Akhirnya impian ku untuk melancong ke Jepun tercapai juga, destinasi percutian kami adalah Osaka (Naniwa) , Kyoto dan Nara. Kerana mu AIR ASIA everyone can fly, 6 hari kami di sana dari 6.11.2012 hingga 12.11.2012. Bawalah duit lebih sikit untuk shopping dan duit untuk berjalan-jalan, pengangkutan paling murah adalah dengan keretapi (densha dalam bahasa Jepun nya) dan subway (chikatetsu )
Flight pukul 1 pagi ke Kansai Airport, kalau di rumah pukul 11 dah tidur, nak berjalan punya pasal tak tidur pun tak apa. Lebih kurang 6 jam penerbangan, seronok yang tak dapat dibayangkan, masa mula-mula plan tu nak ke Tokyo tapi disebabkan tiket dan tempat penginapan di sana terlalu mahal, kami tukar ke Osaka, yang penting dapat menjejakkan kaki semula di bumi Jepun selepas 30 tahun. Japan here I come!!!!
Kami tiba lebih kurang pukul 8.15 pagi, terus pusing jam 1 jam lebih awal dari waktu Malaysia, bergambar di Kansai airport dulu sambil tunggu giliran ke tandas, sempat juga ditemuramah oleh 2 orang pegawai polis , yang sorang tu tak begitu fasih bahasa Inggeris dan yang sorang lagi fasih berbahasa Indonesia. Dah ambil gambar dengan salah seorang pegawai tapi terpaksa delete sebab tak dibenarkan ambil, dua-dua handsome,ehem ehem. Oh ya lupa bagitau masa checking barang orang di hadapan kami tu tak bernasib baik, habis semua beg digeledah , perut pun kecut jer takut tak lepas , mulalah baca doa, hembus depan , kiri, kanan dan nasib kami memang baik semua barang makan termasuk Maggie, Bihun PAMA ,nasi goreng nasi tomato, ayam masak merah keluaran Berahim, nasi himpit NONA lepas dari sekatan, kalau tidak tak tahulah apa keluarga Ana nak makan. Ana tak bawa sebarang makanan pun sebab memang dah lama mengidam nak makan makanan Jepun, tapi kena pastikan yang HALAL. Masa berlajar di Tokyo , kena tahu baca tulisan Jepun (tulisan Kanji). 豚肉 ini tulisan kanji untuk daging khinzir atau butaniku dalam bahasa Jepun, Kalau 肉 maksudnya Niku iaitu daging. Kalau rasa was-was bawak jer makanan berkodi-kodi macam family saya.
Masa naik keretapi ke Hotel Kishibe, terjumpa orang Malaysia berbangsa Cina , apa lagi semua menjerit Malaysia BOLEH, mereka bercuti selama 10 hari, seronok sangat. Orang Jepun naik keretapi taklah bising macam kami...apa nak buat kami rakyat Malaysia yang ramah tamah tak kira apa bangsa dan agama, saling sayang menyayangi walau di mana saja berada jangan sombong, tak gitukan. Perjalanan dari Kansai Airport ke Kishibe memakan masa 1 jam 30 minit, 2 kali transit. Tapi yang bestnya, once you stepped out the station you can see the hotel about 1 minute walk, the area was so peaceful, quiet not like Tokyo, people are rushing.
Dah sampai pun Kishibe Hotel , belum masuk lagi dah posing, cuaca agak berangin dan sejuk.
Inilah Bilik 1010, buka saja pintu wah!!! memang best sangat, semuanya complete, ada meja Jepun (2 in 1) Japanese and Western Style, bilik air pun disediakan dengan Syampoo, Conditioner, Bath foam, (botol besar plak tu, kalau di Malaysia mandi 3 kali sehari, di sini maunya 4 atau 5 kali , lepas syampoo, bilas, syampoo lagi, maklumlah dah bayar mesti kena habiskan ketiga-tiga botol dalam masa 6 hari..ye tak. Shaver, Towel 4 helai (untuk lap badan, rambut, muka dan alas dalam bilik air). Tandas pulak semua otomatik, duduk saja dah flush, tak payahlah nak cerita , alamilah sendiri kehebatannya.:-)
Makan Kimchi dulu, pedas tapi sedap.
Check in pukul 2 petang, kami sampai dalam pukul 11 macam tulah, sementara nak dapat bilik, apakata saya bawa anda jalan-jalan melihat apa yang ada berhampiran dengan hotel. Tak jauh dari situ ada supermarket (Friendo- Mart), sebelah ada drug store (kusuri ya), Big Echo (Karaoke), restaurant dan kedai makan.
Musim pisang kaki rupanya,,,,nyum nyum nyum, sebiji 78 yen, 198 yen pun ada, aduh yang mana satu ni, ambil yang murahlah dulu, kalau sedap nanti beli yang mahal sikit.Alamak macammana ni semuanya nampak sedap dan fresh....ambil apple 1, pear 1, pisang kaki 1, ahhh ambik setiap satulah. Nak cari Kimchi plak.....cabbage yang dibuat jeruk pedas...terliur-liur dah ni
6.11.2012 - Lepas siap makan dan kemas barang terus keluar ke Minami Nanba tempat shopping tapi cari jalan tak jumpa so terjumpa dengan Reiko, dialah yang bagi cadangan ke Rose Garden di Yodoyabashi / Nakanoshima Park Osaka, lawatan ni tak ada dalam program kami. So hari ini nak bawa jalan-jalan di Minami Nanba, tempat terlalu besar, 1 hari pun rasa tak cukup, kaki dah mula rasa sakit tapi senyum tetap menawan hehehe, esok baru ke Rose Garden. Jom !!!
Mission sekarang adalah mencari harta karun...huh!! kedai cenderahati, gift shops atau omiyage , yelah buah tangan untuk kawan-kawan dan saudara-mara, The word, "omiyage" means souvenir or gift and is an important element of Japanese culture and you will find lots of cute omiyage and I hope to find omiyage around here in Minami Namba,,,so let's go hunting for Omiyage. Actually i am looking for something that will last long like key-chain or T-shirt or Japanese handmade so that they will always remember me :-) and keep mentioning my name so often even in their dreams..hahah. Who gave you that T.shirt bro? It's from Anna, what about the key-chain, its so pretty , don't you have any more of this, sorry sis, Anna gave me this ..hehe. .........Hey!! you went to Japan with Anna, and why are you asking me about the stuff. So you want to know what she said... Yes I did and i bought some Japanese cookies back , they only mentioned my name on the first day they finished all the cookies!! Zannen deshita!! ;-0... Ohhh well I have been wondering around and around for 3 hours , my feet hurts, and I couldn't find any omiyage yet. Should I ask or not? What am I going to say, say it in English or Japanese, anoo! sumimasen, chotto kikitai koto ga arun deskedo, kono hen wa key-chain holder utteru mise wa arimasuka? So he gave me the direction to dotonbori but he wasn't sure if there were any shops selling key-chain holder. They are all very nice and helpful , どうもありがとうございました.
Meninjau-ninjau kawasan di Minami Namba , mencari omiyage / souveniour
Cari tak jumpa ...kita posinglah dulu
Ini area Dotombori, lebih cantik dengan lampu-lampu dan papan iklan yang besar

7.11.2012 - Omiyage belum jumpa, hati dah mula bimbang nih. Hari ini dah ada planning nak ke Yodoyabashi / Nakanoshima, melihat "Rose Garden" di Osaka. I am a nature's lover and taking pictures is one of my hobbies beside fishing. Pemandangan di sekitarnya sangat cantik dan menarik dan kami sempat mengambil gambar sebagai kenangan.
Kami berjalan disepanjang sungai sehinggalah ke Osaka City Central Public Hall yang tersergam indah. Saya lihat ada sekumpulan kanak-kanak dan pelukis yang mengabdikan lukisan Osaka City Central Public Hall dan sempat juga adik ipar saya merakamkan gambar mereka.
OSAKA CITY CENTRAL PUBLIC HALL
Cuaca agak sejuk , walaupun panas matahari tapi tidak mematahkan semangat kami untuk meninjau kawasan sekitar yang sungguh cantik dengan daun kekuningan dan kemerah-merahan. Bangunan pencakar langit yang terletak bersebelahan dengan sungai begitu indah dan keadaan sekeliling yang bersih dari sampah sarap. Bertanya juga dalam hati kalaulah negeriku sebegini bersih alangkah bahagianya....:-)Pokok pangkalnya masyarakat sendiri seharusnya memainkan peranan yang penting bagi memastikan negara mereka bersih dan aman.
wow banyaknya air tapi yang paling saya suka olon cha, miruku tea, kohi (black coffee) , ehh fanta grape punya air pun ada, ingatkan kat Malaysia jer.Kalau dah suka bergambar kat mana2 pun boleh walaupun depan mesin air , tak rugi apa pun asalkan bahagia
If you like to travel alone or with families and you LOVE taking pictures of yourself, you should bring along a tripod so that you don't have to bothers anyone whose rushing to the office :-) and you can pose naturally, like I did..hahha.
Dalam banyak-banyak gambar ini yang paling saya suka, adik ipar sibuk mengambil gambar garden jadi saya guna tripod dan ambil gambar kami bertiga. My sister, my mom and me, this was the best photo that I really like
This would be the 2nd...well yeaa.....don't think so
Nak cuba tarian Gangnam Style kat Jepun plak.
Like I said used your tripod so that you can pose the way you like it ahaks ahaks. Does it look like Gangnam Style to you..!!! Nope I don't think so myself
Now we are going into the Rose Garden, we did take a few pictures of roses...Let me show you around and you probably be amazed with varieties of roses which I did too.
Orange : Passionate desire, pure enthusiasm and fascination, an excellent choice for a new relationship
Smells of roses everywhere and there are varieties of roses which can be found here, red, pink, white, orange, purple , yellow and many more and makes me feel so alive and forget everything for a second , just you Roses and Me...So sudden I thought why do people gives roses to their loved ones. As far as I know there are so many flowers and why choose roses? Because of the sweet smells maybe, there must be a meaning hidden which makes me wanted to know more and I did some research in the internet and found this useful tips to share. And if I am wrong about it please do leave a comments. Thank You.
Pink : The Rose of Sweet Thought
Dark Pink
Red : Sincere Love and Respect, Courage and passion
What if someone send this to you in the middle of boring day at work? Wouldn't it be thrilled and lots of surprised. Not only 1 but 11 roses or more then one. There's must be a meaning Number of Roses, 3 roses meaning I LOVE YOU, wow!!! I want more then :-) I do hope everyone will get at least 1 red rose by the end of this year and If not , you can always buy one lol.
Yellow : signify friendship, joy, freedom, gladness, so why not send yellow roses to brighten up someone's day. I want one too!!!
Beautiful beautiful, can you imagine a world without flowers. Roses and Me forever! Me and Roses! what else can I say, What if you received all colour of roses each in a bouquet , hemmm what it means...?? should advice him to see a doctor ?
Lebih kurang 1 jam kami berada di
sini, rasanya masih tidak mencukupi kerana kawasannya agak luas dan saya hanya sempa mengambil beberapa keping gambar untuk dikongsi bersama. Sekiranya anda meminati bunga jangan lepaskan peluang berkunjung ke Rose Garden sebuah taman yang cantik, bersih, udarannya nyaman dan yang paling penting anda boleh melihat berbagai jenis bunga rose yang dijaga cukup rapi. Minat melukis , minat mengambil gambar bunga atau duduk bersantai di taman yang bersebelahan dengan sungai sambil menhghirup udara segar. Di sinilah tempatnya..
Selamat Tinggal Rose Garden...I will definately be back.
Tosabirigawa ( River )
Walk along this river till you reached Osaka City Central and continue walking to the Rose Garden, Have a nice trip to everyone and if you have been here and have some pictures to share , do leave your blog link ..thank you
