JAPAN, when the DREAM came true (1st episode)

Hello my blogger friends

Its like a dream came true, that was what I feel when I got the chance to visit Japan. Why I'm so admiring wiith Japan, the one of so many reasons is because Japan has "Snow", so simple and thats why I visited Japan in Winter.  

ok, lets us see what WIKIPEDIA said about Japan ; Japan is a stratovolcanic archipelago consisting of about 6,852 islands. The four largest are Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku, which make up about ninety-seven percent of Japan's land area and often are referred to as home islands. The country is divided into 47 prefectures in eight regions. Hokkaido being the northernmost prefecture and Okinawa being the southernmost one. The population of 127 million is the world's tenth largest. Japanese people make up 98.5% of Japan's total population. Approximately 9.1 million people live in the core city of Tokyo, the capital of Japan.

This was our longest flight journey ever, it took about 7 hours form Kuala Lumpur to Narita, ups Kuala Lumpur, Im Indonesian, why i'm choosing flight from Kuala Lumpur? the answer is because this was the longest flight journey ever and i'm taking my 3 years little girl, so i had to make sure that everything was so comfortable for her. So, for this time, I'm prefer ANA (All Nippon Airways) than low cost budget airlines. How about the cost, isn't it so expensive? yap its right, in total, if we compare with budget airline, the ANA flight cost was expensive but its worth cause everything was free and comfortable here and thats why i'm choosing Kuala Lumpur because its cheaper (+/- IDR 20 million include the flight Jakarta -KL-Jakarta /4 person) if we compare with the ANA flight from Jakarta (+/- IDR 25 million /4 person). 

We, our family, departed from Jakarta to Kuala Lumpur in Dec 31st , 2016 at 12 pm with Lion Air, transit here in Kuala Lumpur for one day and then goes to Tokyo in Jan 1st, 2017. We're taking 1 day transit tour in Kuala Lumpur because I want everything was fine and comfortable for my kids especially for my little girl and also to avoiding the delay flight from Jakarta and also we stay at Tune Hotel KLIA2 cause the ANA flight to Tokyo was departed at 8am. We spent the New Year Eve in Kuala Lumpur, its my first overseas New Years Eve. 

How about the hotel? its new years holiday, isn't it will be very expensive to stay in Tokyo? Actually, its strictly right, all the hotel in Tokyo for Jan 1st, 2017 was set the highest price. So, i decided to stay in different hotel in Tokyo to get the cheaper hotel price, here was the detail :
- Mystay Kameido Tokyo (Jan 1st to Jan 3rd, 2017) for IDR 1.999.952,-/2 nights
- APA Hotel Shiomi Tokyo (Jan 3rd to Jan 7th, 2017) for IDR 2.940.000,-/4 nights
- APA Kanazawa (Jan 7th to Jan 8th,2017) for IDR 1.600.000,-/night
- Ibis Style Kyoto (Jan 8th to Jan 14th,2017) IDR 6.000.000,-/6 nights with breakfast

So many new travel experience here, from taking 5 star airline for first time, the longet flight journey ever and also feel the first Snow in Japan, wanna know my whole experience in Japan? see my next episodes, bye
