    JAPAN TRIP~~~

    ok i shall stop being lazy and post about my japan(kyushu)trip. Well i am really starting to miss being there with all the beautiful scenery and friends...but NEWAY i shall post some pics from day 1 to day 8 XD
    Its a pity that it is impossible to post all the pictures because we took around 1600-2000 pictures in total XP

    lalala before boarding XD

    ok we were already cam-whoring before take -off...

    On the way to our first destination~~

    i tink the traffic lights are so pretty X)

    There are actually many shops along the street leading to the shrine but we aparently didn't really have the time to shop X/

    ok this was an attempt to take a picture with us in the reflection but its abit too small to see without zooming...

    According to our guide the water was purposely made so dirty to prevent ppl from stealing the carps which are worth 1 million yen for each one o0 one fish is super ex, around 16000 sing...oh well..

    Ahaha i seriously tink that japanese kids are like the cutest XDXDXD
    Anyway, we were told that parents will bring their kids to the shrine when they are 3,5 and 7 yrs old X)

    hmm i wonder whether this is a real sumo or not...


    Ok at the robot square there are actually afew quite cool robots but the place was quite small, so most of us went elsewhere instead XP

    After lunch, we went to the kumamoto castle, the place is just so pretty!!!

    The paintings are made of gold!!!

    Isn't the view great??? XD well anyway it is at the top of the castle X)

    PL's head looks detached o0

    Group pic~~

    At the recycling place XD (i personally like this pic haha)

    Iris with the bottle cap painting X)

    This is the place where we had our lunch. The view at the back is very pretty XD

    Aren't the jackets colourful?

    Oh man what are the both of them doing o0

    pretty sunset... i don't think we will ever get this kind of view in singapore bah

    Dinner in kimono!

    hmm... by this time, the water flowing through the bridge was already getting lesser because in order to see the water flow, we were supposed to pay, but fortunately, some other tour groups already paid for it X)

    This is the place where we watched the puppet show and we were given alot of time to cam-whore XD

    Being lame XP

    so this was the next day at takachiho high school

    Taking group pic with our (cute) kendo instructor X)

    During the english class, we tried to communicate and it was amazing that we were actually still able to understand each other with our limited vocab

    We went to another shrine and the place looks quite surreal with all the trees surrounding it

    hmm can you spot the 3 bridges?

    lalala these were all formed naturally by water, rain etc

    super nice fountain at the back X)

    iris commented that jy looks as if she was going to eat me XP

    haha i can lift the boulder X))

    The poster is super kawaii~~~

    Well i think this car is super cool! at first we thought that it was just for show, but the car can actually move!!!

    The shop owner driving the car and he is not even afraid that people will actually steal from his shop

    We found out that it was our ottosan's birthday during our stay and we decided to draw to wish him happy birthday and leave our drawings for them to remember us XD So in total we drew around 6 pages!
    With ottosan before we said our goodbyes

    At Aso mountains

    Prettyyy~

    In the crater, it is not lava but water!

    Sunset at aso farmland and we stayed inside this igloo-like structure X)
    Because of the structure of it, the people you are talking to will seem to be next to you when they are not

    Cam-whoring at the dinner place while waiting X)

    On day 6, we got to feed seagulls so our bus drove into this ferry and we climbed up to the deck and there were just loads and loads of seagulls and jy told me about the feetless seagulls which was very sad X( Anyway if u hold your hands out, they will just grab the bread and they also seem to fly in circles yep

    Photobucket

    thats me lol, neway the bell was once made of gold but it was used to make into weapons so this is another one that they made to replace the old one

    Photobucket

    hmm at first i thought it was a drain with very clean water but its actually like a stream yea

    Photobucket

    In one of those samurai houses and in the past they have a caste system so if your father is a farmer you will be one too

    Photobucket

    Have u ever wondered what hell looks like? well this is a picture of hell

    Photobucket

    Bubbling water~~

    Photobucket

    Eggs are being cooked in the crate X)

    Photobucket

    After leaving Unzen hell XD

    Photobucket

    We went to the Nagasaki bomb museum and these are papercranes folded by students and etc.

    Photobucket

    This is a statue after the Nagasaki bombing and neway sth funny happened there so you may refer to jy's blog X)

    Photobucket

    This is sorta our last day in kyushu and early in the morning we went to pick oranges XD

    Photobucket

    oranges with cute leaves X)

    Photobucket

    Photobucket

    At the science centre, this guy did alot of amazing experiments on bubbles,rockets etc

    Photobucket

    We also went to NHK and actually we were being told twice that we had to perform our songs chan mali chan and muneeru vaaliba the first time was to perform at Takachiho high school and the second time was supposed to be at NHK well in the end we didn't have to perform at all. But i dunno whether we shld be relieved or what cause we spent quite some time practicing and memorising the songs... oh well

    Photobucket

    After that we actually got to put off "fire", experience typhoon and earthquake and finally, escape a from a fire. It was super fun to do all those things

    Photobucket

    So we started screaming even before it started shaking XP

    Photobucket

    At night we finally got to shop at Aeon mall this is the glass window of QB house where jy cut her hair
    The mall is as big as vivo(may be bigger) and the things there are pretty expensive too and we only had around 3 hrs to spend most of our money so most of us were in a hurry and stuff but i managed to spend most of my money there yep and in the process we lost jy X( but fortunately we found her
    Anyway i seriously think that the restaurant is very hard to find X/

    Photobucket

    ok this is wrong but we just wanted to take a walk... XD

    Photobucket

    ok mayb also to go to the ramen store XP

    Yea so this is about all for the 7 full days in japan. Because of this trip, i learnt alot more about the things around me and also so much more about japan(the people, the environment, culture etc) i seriously think that my japanese has improved too.... right? And also i seemed to be quite clumsy to some people, but i will not admit it XD lalalala
    So in the process there may be some unhappiness but the trip was still memorable and want to go back Japan very soon X)

    (ps. this is a freaking long post, i took like afew hrs to do this o0)

    lalala sth i forgot to post (dedicated to jy XD)
