Somehow lucky that we were on a midnight flight. Got to catch the stars and sunrise at the same time. The sight was spectacular, my camera is not doing this pretty universe any justice. Meh.





But good enough lah?



We were both half dead by the time we arrived at Hong Kong. Because we actually intended to nap on the plane, but we ended up watching 47 Ronin.

Anyway, I was pretty annoyed when I arrived in Hong Kong for transit. We touched down at about 5:15AM and it was sooooooo freaking early there isn't much restaurant open. T_T I couldn't eat my dim sum at all. So we nua around the departure hall and stupidly walked into a Singaporean Restaurant, not knowing it is Singaporean Restaurant. So we became ahhai and kena chop 28bux for a bowl of wanton mee and 4 gyoza.... T_T

At about 08:30AM, we were all ready for the flight to Tokyo!!





A must-have shot whenever you take planes, hahahaha.

I practically knocked out on the flight the moment I sat down on my seats because I didn't sleep the previous night when I was on the plane to Hongkong, hahahahaha. Missed all the good views of HK's landscape during takeoff, :(

We arrived in Tokyo, Haneda Airport at about 1405(Japan time), and had quite a bit of problems getting through the customs. Both me and Ryan didn't know we have to fill in 2 forms before we can get through.

1: Visiting visa
2: Duty declaration

So we ended up having to queue 2 times for both the forms because we didn't fill in. And wasted more than an hour at the arrival hall, :(

And also ended up missing the original bus we were supposed to take to Shinjuku. So we had to rush around the airport and purchase all the necessary tickets and rush out to the bus stop. I'm surprised we actually managed to catch the earliest bus available! But running with luggages is actually quite an experience hahahhaa.

Upon arriving at Shinjuku, we headed over to Odakyu Tourist Center and purchase our Romancecar tickets to Hakone!

We also bought Hakone+Fuji Freepass! To allow us to travel freely around Hakone area with unlimited rides for 3 days!













Made a beeline to our hotel the moment we alighted because we were required to check-in before 6PM, otherwise our dinner will be forfeited. :(

I mean, the dinner for today is a Kaiseki style dinner... HOW CAN WE MISS THAT?!?!?!
So we ran lah, again. With our luggages, hahahahha

Hakone is famous for their Onsen and Ryokan! So we chose a ryokan hotel which is super near to Hakone-Yumoto station! More convenient for us and there is a 7-11 close to the hotel!



Our room! Dinner was being prep the moment we settled down. And yep, dinner in our room. Dam shiokkkk!
