A Short Trip in Japan. Part 1
Recently, I made a short trip to Japan as part of my company incentive. Period of my travel was from 06 Jan 09 to 12 Jan 09.
The flight I took landed on Nagoya airport is located beside the open sea. Talk about stow away making a run for the plan. For Singapore to Japan, the flight time is about 7 hour and the first impression I have upon alighting the plan and waiting to hop on the bus to the airport lobby is ‘Cold’.
Temperature is under 10 deg and the occasional wind make it all the colder. Checking in and out was a breeze and the airport is clean and spacious like others I visit.
After checking out, we were to take a 3hr coach to Osaka where the hotel is.
Nagoya strike me of as a smaller town with dotted farm land and high tech factory found all together. The building and houses are located sparsely apart, giving it a open non clustered feel.
I was told that Nagoya consist of several island and thus there’s lots of bridges the coach was driving across. View is great to a urban concrete dweller like me with the blue sea at the near distance.
During the bus journey, we had a ‘pit stop’ like from Singapore to Genting, where I have a early lunch over a bowl of ramee. Jap Noodles. Its a simple dish which I bought over the vending machine.
There’s no waiter/ waitress to take order so its insert notes / coins into the vending machine and press what you want. The order is then transmitted wireless to the kitchen which will shout out our order once it’s ready. A bowl of ramee range from 500 yen to 700 yen.
