Winter Holidays at Tokyo

Arrived at Tokyo, safe and sound but tired and hungry. My 3rd time in Tokyo, Hubby's 2nd and Gine's 1st. Colder than the previous trip when Hubby and I were there for our honeymoon but luckily it was not raining!

Have to admit that I have never ever travelled on package tours, not even when we brought Gine along!. Unlike our previous trip where Hubby and I took the JR trains (complicated and crowded), we decided to hop onto the airport transfer conveniently. Gine was definitely tired from the early flight and lack of sleep. Even then, she was definitely excited by the 'Mickey Mouse' bus and train (part of the reason why we chose to stay at Sheraton at Tokyo Bay).
Definitely impressed by Japan's customer service (so much better than any other countries) and the cleanliness etc. Hubby never understands why I love Japan so much till this day...

We ventured out again right after we have freshened up...to the well-recommended Rainbow Bridge at Tokyo Bay and the huge shopping centre located there! (typical Singaporeans)

As it was winter, the day was so much shorter. It was already all dark at 530pm. Guess all of us were so tired that we decided to go back to the hotel early...well-prepared for all the fun coming our way!!!

Oiishi Ramen - Glad that I was still able to converse in my 'rusty' Japanese


At the shopping mall/entertainment centre - with lots of kiddy rides which you can never find them in Singapore
