studios Japan

    March 15, 2019 0
    Universal Studios Japan

    I mean, can we just appreciate the fact that it’s my first time going to Universal Studios! Like, yas! I have been a fan of Harry Potter as long as I can remember. Actually, I am kind of late in the trend because I’ve only been a fan when I was in second year college. And yes, the year the first Deathly Hollows movie was released. That drew me to it because we all know I didn’t understand much from the movie so I decided to backtrack. Hahaha so anyways. I was hooked since then and man, I know everything now! And I wouldn’t forgive myself if I leave Japan and not experience USJ. And so I went. Actually it’s the main reason I went to the Kansai area. Okay the USJ trip. 












    In general, it was not as aesthetically pleasing as Disneyland but it was still beautiful. I guess the gloomy weather made it a little bit gloomier so yeah. 



















    The Wizarding World though!!! I liked! And I would definitely go there again just for that! Also to ride the ones that I missed!  














    I bought one in this souvenir container and the other in disposable cup.




    Hogwarts, I'm home.






    Butterbeer!! I had two of these. I should have had five to be honest but it’s not something you’d think if you were living that day because it’s too sweet. 









    Slytherin Represent! 








    The tita in me was dizzy AF after all the rides and stuff but it didn’t stop me from riding the Hogwarts ride thing twice. It was sooo realistic and it made me really feel that I was in Hogwarts! I liked it. 








    Also rode the Flight of Hippogriff! 




    KEEPER OF THE KEYS








    What I liked about USJ is its Single Rider lane! I mean, going alone is one thing but going alone and waiting in line alone is another so I’m really thankful that I don’t have to wait in line as much as them people with friends. Posting this because I rode this ride with no problem.








    FOOD








    The food!! It’s actually not soooo good good but it was okay. Three Broomsticks will always be a go to place for me! It’s a little expensive though but okay. 











    I wasn’t able to ride everything actually. I think I missed five major rides two of it being closed due to maintenance that day. I should do better! 












    At night, the Hogwarts projection thingy happened. It was very nice. Not as magical as Disney’s though but it was beautiful! Also, the parade was cancelled for some reason. I was kind of looking forward to that one because I heard only good things about it. But oh well. Next time! 











    All in all I am very impressed with the theme park! I should definitely go again next time with my sisters!  I recommend you go if ever you’re in the area. That’s all!

    Hey, Kobe!

    March 06, 2019 0
    Hey, Kobe!
    Kobe. I actually didn't plan on going here at first but ended up going last minute because I had the afternoon free. Lucky!








    I actually went here to eat Kobe Beef where it really originated but failed because there were a lot of places to choose from so I didn't choose. Ate something else instead.






    Kobe is okay.





    I heard it's so beautiful at night though but I didn't stay that long because I think I was there around 1-ish and the lights turn on around 5 so I decided not to stick around because I got nothing to do tbh. I'm so sure I'm doing this all wrong though but my first timer self told me to just say goodbye and go.








    I was disappointed. I mean, I'm so sure it doesn't supposed to taste like that almost but whatever. 









    I was actually supposed to ride this thing but didn't pursue. Nobody else but a couple was in so I was like, nope. Also, they were playing love songs! That would be awkward. Also, as you may have noticed, it was kind of cloudy because it was raining so the view was not that good from below so I don't think it would be much different way up. 










    Saw this on my way back to Central Osaka. Oh well. Can't relate. I want to be back here soon! With a better plan of course. I guess that because it's so sudden, I wasn't as prepared as I'd like to be so the places I went to are probably not the places a normal tourist would want to go so...Also, KOBE BEEF. That's all!

    Osaka Castle

    March 03, 2019 0
    Osaka Castle
    My first time. I knew that I wouldn't be back here as soon as I want to so I went there. It was awesome. Awesome in a sense that it looks really good! Man, so much history going on there. I didn't stay long though because I went to Kobe! Post about it coming soon!







    I remember back when I was younger, I saw this gold plated castle in our living room and I was like, I have to see that castle in person! So you know, I’m like living the dream, aye!






    ICONIC




    War




    Osaka, everyone.








    Being my carnivore self




    Kind of tough. I mean, I've had more tender meat for less than 700 yen so I guess I was kind of disappointed? Not so much! But you know! 






    Reflection







    So when I got home, I went to the gold plated display and I found out it wasn't the Osaka Castle. Oh well. Hahaha it was Kinkaku-Ji at Kyoto. Man, that's why it's gold plated. Coz Kinkaku-Ji is gold you know. Stups. I'm still glad I went though. 






    Girl, she early!



    That's all!
