at the methods. Well I visited many cities. The main city we spend the most days was in Tokoyo and was where we landed and changed our dollars π΅ to yen π΄. Tokyo was the most expensive part in Japan but also had lots great times exploring and shopping esp Tokyo Disney. The main thing I liked in Japan overall despite the communication barrier the Japanese were very polite and in the hotels we stayed did everything to make the stay worthwhile and the cities very clean ( hardly our shoes got dirty walking the streets).
Now letβs begin with Disneyland in Tokyo as that was really exciting went on rides like Indiana Jones and walked around lots and got many souvenirs. Also, that was only day it rained in Japan, it had been predicted that it would be a rainy season but was more dry and humid ( 28 degrees Celsius was the norm). That day when it rained we got drenched and ended buying umbrellas and ponchoβs.
The Japanese carry umbrellas in general due to the extreme heat that we experienced when we were there. In the states we donβt use umbrellas βοΈ to give us shade but seems like they donβt mind carrying around umbrellas π. In Tokyo the Ist place we ate was a popular Raman noodle place. The place had long lines and seating was crowded people ordered quickly and ate just as quick. At these places, whatever size you order is the same price the main thing is they donβt like you to waste so one must eat how much they can.( my tip order wisely). This is a small noodle order but it was too much in my case lol. Picture: as lots cilantro on top then below are the noodles and other veggies.
Some in the group didnβt like the noodles much so when they saw McDonald s around the corner ordered there. Though the McDonalds there isnβt exactly the same as they have a modified menu then the states and more exoctic.( they got more veg options like cheese pototoes and pies in India and in non veg like teriyaki chicken and more desert options. Picture: McDonalds: teriyaki chicken, cheese pie, ice cream, veggies, potatoes, raspberry drink, and chopsticks were given. I didnβt eat this but some in the group ordered this.
The Starbucks I noticed which was by goto they had more healthier options here plus most drinks unsweetened which was a delight and had a pina coloda drink which I liked. And around every corner was a vending machine where one could get drinks to cool down and the Japanese snacks were nice.
We visited some shrines and castles as well in Tokyo. And in Tokyo they have all the name brands Chanel to Luis Vuitton ahd every thing is authentic . They also sell luxury Italian brands which I liked . We also did a luggage service which meant we didnβt have to carry our bags as the service would bring it to our next hotel/city since we were traveling to multiple cities by express train(bullet trains). Kyoto was the second city , the third was Wakayama, the 4th okaska, and last one Hiroshima. Will tell in more detail soon so to be continuedβ¦.
Tip: do keep google translator handy as most donβt speak English and many mishaps and π€£π€£lol encounters to share
