Tokyo Sky Tree

Tokyo Sky Tree October 02, 2018 0

Tokyo Sky Tree. One of the two most well known towers in Japan. Tokyo Tower being the other of course. I bet you already know that though. Anyways, It’s actually my first time here and I thought I’d bring the sisters whilst they’re in town so...leggo!

I actually went after work so imagine how exhausted I was but it was all good. I don’t really mind as long as I go with my crew.

My Crew

Always humbled by observatoriew like this. I don’t know. It makes me realize how insignifant I am in a larger sense of things. My goodness.

Sisters

We really hurried because I wanted to see Tokyo in the afternoon until night. I bet you it’s like buy one take one free!

Sunset

Tokyo Tower

Gorgeous!

Classical something they had going on when we went. I don’t have an idea to be honest. Not our generation obviously. That’s all!

Yas

Gorgeous at night!

Unlike the Tokyo Tower, the Sky Tree is actually colorful at night. Me likey. The Tokyo Tower is more classic looking though!

I suggest you check it out if you have the chance. I don’t know if I’d be back here soon though. I mean, you don’t really check places like this regualarly. Say maybe in 10 years time. Ciao!

Disney Sea 2018 Baby

Tokyo Disneysea August 30, 2018 0

I know this is like the inexcusably late but then again, late is acceptable here. We do late here. I want to share with y’all my 2018 Disney experience. Leggo!

We went on a pretty bad weather because I didn’t have any other day available and I don’t really want to risk missing this one so off we went.

sisters!

marching band

I miss having brassy hair lol

Disney Sea being awesome

It will always be a pleasure to go back. I don’t think I would be going back for a while though. My sister said we should wait at least 5 years to return so that we would miss it. Okay, then.

Easter

First Parade

I have no idea what this is but took a picture anyways.

Mikie the Explorer. Can I just say?? When I was a lot younger, people would tease me Dora because of my hair. But I realize that I like it. Come on, like, can you do half the things Dora does? Nope. STFU.

I feel like taking picture in this area became mandatory. Oh well. It’s cute kaya! Dangerous though. Smells like gas in here.

Disney

Seeing Disney on a gloomy has its charms

Little Mermaid

What beauty

With Disney Sea’s European vibes again.

Our long lost mermaid sister. To be honest, we’re killing the terno theme we have going on.

This. Cute.

Tower of Terror though! Closed. This is like my favorite ride and I just came to know that this, and Journey to the Center of the Earth are closed the time we visited. How rude.

Under the Sea

It was our first time to try the Toy Story Mania attraction and goodness gracious! It was soooooo fun! We rode it 3 times. Competitiveness runs in the blood fo sure! My sister Mika is unstoppable. She was cussing 99% of the time.

Also, this might be my favorite view there ever. To be honest, the only reason I may want to visit Italy. Also the ruins but whatevs. Ciao!

Nakameguro @ Day Time

Wanderlust April 22, 2018 0

And I’m back indeed. I was actually thought twice about this but then I remembered that this would actually be my last Spring in Japan so I guess why not?

Just like predicted, most of the Sakura already fell from its tree and yeah I guess that one is another thing to look forward to.

I also went there with a new camera. Will blog about it shortly after this.

Man, I was so red. Can I just say? I had a very dramatic encounter before this trip and I was so relieved so it was kind of nice walking around.

So pink!

There were ducks! Soo nice.

Soo nice.

Also, this day was probably the last nice day to visit the place for Sakura viewing. Like, if you’re late for this whole thing, the day I went was probably the latest you can go!

the sakura fall I’m talking about

Yas. Gyu Tan is life.

Moke’s! I always go here during Sakura season. I was gonna let go of it this year but I was like, no! So despite the opening hour moved to a later time, I waited. Nothing dramatic though lol it was moved for like an hour.

I got this!

Nakameguro @ Night 2018

Wanderlust April 20, 2018 0

I went to Nakameguro because you know, about time I take a break from all the work that I’ve been doing. I went there at around 4 in the afternoon and it was my first time going there when it’s very crowded and festive. What else do I have to say?

Definitely very different than just going alone. But also kind of nice because you get to enjoy the view with the rest of the crowd. You know what I mean?

I had to go to this. Because if I wait for my next off, it wouldn’t be this pretty anymore.

FLY ME TO THE MOON

I just realized I said it’s different that just going alone when I still went alone only at different time. LOL.

This is very clever to me. No?

I had oysters! Actually thought they’d be oyster shots when I ordered them but this was very good too!

SPARKLING WINE

The wine was not even good but the whole idea of it is very charming. Strawberries were very sour too! Put them both together is not any good but when you add walking around Nakameguro in the equation, quite fine.

Nakameguro River

Spring

Oh you know, the thought that I won’t be here in Japan next Spring is kind of haunting. Life must go on, I guess? I’ll be back for you, Japan Spring! I will! Remember that. I hope Spring in the US is fine.
