SHIKIMIKIE

My sister and I went a day before Christmas which is one of the worst days to go probably because Japanese don’t usually celebrate the Christmas season with family. It’s more with friends so they tend to flock amusement parks and such. 

I think this trip was my first time riding this thing. I have been to Yomiuri land maybe 3 times? And yeah this ride was interesting. We didn’t get wet but I have seen others who were not so lucky. 

They had turkey leg which 

DECEMBER 24 2021

This Kare rice is so cheap! I also ordered a mocktail which is not bad! If I remember correctly, this Kare rice is under 1000 yen which is rare given that it is inside an amusement park.  

That's all guys! I really had fun celebrating Christmas Eve with my sister! 

We went to Ebina after and ate at our favorite steak restaurant. Hungry Tiger. I remember the last time we ate there and it was still with dad. I will always remember this place because this is like our go to steak restaurant ever since I was a child. I may have over ate this visit but hey.






Can I just share that this is probably the best bento I’ve had this trip. I didn’t each much bento per se but yeah this is the best. It’s curry rice and namba chicken from 7/11.






We went to Daiso to finalize our pasalubongs for the whole barangay and my mom was like, let’s eat at a good ramen place. 

We ended up here. My mom hated the restaurant but I used to eat here a lot with my co workers and I don’t hate it. The tantanmen was a-okay! But I admit that there are other better places we could have wrapped up our Japan trip. Oh well. 

Few days later, we returned to replace the fresh flowers with artificial ones because my mom and I wouldn’t be back so soon. The fresh flowers were still fresh but you know, no one will really replace it once we’re out of Japan. So yeah there’s that.

We also stopped at this chicken place where I asked mama just to share but she insisted and bought two still. It was not that good. It’d be perfect for sharing though. I don’t know. Maybe because I just had onigiri and coffee before I had this but it’s too much in my opinion. It’s not bad though. Still okay. So to the kimono place we go! Actually we stopped at Don Quijote where we bought a lot of stuff still but anyways.

The 500 yen chicken. Can I just say that it is now discouraged to walk while eating. I mean, it’s always common courtesy for the Japanese people to find a table or something but I guess it’s that time where everyone is always in a rush and it is more acceptable to eat while walking now but anyways back to the point. They have signage discouraging people to walk while eating. Maybe because of the pigeons? They tend to poop everywhere maybe so yeah I’m not sure really.

My mom took a lot of decent photos! In fairness to her. DSLR is intimidating I know, but my mom nailed it. I was giving her attitude for no reason at all! My goodness.





If you’re gonna rent a Kimono, I suggest going to places like this because there are lots of places you can have your picture taken given you’ll go early because not much photobombers of course.

I want to say sorry to my mom though, I feel like I’ve given her a lot of attitude. I don’t know why. She didn’t do anything per se. I was just sooo moody that time that even I, myself noticed. Sorry mama.

So...as you know, when I go to trips, I can’t not visit Theme Parks! This should have been my full time job! PS: Not even my part time job but maybe someday!

When we bought ticket, we were already discouraged by the lady at the counter because she said that the park was crowded. Oh well. My mom said we should have left the house at like 5am or something. We left around 7 I guess? And arrived around 10.  We were only able to avail 3 fast pass attractions I guess and we weren't able to use 1 because we were 5 minutes late for it. I love Japan. 

Me and my girl Shella

Can we just take a moment and appreciate mom's red outfit? Just sayin'

Tower of Terror

I think this is just the second time Shella and mama met and it's an easy day to be honest. No awkward moments, no bad vibes whatever so it was awesome. I mean, it's not like we're at the same age, I know. But still! If you don't click, you don't. You just don't. AND WE CLICK! 

I'm no way a photographer, right? But with a DSLR camera, photos turn out to be a lot nicer, don't you agree? 

DISNEY SEA is just nice

WHERE DREAMS DO COME TRUE INDEED

My mom ate turkey. She didn't eat last time because she said she didn't like it or something but when she ate this, she finished eating in like less than 5 minutes. Amazing. It was a lovely experience hanging out with my mother and also to have spent my day with my long time sis. 

My mom didn't ride as much and she didn't really enjoy the night parade as much too lol but yeah I think she was able to have a full grasp of the park and yeah that's the purpose of the trip for her I guess. I had fun though! I mean, I can't wait to be back here with the OG DISNEY babies and just have a different perspective than the last few times. No regrets! I would have loved for mom to ride the Venetian Gondola though and for Shella to ride the Toy Story ride but maybe that's for next time! Yay! Or you know, Fuji Q is always nice. WHO knows maybe there will be 4 of us there next time! Or 5. Hi mom! 

Okay so Japan didn’t undergo lockdown of some sort but these mindful companies did close for the sake of many. Hello, Philippines. Anyaresayo? Anyways. That’s what happened. I’m sooo sooo glad I was able to go to DisneySea again! It’s been a wild while! Hope you enjoyed!
