The final part of my holiday...31 May 2007 (afternoon) to 2 June 2007 (evening), we were at Japan. We explored around Narita (where we were living cos it's near the airport) and Tokyo (Ueno, Shibuya and Shinjuku). It's was a nice experience! The people there though not very conversant in English but mostly friendly, helpful and polite (especially those at Narita, near Mercure Hotel). They lined up to enter the train and when the train arrived, they let the passengers get out first...Totally unlike Singapore :( I would loved to live there except that the train system and lines are confusing and numerous (operated by different co.)...Better brush up your Japanese language if u are considering going to Japan. The student's school uniform is so COOL and PRETTY!!! Wow...simply love their uniform :O) haha. The rice there is extremely delicious - I'm not joking! (I'm known for being choosy but the 2 Japanese Stores I went was GREAT!) Dear friends, you have to admit the chocolate is SUPER NICE too!

Ouch. I forgot to mention that in Shanghai - (Ren Ming Guan Chang - People Square), you can still find Singapore identity there. Example: Raffles City (see pic) - where familiar brands can be found.
