Sorry it's been so long since my last update. Been so busy juggling over my full-time job, my girl, and my daily routine.
Here I wanna share about our trip to Japan in November 2019 when she was 15 months old.
(YES IKR, WE ALL MISS TRAVELLING 😭)
Hope this Covid-19 will leave soon, although I know, it's gonna take years to open up travelling freedom again.
Okay, heads up, the main purpose of this trip was to
surprise my Aunt who's residing in Tokyo, Japan.
So..... we don't really have a tour itinerary planned out just like our Taiwan trip.
It was more to a family gathering/catch up.
Day 1
We flew with Japan Airlines.
We took an overnight flight, departing at 01:50hrs, arriving in Japan in the morning.
Hoping that my girl would sleep throughout the flight and won't fuss.
Check in your stroller at the Gate with no worries!
And travelling with a <2 years old makes you PRIORITY. 😄
On board the flight, the stewardess gave me a bag of goodies for my girl!
Merries diaper, banana, baby crackers. Wonderful~!
They even gave her a free gift: JAL toy aeroplane
Once again, make good use of the benefits of travelling with a <2 years old!
Request for a bassinet seat and get the front seat for free!
Baby meal~! Looks OK, but it's tasty~!
Arrived at Tokyo Haneda Airport
Temperature: 18°C
A great transport option to head to your destination would be this...
We took the limousine (Coach) to Kasai at ¥1050 (S$13) per person.
A Taxi in Tokyo would have cost alot more!
We stayed in Hotel Il Fiore Kasai
The room is small, but well, we prioritize the location...
She lovessss cold weather....
By night time, my Aunt brought us to this wonderful place for dinner.
Kid's meal for my little one~!
This Mini Cup Noodles is so cute~
Day 2
Temperature: 15°C
Ito-Yokado Ario Kasai Store
I realised that in Japan malls, it's common to have temporary stroller for public use!
She loves Japanese rice....
The Nursing Room in the Mall is so nice.
They even have separate basins for hand washing and bottle washing
Weighing scale for your baby, wow.
You can measure your baby's height too!
and a miniature toilet for your child's usage!
Okay on a serious note, parent travelling to Japan with your child,
if your child is wearing Merries/Mamypoko/GOO.N etc, those are Japan diapers.
You can actually buy them in Japan. Don't be so silly like me who stocked up 3 packets of Merries from Singapore and fly to Japan, only to realise that the Merries diapers are so much cheaper there~! 😭
Home's Kasai Store
See? Plenty! Why Singapore don't have.... lol
OMG. the kid's clothing, food, items here are so CHEAP! Whack ar~!
My cousin sister cooked dinner~!
Dropped by this supermarket on our way back to the hotel...
Temperature: 12°C (night)
Liked I've mentioned in my Taiwan trip post, to go to cold country, it is a must to have stroller rain cover to protect the cold wind and to keep your child warm, but make sure to check that it's not too warm in there, remove a jacket if it's not too cold, don't fully zip up the cover. Usually I leave some gap for cold air to enter.
Day 3
Temperature: 15°C

Sunny Mall Nishi-Kasai
Cafe Restaurant Gusto (ガスト 西葛西店)
Family-friendly restaurant! Kid's meal for my girl~

This is how the Japanese make mochi from scratch.
Day 6
Temperature: 18°CYou can find these formula milk in Department store, Kids section.
They don't sell Brands like NAN, Dumex, etc. So better bring your own.
Baby instant food!
Sogo Park @ Urayasu City 浦安市総合公園
Day 7
Temperature: 16°C
Tokyo Disneyland!!!!
As you can see from this photo, to bring a toddler out on a whole day fun,
I gotta bring "big bag small bag", but it's worth it~!
There are Stroller Parking areas all over the park outside the rides.
Don't hesitate, just park there, it's okay! But please don't leave your valuable there.
kid's meal!
