Op.13 No.4

Initially my friend had helped me revamp my blog page. But I think it lack of originality as Cloud Strife from FF VII Advent Children is pictured inside. Though I'm into FF VII, I prefer my blog page is something I created. One of my friend requested me to write down my trip to Japan. It's almost 3 weeks since returned. Hopefully my memories are still fresh.

On 23rd October 2005, I finally get to go abroad after my regimental service. The last trip I went was to Genting Highlands back in early 2003. The take off was 2330 hrs. Almost 6 hours of flight, the plane touched down at Narita Airport at 0620 hrs. Japan's time is an hour ahead of us. After passing the customs, the tour guide lead everyone to the coach. The first destination went was Hakone. About 4 hours of travelling time, we reached the destination. Our drop off point has a very big lake, with hills of green trees set as the background. One or two maple trees were spotted with its leaves turning red. As it's Autumn, the atmosphere was very cooling. Around 15 degrees celsius. Embraced by warm sunlight, the scene is beautiful. After lunch, we proceed to Odaiba's Peace Park. A shrine dedicated to Lord Buddha is the center of attraction. Visiting a live volcano was next. Steams are emitted from ground. The whole area smells sulphuric. But when up at part of its peak, it seems you are in high up in the sky looking down at god's creation. Nature. Before dusk, we went to Mount Fuji. The coach brought us up to Mount Fuji's 5th station. Its peak is magnificent. Little areas of it is covered with snow as Winter is approaching. When sunset falls, the whole place turn into an orange scene. Cool wind blowing and orange clouds are so clear in front of my view. A lovely romantic view. Enchanting. Makes me feel I'm in heavens. Anyone will melt in a scenery like this. Too beautiful to be described with words. It's best to see it with your very very own eyes.

Will stop here today. Actually I have something else to write. But then, I felt should write my trip events down before it faded off my mind. Will continue the rest in my next entry...........
