FIRST DAY TOYKO

JAPAN | Tuesday, 3 November 2009 | Views [216]

AFTER A 11HR FLIGHT ON SINGAPORE AIRLINES WE ARRIVED IN TOYKO AT NARITA AIRPORT. THE FLIGHT WAS FUNUMABLE WE WHERE TREATED TO HOT TOWELS, SOCKS, TOOTH BRUSH-PASTE, 4 EXHUSITE MEALS ALL OF JAPANESSE TASTE AND BEN AND JERRYS ICE-CREAM AND ALL THE ALCHOL YOU WANTED FOR FREE!! I GUESS THIS INCLUDED IN INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS!! THERE WAS ONE ITEM ON DINNER PLATE THAT LOOKED LIKE GRASS CLIPPINGS FROM A LAWN-MOWER BUT WAS ACTUALLY SEA WEED.

AFTER WE GOT OFF THE FLIGHT WE HEADED TO THE BATHROOM WHERE WE WHERE WELCOMED BY NUMBERBOUS STALLS FROM A BADADE TO A SINGING TOILET, CHILD SEAT HOLDER, AND ONE WITH ALL THE NECISTYS SINK, CHANGE TABLE AND TOLIET. THAT ONLY THAT CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD WAS HOW WARM THE SEAT WAS LOL. IN JAPAN ALL TOILET SEATS ARE HEATED, I HAD THOUGHT SOME ONE HAD WARMED IT BEFORE ME GROSS BUT THEN I LATER FOUND OUT.

THROUGH IMMIGRATION THEY TAKE A PHOTO OF YOU AND SCAN BOTH YOUR RIGHT AND LEFT INDECKS FINGER FOR SECURITY.

AFER WE GOT OUT OF THE AIRPORT WE HEADED TO NIPPORA TO CATCH OUT RAIL TO THE HOSTEL, WE DID PURCHASE AHEAD OF TIME A JAPAN RAIL PASS THAT LETS US YOU THE RAIL IN JAPAN FOR FREE. AFTER GETTING TO OUR STOP A NIGUSHA-HIMA WE WHERE WELCOMED TO DOWN POUR RAIN AND TEMPURTURE OF 5 DEGREE CELIUS IT WAS VERY COLD CONSIDERING I ONLY PACKED ONE SWEATER!! WE FOUND OUR HOSTEL AT JGH. IT WAS VERY SKETCHY AT FIRST AND THE HALLWAY TO WALK DOWN TO MY DORM WAS SO SMALL I HAD TO TURN TO THE SIDE AND SHUFFLE WITH MY BACK PACK OFF!!

I WAS SOO EXHUASTED WITH THE TIME DIFFERENCE AND FINDING THE HOSTEL I WENT TO BED AND GOT READY FOR MY FIRST REAL DAY IN TOYKO!!
