[shygirlme]

[Bellerina]

Ano weather sa Tokyo ng first 2 wks ng June? Summer daw kasi and mas mainit daw kesa Pinas.

[engroselle]

nung pumunta nga pala kami ng Tokyo Skytree, we were there ng 10am. confident pako kasi medyo maaga-aga kami. at Monday yun. so expected namin, 12noon, tapos na kami...
ang sistema pala dun, pagpunta mo, bibigyan ka nila ng schedule slip. when we arrived, 2pm - 2:30 ang slot! :-( akala ko, pagpunta mo dun, buy ticket then akyat na. hindi pala...

we went muna to Sensoji. kaso napatagal kami sa shopping strip dun. di na kami umabot sa temple. haha! nakabili kami ng maleta. Ginza Karen name nung shop. sya lang nagbebenta na maleta dun. bought 1 na pang hand carry lang, 5,250 Yen ( walang pang 2k pesos :-)) recommended ng friend namin. 3 binili nya last time dun.

we also tried yung Sushi Go Around Restaurant. sushi plates na may conveyor. dampot ka lang ng gusto mo. nakakalito design ng plates nila. kaya yung may price talkers ang kinukuha ko. mahirap na magkamali. hehe. 1 finished 6 plates, si hubby 4 lang. 

when we were about to go back sa Skytree, sira naman yung Skytree line.  ikot pa tuloy kami. at ayun. late kami sa call time. ayaw na nga kami papasukin. inabuso ko lang pagka-foreigner namin. haha! sabi ko sira kasi Skytree line & we had to go around.  pumayag naman. :-) nakakahiya nga lang sa pila, kasi iba kulay ng schedule card namin. nagpapalit kasi sila every hour. yellow na yung mga nakapila, kami ni hubby blue.

Nice hotel to stay in Tokyo? Any recommendations?

[maimailove]

@yanah12 Try Airbnb sis. Madaming cheaper options dun and you can even rent apartment all for yourself.


Sino nakapunta na ng Tokyo ng July? Gaano kainit ba sya? Kinakabahan ako sa init e. Ayoko ng masyadong mainit. Nakakita kase ako nung Sunday ng seatsale sa Cebupac, 4k lang RT for July so binook ko agad.

[glamorous_aisha]

^sis mainit ang july at maulan. so nakakbwisit yung weather umuulan pero super humid. haha

[princess lorraine]

We're here in Tokyo! We arrived at shibuya excel hotel tokyu at 5:30pm. Sarap ng weather dito ang lamig 10C. We'll be going to don quixote later then disney se tomorrow. 

[ayami]

^enjoy <3  di ba umuulan? Ang lamig pa rin ng 10degrees para sakin waah.

[vhanya]

Just arrived from our Japan trip. Most of the time its raining in Tokyo. It could get cold nga at night but safe na 10-19deg. Yesterday naman when we left ang init! Di na ako nag coat. Naka sleeveless pa nga ako haha!

[princess lorraine]

Ang sarap magshopping sa don quixote! Naghoard ako ng kitkat (cheesecake, mango pie, blueberry and wasabi flavors) and bourbon chocolates and cookies! 

[vhanya]

^try tokyo banana too. Masarap din =)

[ayami]

One stop shop nga ang Donki sa Dotonbori ako namili dati. Yung mga Chinese tourists panay Kitkat Macha naman ang hinoard. Melty Kiss ang gusto kong ihoard pag balik ko.

[princess lorraine]

^^yes sis i love tokyo banana too! Kaso wala Kong nakita sa donki eh. Maybe i'll just buy when we go to tokyo tower or sa airport nalang. We had dinner at a ranen place near our hotel. Kakatuwa 1976 yen lang bill namin for 3 pax na. Not bad na.  we're off to disney sea today. Sana di kami mahirapan sa train system nila.

[princess lorraine]

It was freezing cold at disney sea yesterday. Temp was at 4 degrees and it rained the whole day kaya medyo kakatamad magpicture. If only I have known that it will be this cold here I would have brought my winter jackets. I love Disney Sea! Kakaiba siya! Yung nga shows and rides pala puro Japanese language walang english. Hehe.  I bought Tokyo Banana caramel flavor and chocolate brownie flavor at Tokyo Station. Super daming Japanese food souvenirs dun. We'll be going to  Disneyland today. Then I am going to buy cookies naman yung parang lengua de gato  with filling at Tokyo Station before we come back to the hotel. I love Shibuya! We explored the place last night. Super daming nice restos and stores here.  We had dinner at a katsu resto at shibuya mark city. Super yummy ng food. We spent 3150 yen for 3 pax na. Sulit! Super quiet ng mga tao dito. Kahit sa train and resto hindi puwede malakas ang boses. Hehe. Some of the Japanese people don't speak English but they are very polite and helpful. They will try their best to help you talaga kahit sign language. 

[shygirlme]

^ganyan din nung pumunta kami sa disneyland 5deg tapos umulan kaya di ko masyado na enjoy Ang lamig masyado hehe. Yun lang hirap wala masyadong english translations sa ride ng disney. Even yun shows ni mickey. Hehe

[nageinna]

how i miss tokyo! was planning to go back pa naman sana next year with my parents naman kaya lang mukhang madedelay. sa sobrang disappointment ko last time kasi naubusan kami ng tokyo banana sa airport, hubby asked his friend na galing japan to buy tokyo banana for me. i tried it just this morning and masarap nga.

[dooonna]

My friend is in Tokyo now then nagtour sila the other day or yesterday sa Nikko, and it was SNOWING!!! Chineck ko naman ang accuweather, wala naman nakalagay na nag-snow or even temperature na nagpapakita na nagsnow. Weird.

[ayami]

Nagsnow nga daw. Medyo disappointed ako haha di ko inabot lol. Wala na ngang cherry blossoms na-miss ko pa yung weird snow.

Flight ko na mamaya in 9 hrs can't wait!

[princess lorraine]

I love the weather yesterday! It did nit rain the whoke day pero malamig parin. Sarap sana laging ganun. I super love disneyland! Mas like ko siya than disney sea. I bought some cookies at tokyo station. Naubos pera ko sa tokyo station ang dami talagang food dun! Then we went to tokyo tower for photo ops. We walked for 20 mins from hamamatsucho station to tokyo tower then 2@ mins din pabAlik. Bought tokyo banana, lengua cookies and ref magnet at the souvenir shop. We had dinner at ippudo in shibuya. 2600 yen lang for 3 pax. Yummy! We're off to sanrio puroland today.
