JESSICA IN TOKYO | DAY 8 | ODAIBA

Hello bunnies! Welcome back to this little space, where I would force feed you with some things you may not even bother about lolol. Today, I'm going to continue blogging about my trip in Tokyo. If you are new to my blog and are interested to read more about my Tokyo trip, feel free to click on the label "J-Tokyo" on the right, then you will be redirected to a page full of my posts regarding my trip in Tokyo. 

Let's just get started.

So today I'm going to blog about Odaiba, an interesting city with all kinds of discovery and adventure lurking around every corner!

Grabbed ourselves a quick and light breakfast in a cafeteria located near the MRT station. The coffee was so good!!  

We ride on the Odaiba Rainbow Bus to Odaiba (duh..) because it's a cheaper alternative compared to the MRT. (Thank you Melanie and her family for all these tips!)

Here we were in Odaiba!! Meet the colorful, 115-meter tall ferris wheel, Daikanransha (which literally means big wheel in Japanese)!

Lucky for us, we had the pleasure to see the latest Toyota car models in the Toyota Mega Web, a giant Toyota showroom that showcases all of Toyota's latest models, car accessories and their respective technologies. Best part is, admission is free for all visitors!

Situated beside Toyota Mega Web is Tokyo Leisureland, a huge entertainment complex featuring a large video game arcade, Purikura machines, bowling alleys, karaoke, darts, sports games, etc!!

There are so many Purikura machines here! Sayonara spare change LOL!

Welcome to Venus Fort, which actually isn't quite a fort but a really fancy shopping mall. Everywhere you turn, you will meet beautifully designed architecture in the style of a 18th century South European town. 

I felt as if I was visiting Europe instead of Tokyo when I was here!
#JustCheatingMyselfAgain 

In Venus Fort, there are hundreds of shops: including a Nike outlet , fashion boutiques, souvenir shops, cafes and restaurants. Somehow I didn't manage to get anything from the Nike outlet because there's nothing worth buying there..

Kiddy Land is a famous souvenir shop selling authentic merchandises.
Surprisingly, it took me more than 1 hour to shop for souvenirs for my friends and family, and also you, my readers!! There are simply so many choices everywhere that the section of your brain which usually makes decision by logical reasoning - Will. Definitely. Fail.

Then, we visited a huge pet shop in the lowest ground floor in the shopping mall!! The best thing about this pet shop is that you can request to carry and play with the puppies!!! 

Omg look how cute this little thing is!!! 

Aw hello there cutie!!! 

So tiny. So fluffy. So adwowuble. 

While I was busy fawning over the innocent faces of the cute puppies, my mum was busy shopping for new clothes and accessories for Lucky. The clothes were not really cheap though!!

After bidding adieu to the puppies (very, very reluctantly), we walked to Diver City, which is a shopping mall located within a stone's throw from Venus Fort. Not just a haven for shopaholics, Diver City also boasts a lot of international fashion boutiques and restaurants! In Odaiba, you can shop till you literally drop. 

Oh and there's a life-sized Gundam guarding the main entrance of Diver City!! Mention "Big Gundam", any Japanese in the world will know you're referring to Diver City, haha!

Not totally immobile (in case you think so), the Gundam is also able to turn his head left and right! HOW COOL IS THAT! 

Hello Kitty pancakes, anyone? 

This section is for spoiling the Gundam fans! 

Literally stopping every few steps to take photos lolol. "Capture every moment of your life" they say. HAHAHA. 

Look, it's Odaiba's very own Statue of Liberty! Apparently, the French replica of the Statue of Liberty was built to commemorate the "French Year in Japan".

Behind us was the famous Rainbow Bridge, an enormous suspension bridge that connects Tokyo with the man-made island of Odaiba. 

Coca-cola merchandise shop in Aqua City. Never seen anything like this before. It really makes me wonder if in another country on the other side of the globe, are there Sprite or Pepsi merchandise shops too?

#ExcuseToTravelAgain

Aw, don't cry little bears! 

A kick-ass panorama view of the Odaiba Rainbow Bridge. Pure eyegasm.

Dinner in Tsukiji Sushiko in Aqua City!

The price of the sushi here is more atas than Genki Sushi, which I have introduced in my previous Tokyo posts. 

I couldn't recall which set we actually ordered lol but the sushi was great. The ingredients tasted fresh-out-of-the-ocean fresh!

So happy that we got to end our night with some authentic Japanese sushi!! 

Odaiba is absolutely worth a visit! Don't worry that the picky someone in your gang won't find Odaiba rewarding - Odaiba has something for everyone. And you definitely won't regret for visiting this beautiful place!

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for my next blog post! :)
