DAY 1 JAPAN TRIP

QWSS JAPAN TRIP 2007
DAY 1

Our meeting place were at Changi airport terminal 1 at around 9pm in the evening....
However, most of us were early, we reached the airport about 15 minutes earlier... Then, we did our check-in... The airport staff kept questioning me about my surname, which is not stated in my passport itself...and the fact is that i am surname-less...while for danial's, he's kept being asked on why his name is very long : DANIAL MIRZA RAZZY BIN ABDUL RAZAK... LMAO...

Oh yes, by the way there were lots of parents sending their children off ....There were also some teachers too...Oh ya, i managed to see MRS TAN (Mr Gary Tan's wife)...lolz...
After checking-in which was about 9.35pm, we were given time to do bid goodbye to our family members until 10.00pm.... while as for some of us,whose parents had already left or we came alone,we chit-chatted with each other and at the same time,we learned a few japanese languages from the tour agency's staff...

(a few of us before the departure)
Soon, time had passed and we procceded in to the immigration checkpoints... in which after that, we were given time to roam around the airport and reached the gate by 10.45pm...
Tingwei, danial and I walked together and instead of roaming around the airport, we took our time walking to the gate...while joking around the trevelator* (moving belt) well the gate was very very far !!!!! we were the first to reach there and therefore with the remaining time, we played UNO with poker cards.... yup it was fun... soon, we were instructed to check-in... and there's a person caught for having scissors in his hand-held bag... and he had to give up the ownership of the scissors...

While waiting for the business class passengers to board the plane, some of us went to make good use the free-airport phone call....
then we boarded the plane...







It was my first experience boarding a high class plane..."ANA" and firstly, the three section seats amazed me.... Then at around 11.25pm, the plane gradually made its way to the runway and it took off.....


Every seat has a mini screen infront of it, we were free to use the remote according to our preferences..we could watch movies, short clips, play games, listen to musics or even look at the surrounding using the live-camera....I began pressing the remote and yup ...watched a movie..... its a Japanese movie called DORORO .... quite an interesting movie.... soon the next day came..when the time struck 12am sharp in the morning...
