Trip to Japan 🇯🇵!🤟
Day 2: Rusutsu Resort
I woke up early in the morning, excitement burning inside me and I could not wait to go out for my
My parents even ordered some premium beef that was so tasty! Just the smell alone made my mouth water..... The Crab Rice that my mother ordered took more than 30 minutes to cook. I was not a fan of crab so I was not interested but to my amazement, the rice was simply delicious! I even wanted a second helping! It was a very good restaurant and my family decided to go again tomorrow as we wanted to try the other varieties of food. YUMMY!!! 🤟 🤟 🤟
Day 1: Rusutsu Resort
After a long and exhausting 9 hour flight from Singapore to Hokkaido, we took a taxi all the way up the mountain to the Best Ski Resort in Japan! Rusutsu Ski Resort!!!! 🤟 The moment we stepped out of the taxi, my eyes widened and my teeth started chattering. It was colder than I
However, the disappointment did not last long...... I got to take my first look at real snow!
Day 3: Rusutsu Resort
On the third day, we were going to ski by ourselves as we no longer needed the instructor to ski with us. After eating a sausage bun for breakfast, I eagerly went to the ski rental shop to get my skis. After that, my father bought the ski lift tickets for us and off we went to the mountain. During the first time I went down, I kept falling down as I was still trying to get used to the skis without help. However, I persevered and continued practicing my turns. Before lunch, I even had the confidence to execute some tricks like skiing backwards! 🤟 We went to the "Cricket" restaurant for lunch. They had very limited choices but they were all delicious. Their soup curry with rice was exceptionally good! The rice bowl with pork
My father took almost a hour to make it. Afterwards, my brother and I tried to make the snowman fall apart. However, the snowman was so solid and it was almost impossible to break it. In the end, I realised that if I kicked with all my strength, the snow would fall apart. It was very enjoyable to destroy the snowman and we decided to make another snowman next time! ☃️ For dinner, we went to our favourite restaurant there "Takakashi"! Yeahhhhhhhhhh!!!!! Today, I decided to try something different. As I was starving and my stomach was grumbling, I decided to order a beef and pork cutlet with a very very big bowl of rice! Delicious! The beef patty was the best thing I had eaten in Japan so far in our trip! It was simply magnificent! As I went skiing the whole day, I felt exhausted and decided to turn in early.
Day 4 - Rusutsu
The next day, we went for snowboarding lessons with our instructor coach Emily. Turns out snowboarding is even harder than skiing! However, I did not give up even when it got tough and persevered. As a result, I learned the ropes fast and before we knew it, we were going up the lift to snowboard down the mountain. On the way down, the instructor taught us many things. How to turn and other stuff. In the afternoon, we did even more laps and started to improve tremendously. At the base of the ski slope, my brother and I even made a ramp for us to use when we snowboarded down. When I snowboarded up the ramp and jumped, my heart thumped rapidly and I was on cloud nine. Awesome!
Day 5 - Rusutsu
The next day, my brother and I woke up, as our father had rented the snowboards for today. However, the excitement did not last long as......so much snow had melted. Not only that, the ski slope was all sticky which made it hard to snowboard or ski. As a result, we did not get the chance to go snowboard again that day. My dad decided to bring my brother and I to the arcade instead! My father, the legend won all these little Tomica cars with only 400 yen!!! Amazing right! My sister was so
On the last day, we took the monorail and went to the Westin to check out the snow activities there. But it had not started as there was not enough snow yet. So we went back to the resort to check out. We took our last few rides on the carousel and even tried the best hokkaido soft serve which was the icing on the
Sapporo:
We went to the very unique Asahiyama zoo which took us more than an hour to get there. However, the long wait was worth it as we managed to see many different animals that we could not find in Singapore. I saw a snow leapord, reindeers, a sika deer and many more! What I found most exciting was the wolves. There were 5 of them. At one point, all of them got into a fight which was cool! I even saw a very large siberian tiger! It was really a majestic creature and was wonderful to see. After that, we we to eat some delicious soup curry. Yummy! We even went to a Pokemon centre. However, it was very small....
The next day, we went to a small old town by the name of Otaru. What I found very cool was it is a wifi street! We even went to LeTao's original shop there and I tried their famously delicious double frommage cheese cake! I even got some delicious strawberry chocolates there. We had to get ourselves some yummy snacks before leaving to continue to explore Otaru for a while and then headed back.
We went to the Ishiya museum the next day and it was absolutely splendid despite the freezing cold weather. We bought so much biscuits and chocolates and I even ate some white chocolate ice cream that was simply
We also took many pictures with things like sleighs and more! I even managed to witness candy being made! Turns out, it was way harder than I thought which made me appreciate sweets alot more!
Tokyo:
On the first day in Tokyo, my family took the train excitedly to our favourite place in Tokyo! Ikebukuro! Home to many shopping places, a mega pokemon centre, and delicious food! My brother and I quickly made our way to the Pokemon center. There were so many things to buy and there were even pokemon statues which looked absolutely awesome. They had all sorts of accessories and toys for one to choose from My sister also had a whale of a time there playing with a mini Pokemon gachapon machine. We were starving and my tummy was growling and so we decided to have dinner. We went to the amazing burger shop called Kua Aina! The burgers that they sold there were delicious! I ordered a yummy double cheese burger. The fries were also very crispy, way better than the ones at Macdonalds!!!
The next day, we went to Tokyo Disneyland! Supposedly the happiest place on Earth! There were many Disney characters parading around the park and my sister would exclaim whenever she saw one! There were also many themed rides. There was a (mini) roller coaster that my sister loved so much, she even wanted to go again! Three times and she was only 4! For lunch, we had some pizza as we watched the afternoon parade, my sister was so excited at the sight of minnie mouse! However, it was raining and the night performance was cancelled. At least, we got to see the special christmas performance though! ☃️ When we went back, we ate at 品辛！a very good ramen place. The food there was simply delicious! We went there last year and this year, I could not wait to eat it again! Three cheers for delicious ramen!
We went to a place (Daimaru i think) to buy some unique Casio watches for everyone! It was very cool and mine was green! So that i can camouflage during army!
The next day, we went back to Singapore happy but sad as we may not be going to visit to Japan in a long while. I will not forget all the fun and the delicious food I had there. especially the food. GOODBYE JAPAN!!!
