Tokyo DisneySea


So I got the chance to visit DisneySea! DisneaySea Tokyo is the one only DisneySea in the world. Meanwhile, DisneyLand have several "branches" at Florida, Tokyo, Hong Kong, etc. When I had this rare chance, I chose DisneySea of course because of this specialty.

I went to DisneySea with the daughter of my CEO, Mika and her friend. What the funny thing is: we went to DisneySea together but they didn't speak English at all meanwhile I didn't understand any Japanese! >< So communication was barely hard because of language barrier. We used LINE translator-bot for speaking to each other. When I typed English, the bot automatically translating to Japanese, and vice versa.

We arrived in DisneySea at 7.30am even when it hadn't opened yet. Many people queued for the opening of DisneySea. It opened at 8.00am, and also it was holiday period too for elementary and high-schooler so we expected it would be crowded!

We rode nearly all roller coaster (there are five!), and free fall attraction, and some other easy ride like merry-go-round. We got fast-pass ticket so we didn't have to take a line. Overall it was fun!

I don't want to write a lot so here are the photos.

Selfie!


DisneySea was really crowded. Look at the people.

We ate lunch after it was all over.

Spaghetti!
I finished at 1.30pm, then they continue the DisneySea games. I went home because I need to transfer my dormitory to another place. Unfortunately one of my luggage was broken (the blue one) so I have to carry it on hand instead of rolling it using wheel :(

After tired of moving the stuffs, I ate dinner for the first time at Matsuya LOL

Playing at Game Center in Shibuya


That was the last week I had been in Japan, near the end of my internship period, so I and other AIESEC Incoming Exchange project members decided to hang out sometimes.

We played at game center in Shibuya! Shibuya and Akihabara had so many game centers like this. This one is I liked the most, it was like FPS but with real gun, and played by two persons. If we shooted the same object, our damage will be stronger. The photo is above. It was really fun, I like it!

And then we tried other game as well, like Mario Kart, boxing. After an hour, we went home.

Keigo was ready to punch!

VR shooting game, but so expensive.


We ate curry at station before going to home

Minato Sport Center


After working hour, my seniors in campus invited me to take sports. We went to Minato Sport Center. You can find it here.
https://www.google.co.id/maps/place/Minato-ku+Sports+Center/@35.646626,139.7496081,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x60188bb58e1dddff:0xbb12c1f5d6b23a6c!8m2!3d35.646626!4d139.7517968?hl=en

I met Habibi (IF11) and Kak Ical (IF09) at Tamachi station then we walked to the sport center. They are my seniors in campus from the same major with me.

It's a 8-floor building consists of indoor sport facility, and pretty complete. They have pool, basketball, volley, indoor jogging track, hall for martial arts, badminton, and table tennis. Entry fee is ¥500. And you can enjoy all the facilities there.

We jogged around the volleyball field, then played badminton for an hour, then played table tennis.

Fun fact: back in some years ago, I and Habibi usually played table tennis in campus at spare time. Even, we went to the same table tennis tournament at college-level as representation of Informatics major. It was somewhat memorable when we played table tennis again some years later, thousands km from our campus and home country.

Volleyball and indoor running track around the field.
Ready to smash your ball.


There were 18 tables for table tennis. 

After some sports, we ate at Genki Sushi. It was already midnight 12.00am when we separated away. Luckily I still able to catch the last train.

Sushi Dinner at Roppongi



We had a last day dinner party because my intern period would finished soon. Actually my last day was July 31st, but because our CEO had a business trip to Philippines so we held a last-day party at July 25th. We ate sushi at one of restaurant at Roppongi.

Look at that!

After that, we went to Maid Darts with some office colleagues. Maid Darts, not Maid Cafe. It was similar, but for dart, not cafe. We played darts with the onee-san along there. It was so fun. I won twice.

Tokyo Tower View from WTC Building. Inokashira Park


Aku sama Wira ketemu di stasiun Kichijoji trus jalan ke pasar di sekitar stasiun (lupa nama pasarnya apa). Banyak orang jual oleh-oleh. Aku beli teh hijau di sana. Banyak orang jual makanan, bau harum karaage semerbak sambil kamu jalan di pasar ini. Gang-gang pasar kadang sempit, kadang luas. Berbeda dengan image pasar Indonesia yang umumnya kotor, sampah berserakan, yang kukagumi, ini bersih banget.

Sudut pasar. Lampion merah di pinggiran.

Karena laper dan jam makan siang, kita mampir ke salah satu warung ramen. Sedap.

Ramen

Abis itu kita ke Inokashira Park. Sesungguhnya park ini super indah kalau musim semi karna ada cherry blossom yang sangat Jejepangan itu. Begini contohnya.



Tapi karena lagi summer, inilah wajah Inokashira Park. Daunnya hijau. Sangat refreshing. Sejuk dan segar. Sesimpel jalan ke taman aja sebahagia ini lho.



Shrine di dalem park

Dan ternyata ada Ghibli Museum di sini.


Setelah itu kita bingung mau ngapain. Akhirnya kita memutuskan makan-makan aja. Kita menuju ke daerah Harajuku pake kereta. Di sana kita ke warung okonomiyaki yang Wira udah pernah ke sana. Dan somehow kita ketemu waiter orang Bali.


Okonomiyaki. Semacam martabak tapi Jejepangan.

Ini lupa apa namanya. Bahan baku kecambah. Gurih, rada licin. Tapi enak parah, nagih.

Abis itu masih di Harajuku, kita makan es krim Gomaya Kuki, The World's Richest Sesame Ice Cream. Sesungguhnya emang beneran cuma es krim dan ada wijen (sesame) yang kita bisa tabur sendiri. Dan ada sirup maple juga. Enak sih.

Hari menjelang sore, kita segera menuju ke WTC Building buat lihat matahari terbenam. Kita naik ke lantai 42, emang ada service untuk sightseeing dari lantai teratas gedung ini. Ada teleskop, pot tempat ini bisa disewa buat nikahan :O

Suasana senjanya beneran pas sih. Kita dapet graduasi langit dari rada terang, sampe gelap. Dan kita bisa lihat Tokyo Tower dari sini.

Photoshoot luv luv. 
Tokyo scenery di senja. Bonus lintasan shinkansen.
