Tuesday 18th December 2007 - woke up at like 8 am after sleeping at like 3 the previous night. yawning all the way to the toilet. oh ya speaking of toilet the toilet bowl is way fascinating. you cant believe that such budget hotel has such cool and warming toilet bowl! you can adjust the temp. of your toilet bowl! sleek! and also wash your butt with your toilet bowl! nice! haha..... ok went down for breakfast at about 8.45am JPT. breakfast is so boring cos i think the hotel's for business people so maybe thats the reason why. had 3 eggs and loads of bread with 2 cups of tea (not lipton tea =( ) after that headed for errrm oh yes! Tokyo Tower! kinda like the Paris's Tower but then it has its own unique features! like the whole tower's red yep redddddddddddd. took like a good thirty minutes walk from the station to like the actual tower itself passed by a Shinto Temple before reaching. oh yeah the temple actually had a place for people to drink water from! nice~! haha besides that then headed for the actual thing the Tokyo Tower!!! Roar!~~~ ok its very tall haha and very magnificant. like how you see it on internet and stuffs. wanted to climbed but then its a tad too expensive i guess =/ oh ya i had crepes when im there haha... nice banana and choco rice crepes yum lol. ok after tokyo tower trip actually wanted to go to rainbow bridge but then due to some miscommunications in the end never go. instead we went to Ginzo, Japan's Orchard Road went to Sony building to look for some high tech equip and saw their sleek MP3s not out in SG i think well is it going to be even out? went to have some belgian waffles and headed back to hotel. after that for dinner wehad pepper lunch! though sg has it but still i must emphasize on the serving they give compared to sg. and its like cheaper! man! imba lol... after that found a way to online and chatted.
