Juz came back frm Osaka on Friday at like wad 9.45pm.A lot of things to blog abt now man.Firstly, i got my Zen Neeon 2 liao yay! Quite easy to use-it's just like a thumbdrive you know then can watch movies and stuff oso. Well anyw here's some stuff abt my trip. It was so-so lar but i think i prefered the Tokyo trip last year. Give me a sec while i recall wad interesting things there are.hmmm.....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I shall start with the number of train lines their train systems haf. There's subway(which goes ard dat area of Osaka only) and train(which goes to erm...all parts of japan and osaka etc) and total got like 20+ lines,incl those dat go to other places like Kyoto, Nara and other cities.Lemme see if i can remember some lines-Mido-suji line(subway),Chuo line(subway),JR line(train), Osaka Loop Line(train) and a lopt more but i can't remember.Oh and the trains all haf "Women Only" carraige which only women are allowed to board(duh?) at peak hours and guess wad? We all so pro u know want to chiong into the train b4 it left and somehow hor the carraige we chiong into all women one leh and the signs are in pink.Figure out wad happened for urself.HAHA. There are so many lines so must change and change and it's very confusing to find out wad stop to change and get off and all dat. Also hor, the train stations are all underground and are alll darn bigso it's super confusing.Plus near Hilton(the hotel i was staying at) got 2 stations(Osaka Station
and Nishi-Umeda) combine together one so like damn big and confusing and all the signs in jap lar. Oh and here's a little fact dat would make Hui Yao sick-The fashion there is all high socks,for girls at least.They all wear super short skirts and the socks cover up to their knees!
Right that's done so next is the Osaka Castle, Kyoto tourist attractions and the Nara deer park. Basically these 3 are all like temples, shrines and castles and stuff. Oh and in Kyoto the Nijo castle right, they have this creaking floorboard which was used in acient times as like a security alarm-everytime someone steps onto it, it produces this sound which supposedly sounds like a nightangle(i din hear it though). The deer park is this park where the deers are allowed to like run wild and roam this park area and within this park there are like temples and shrines also.
Next is Univeral Studios. It was much smaller than the US one, judging from wad i have seen in my grandma's photos when she went there last year. I still prefered Disneyland to this though. The rides were like so-so only and all based on Universal Pictures movies and like ET, Jurrasic Park, Back to The Future, Spider-Man and more. They have a lot of 4D shows(which is 3D and they spray water and all dat at u at appropriate time during the show. The fun rides were only Spider-Man, which is like super cool man is 1/2 simulator and "real ride" where the real things blend so nicely in to the 3d screen,making it seem real man. then they spray hot air and water at u when the villians attck "u" and all dat, Back to the Future(simulator) and Jurrasic Park(Log Ride).Oh and after dat we ate at this Bubba Gump(a restaurant hmmm...how shd i put it...about Forrest Gump) western restaurant for dinner and they got a very cool way of calling for the waiters and waitressess.It's like they have these 2 mini car plates one behind the other bearing the words "Run Forrest Run" and "Stop Forrest Stop" and hooked on this stand.So like if u want to call them right u just flip the "Stop Forrrest Stop" sign on top of the "Run Forrest Run". Yea so that's about it for Universal Studios.Oh and if u want to see some photos, juz msn me.
Right the next other interesting thing is the Aquarium Osaka Kaiyukan(Read it as Kai Yuan at first.lol). It's very cool u know they go according to depth so u start from the top floor which is the forest level where u see those fishes living in the river at stuff, the u work your way slowly downwards. Oh and they also exhibit animals of different oceans and places. And not only do they have fishes in the aquarium, they also have otters, penguins, sloths, sealions and some other creatures. They also have this whale(yes u heard me right) in the "Pacific Ocean" exhibit. Cool eh?But the whale shark not very big lar. And the glass used for the enclosure is an amazing 30cm thick!!! In the "Kelp Forest" exhibit there's this weird looking fish known as "Sunfish"(you can go google it).It looks like half a fish and it's quite big and u not suppose to use flash when taking photos of only this fish in the whole aquarium cos it disturbs it or something. There's also this Manta Ray in the "Pacific Ocean" exhibit which is damn big like nearly half the size of a tennis court(without the doubles alley).
Yea so after that we went on this "World's Largest Ferris Wheel" which was right next to the aquarium. It's super big and high k.It's called the Tempozan Giant Wheel if i remember correctly. So when we got down right, we went to this shopping centre next to the wheel and there's was this shop which was selling popcorn available in 32( i think it's 32) different flavours!
"Popcorn Papa" the name of the shop.Got like bacon and cheese, pizza, chocolate, vanilla, pasta and a lot more la juz google the name and i think u can find the website(to lazy to do it now =).
Well still got to do a lot of other things but it would be very boring to blog everything cos it will be super long. So i'll tell u all more abt it when school reopens.
Oh and i bought J.Mok's b'day present(his b'day party on 30th) at Kansai International Airport. Hope he likes it!
Now as i end my longets blogpost ever i would like to say something....
Thx for reading until here!
