Don't worry. Just disembark at the famous JR Ueno Station and look for the Saigo Takamori statue (where we'll gather first). It's that simple

Wow you guys happening, reply so fast.

Fire, sembahyang lah kuat2 agar tak hujan

I'll be joining you guys only for the hanami; around noon i need to zoom to Shinjuku

LOL bokuwa hentai janai yo.

Just don't want to miss out the Nihon gals parading the Shinjuku/Harajuku streets. Konica !

Doc Anon, tukar awan kepada salji atau sakura

Dirt cheap. My ticket is RM 3.1k

Btw tanoshi, i'll try to get some Malaysian delicacies. If can't get, i'll just bring Japanese food

I see plenty of Nikes.

I can also foresee a hole burning in my wallet

Quiet onsens ? Go to the suburbs' ones.

Near Don Quijote heh ? Since im visiting this weird shop, definitely will drop by at ABC mart

Im also looking for a pair of sunglasses and cologne. Any idea where to find ?

Anyone been to Beppu here ?

The JAL receptionist advised me not to speak Eigo too fast to the Japanese (even though they understand a little), or else they'll run away with red face !

Im ordering a pack of sambal ikan bilis, hopefully the auntie can make it

I think we need some umbrellas too, just in case

Omedeto, Tanoshi !

My flight's on tomorrow's night; so excited now

Say goodbye to work for 1 week

Not yet. Just got back from office

Hopefully my JAL flight have nice, hot, kirei cabin attendants

Still the same time. We might meet at KLIA or Narita

Oh so will you be joining us for the hanami ?

Guys, i bought canned sambal ikan bilis instead. Hope you guys don't mind.

So, who'd be there early to find the place, clean and set up ? I can volunteer, but i don't bring the mat

And, 8 more hours for my flight !!

Tadaima !

Guys, im here at Tokyo !!! YATTAAAA ICHIBAN GENKI DESU!!!

Guess what, i got lost while looking for Kaminarimon x_X Asked alot of nihon-jins but of no help. Im lost in the concrete jungle.

Just went to Edo Tokyo Museum and Kokukigan just now. Fell asleep, too tired of jet-lag Btw, Ryogoku already can see cherry blossom lol

So, it's 7am confirmed at Ueno-koen ? Im staying at K's House Backpacker Hostel now, can find me for dinner later

Im going to try Asakusa Kannon and Nakamise again tonight. Wish me luck !

Just woke up

Will get to Ueno Hard Rock Cafe in 20 minutes.
