I went to Jaxa!!! (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) Part 1

Dear everyone,
Today I went to Jaxa Tsukuba Space Center!!!
Cool right?! It's REALLY I meant REALLY fun!

Dear semuanya,
Hari ini aku pergi ke Jaxa Tsukuba Space Center!!!
Keren gak sih?! Ini itu SANGAT maksudku SANGAT keren!!!!

I will tell the story from the beginning okay? Now, take a good read!

Aku akan ceritakan semuanya dari awal ok? Sekarang baca baik-baik ya!


When the bus stopped in front of our school, the teachers split us to two group.
First group is for the kindergarden and elementary school students, and the second group is for the Junior High School and High School students.

Saat busnya berhenti di depan sekolah kita, para guru membelah kita menjadi dua kelompok.
Kelompok pertama untuk anak TK dan SD, sementara kelompok kedua untuk anak SMP dan SMA.
Alasan mereka membuat dua kelompok adalah karena penjelasan kelompok kedua akan lebih susah




The bus lead us to a cozy place to relax, and wait 'till we arrived in Jaxa.
They even gave us entertainment (a film )

Busnya menuntun kita ke ruangan yang nyaman untuk bersantai dan menunggu sampai kita sampai di Jaxa
Mereka bahkan memberikan kita hiburan (film Doraemon )




There's two seats per two persons, and I choose to sit with Asha my BFF >.
Di dalam bus hanya ada 2 kursi per baris, jadi aku memilih duduk dengan Asha my BFF >.



On the way, it seems that our "neighbor" really enjoy the trip in the bus!

Pada saat perjalanan, kelihatannya "tetangga" kita sangat menikmati perjalanannya!




Do you know Miss Theresa (our english teacher) is also coming!!!!!
Well, it's not really hard to find her in the bus just search a big flower >.<

Tahu gak Miss Theresa (guru bahasa inggris) juga ikut loh!
Miss Theresa itu gak susah dicari cari aja bunga besar di dalam bus >.<


You see her?!
Yup, that's right! It's her!!!!

Apa kamu melihat dia?!
Yap benar, itu dia!




From my seat, you can see the four boys in my classroom
Trouble (Holga), Peacemaker (Alvin), Booger (Ota), Mermaid (Harsa) LOL!!

Dari tempat dudukku, kalian bisa melihat 4 laki-laki yang ada di kelasku
Trouble (Holga), Peacemaker (Alvin), Booger (Ota), Duyung (Harsa) LOL!!




At last!!! We arrived in Jaxa!!!
Now, we're waiting for other people in the waiting room

Akhirnya!!! Kita sampai di Jaxa!!!
Sekarang kita menunggu yang lain di ruang tunggu




Now, we're all hearing the explanation of Jaxa in Japanese =.="
But luckily one of our teacher translated it into Indonesian!

Sekarang kita semua mendengarkan penjelasan tentang Jaxa dalam bahasa Jepang =.="
Tapi untungnya salah satu guru kita menterjemahkannya ke bahasa Indonesia!




Maybe you ask... "Where are we? "
We're inside the museum right now!!! You can see we all staring at the huge globe while hearing the information

Mungkin kalian bertanya... "Di mana kita?"
Kita berada di dalam museum sekarang!!! Kalian bisa lihat kita semua berada di depan globe yang besar banget, sementara mendengarkan informasi

Our Adventure in Takao-san (ENGLISH ONLY)

Takao-san means Takao mountain. We were hiking there.
It's a lot of fun and adventure. If you go to Japan I suggest you must go there before leaving Japan.
Let's begin the story....


When we were hiking, we felt really tired (we're not even hiking 1 km yet =o=" )
So we found this street vendor not really fabulous, but delicious place to eat fresh fish! Yum


This is the fish that we will eat
They put the aquarium so we know that fish is fresh! LOL!!
This is before the poor fish is grilled


This is when the fish is grilled
I just couldn't see the fish when a living poor fish will be grilled
Aaahhhh! Such a horror for them (the fishes)!!!
I'm sorry I ate you because you are too delicious! LOL!!



If you want to see the fish closer,
I will zoom it!
Do you see it?


"Ehhmmmm, mom.... are you sure it is okay to eat this poor fish?"
Well, i know it's NOT dangerous, but still we ate a poor Little fish

Okay, let's stop talking about this fishy thingy!
Then.....
We were continuing our hiking



Now, we must ride a cable car!
This is the entrance,
But sorry i didn't take a single picture inside the cable car


I took this picture after we're done riding the cable car
Isn't it beautiful?
Looking below the Takao-san


Me and Tiyi touched the lucky octopus!
After that, we put a coin beside the octopus :D


Then we continue our hiking
When we were hiking we look at the monk cemetery
Bbrrr, kind of creepy don't you think?


A shrine that we saw when we were hiking
Cool eh?




Pray? The names of a monk who died?
Well, I don't know
For this one please figure out yourself!


Aaaahh, a monster!!!
Wait, it's only a statue!
Am I a drama queen or what?!


Me and Tiyi inside the temple
We washed our hand with the holly water


The temple in Takao -san
But, I can't go inside
So I don't have the picture inside okay?


Me and Tiyi were posing on the stairs at the temple entrance
Cool right? LOL

We're now living Takao-san
Bye bye Takao-san!
See you again! It's been a wonderful hiking experience
I agree that Takao-san bring lots of memory to people that come there!
