FujiQ Highland, Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, Japan

Bismillah...

On the second day in Japan we took a bus to Fuji-Q Highland in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi. It is a few hours bus ride from Tokyo. We arrived around 11am.

The park opens early at 9am until 5pm. On certain days they operate until  8pm.

Free pass with my face on it. After taking the ticket from the counter, you have to insert it into a machine which captures your face and produce this awesome entrance ticket. I was standing tall so that's why my forehead is cut off.

The rides are amazingly thrilling and awesome. They have one of the the longest roller Coaster and also the steepest roller coaster. The rides are:

• Fujiyama; this is the longest roller coaster and also tallest. Even though the line is so super long, the ride is worth waiting.
• Eijanaika; this is the steepest roller coaster which rotates 360° forward and backward that inverts 14 different times.  Totally awesome!!
• Takashiba; this is the 121° free fall ride. Scary but fun. It makes your adrenaline high.
• Dodonpa; this is the 4th fastest roller coaster in the world. 
• Pizza-la; I loved this one the most. It's a lay back ride where you can enjoy the view. The day view you will be able to see Fuji Mountain. Where as the night view you will be able to see colourful lights around the area.

Before heading back we went to the Haunted Hospital. It was freaking scary.

Malaysian visiting Japan

Bismillah...

Japan is a must country to visit. It is a friendly country. Everything is made easy and convenient. However it is a bit difficult to go around if you don't have a friend who knows Japanese.

The new regulations is that Malaysians are exempted to apply visa with a passport compliant with ICAO standards. A passport with the chip symbol in front of the cover.

Have fun in Japan because I had a blast there!!!!

Wassalam & Cheers.

Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka in 5 days.

A short happening awesome trip with my cousins.

We travelled in a group of 4 people. I went there with two cousins; Wan and Wawa and met my 3rd cousin;Faisal in Japan. 

We took a noon flight and arrived Tokyo airport around midnight. It was a short fun flight with cousins. This was our first trip together. As we arrived late, we decided to sleep at the airport.  The airport is very clean and people friendly. There's a lot of chairs for us to sit *and sleep*. A lot of other travellers did the same. We prayed in the breastfeeding room. Early in the morning we took the train to the city and headed to our hotel in Higashi Shinjuku.

Our first destination was Fujikyu @ FujiQ. The amusement park was awesome. I'll definitely go there again this June.

Our second day was well spent in Tokyo city. We went to a few shopping malls and shrine.

On the third day we headed to Kyoto by a bullet train. We went to a shrine in the evening.

On the forth day we cycled in Kyoto and had shushi. The best sushi in this whole wide world. Yummmyy!!

On our last day we went to Osaka and had fun in Universal Studio Japan.

Japan is definitely a great place to explore different culture, food and environment.

Wassalam and Cheers.

1st February 2014

Bismillah...

Alhamdulillah...

It's the day I was born healthy and bright. Wiser and not older. Happier and not depressed. Better in everything and not worse. 

Another year and counting. Age is just a number. How old am I? ** It's a secret you'll never know** 

The best thing about being a shopaholic is that I get birthday wishes from different outlets. The first wish came from SOGO a few days before. Amagad!! They are so efficient. Insya Allah I'll buy more things from your store. The second message came from AEON. Exciting coupon waiting for me!! Last but not least is from Digi. I was hoping I'll get 50% discount for my February bill. But I guess that is so not happening. ='(

I'm still waiting for wishes and free gift from The Travel Store as I've been shopping there lately. LOL.

Anyways friends and family did wish. I felt really old with the wishes. But I try to think myself as being more mature than yesterday.. **hope on**

Mariam: Older and wiser!!!!

Wassalam & Cheers.

The latest toll rate in Malaysia

Bismillah...

I'm so unhappy with the new toll rate. I use these roads to reach my destination faster and to avoid heavy traffic.  I guess I need to find new alternative to avoid these tolls in future.

Lets live life modestly....

Wassalam and Cheers.

Facebook addiction

Bismillah...

Facebook is an addiction that I can never run away from. Every hour I'd check my facebook account.  I'd read through the news feed (a.k.a stalking my friends like nothing to do in life.)

So today I made up my mind to only surf Facebook through my computer at home. I finally uninstall the Facebook app for android from my handphone!! * this is considered as an achievement for me*

What a releif!!!

Cherish life to the fullest.

Wassalam & Cheers.
