We start our morning by heading the Ueno Park. From Ikebukuro to Ueno Station, it cost us ¥170 per way per person (around MYR6.30 per person). Walked down the park, went to the pond and there was sort like Yakuza gathering there! Luckily during that gathering, we were about to leave the park!

Good morning from Ikebukuro!

From Ueno Park, we went to Asakusa Station which cost us ¥170 per way per person (around MYR6.30 per person). Went to the Sensoji Temple and walk down the shopping street of over 200 meters called Nakamise. We shopped for some souvenirs here!

From Asakusa, we went to Tokyo Skytree. We took photos outside without went up to the tower, as there is a shopping mall there.



At night, me and my brother went to Akibahara which cost us ¥200 per way, per person (around MYR7.40 one way per person). Stopped at the Gundam Cafe and just walked around. The wind was so strong and cold, obviously! Then we head back to apartment!

It took me only 2 weeks to really finalized my itinerary to Tokyo from 02 - 06 May 2016. With the help of my lil bro, Pejal, we managed to bring our parents to Tokyo!

Me n my parents are already checked in as we are using my last n final FOC ticket. It was just my lil bro, Pejal taking the standby ticket from Kuching to Narita. KL to Narita was not a problem since the flight was half full! Luckily with the help of my friend in KCH, we managed to get the seat for Pejal.

We gathered in KLIA to take the flight to Narita Airport, Tokyo.

Reached Narita Airport at around 0740hrs, local time Tokyo. As we do not really in a rush, so we just walked slowly for the gate to arrival. At the immigration, I am not sure why it took quite longer time for me to settle.

We went down to the train area to reload the Suica cards I borrowed from Kak Zila and Kak Jah. Since Pejal wanted to purchase the Suica card for himself, so I just follow his to the counter and he managed to buy 1! As for reload, we have to go to the machine. Luckily, there are instruction in English!

We took the cheapest transportation from Narita Airport to to the city! Since we need to go to Ikebukuro station to get to our apartment! From Narita Airport Terminal 2, to Nappori station only cost us ¥1030 each, around MYR38.00 by taking the Keisei Main Line Limited Express. Then, from there, we took the JR Yamanote Line to Ikebukuro Station, ¥170 around MYR6.30 each.

At Ikebukuro Station, with the help of my lil bro, Pejal,  we managed to get to the surface and look for our apartment we paid from airbnb. So far, my parents just stayed at the apartment, whereas me & my brother went to Sunshine City nearby. Found the Daiso shop there at the ground floor, and spotted the Pokemon Center and Pejal surveyed the G-Shock watch for his friend.

Earlier today, me and a few of colleagues decided to order Domino's Pizza for Iftar. So we did the order via the website. The website is so beautiful and user friendly, and I have fun doing the order. It was at 4.30pm, and I have selected the order to sent at 6.00pm, hope that the oder will reach the office just nice for Iftar.

At around 6.40pm, I called Domino's Call Centre to ask about the status of my order. Mr Akma told me, the delivery boy will reach my place in 5 minutes.

A few minutes later, my housemate called saying the delivery boy is at home with my order! After spoken to the delivery boy, he said he will send the order to my office address.

At around 7.15pm, Subang Perdana branch called telling me that the order will be sent late because delivery boy have to come back to the branch, before sending the order to my office. Admitting it was my fault, I agreed to get the order 30 minutes later.

Exactly after the Azan played on the television, I saw a guy in blue shirt came in to my office. It was Mr Tajul, with my order, 15 minutes earlier than expected. At that time, I was ready to break my fast with just warm water (sedihnyer!), waiting for my order to came in 15 minutes later.

Knowing that Mr Tajul, came in with no food for breaking fast, I gave him a can of chrysanthemum tea (teh bunga). I know i was nothing compare to the effort Mr Tajul took to send the order right on time.

So, we had our pizza happily, and sent a compliment to Domino's hope that they will appreciate him as a very good staff! And, he keep on apologizing for the delivery delay even though the silly mistake was by me! Well, that is customer service!

just sharing .. now i have two pregnant ladies on left n right, here in the office! on my right will deliver anytime .. as she counted, today is already her 9th month, 7 days! and on the left, earlier her due date was on the Aug 8th .. but doctor said she might deliver earlier! somewhere end of July! waaggghhhhh!! n now, most of the topics discussed are about babies n experience giving birth! so call i am ready with all this free parenting education! they even discuss about to make the way for the baby! they even show the fingers how to make the way! hmmmmm ..
