Crystaldewgems....: Tokyo Luv

I juz came back from Tokyo and there's lotsa pictures!

Never in my life had I imagined that I would get to travel to Tokyo and yet it's happened! All thanks to my baby who had to oversee a project site over there. I used his airmiles points for my flight tix and squeezed in with him in his tiny hotel room.*smilez*

Tokyo was pretty fun. Even though I travelled alone most of the time (coz baby was working), there was really no danger. Tokyo was absolutely safe.

I braved the complex train systems of Tokyo, stood at the crowded street junctions of Shibuya, wandered into a ever so common maid cafe in Akihabara, drank in the vibrant air of Shinjuku, relaxed under the shade of greenery in Ueno Park, was at peace in the areas of Asukusa...

However there were a couple of incidents which thinking back made me laugh. I was trapped on the train platform in the town of Sakura when the trains outgoing to Narita was super delayed. As I couldn't really understand the annoucements over the PA system, all I could do was wait. And of all days when I was in Tokyo, that day happened to be the day when there were torrent rains all throughout parts of Tokyo. It was 10.50pm when I reached Sakura. I was cold and scared although there were also other commuters waiting at the platform as well, I was not comforted. Comtemplated to take a cab back to Narita if not for the fact that baby pointed out the fare would easily come up to S$200 - S$300... *Balk*

Kept calling Baby then coz I need someone to talk to me, to console me but he was still working and ain't really convenient to chat with me. *sigh*

Waited for the train til 12.05am and was instantly relieved when I jumped into the warm carriage, away from the chilly wind and drizzling rain...
