Japan Day-4 : Odaiba - Decks Tokyo Beach

10/08/09

Odaiba is a place in Japan with numerous attractions including museums, shopping and entertainment centres.

A perfect place to go during rainy day~..

If you're thinking why the pic on the left remind you the statue of liberty~..

~.. its because the mini replica can be found in Odaiba. (picture taken at night, at times like this, i really wish i have a good camera)

At the most front seat of Yurikamome train on the way to Odaiba

(total journey 12pounds - B$29)
Odaiba!

Lunch here~..

1280yen (8pounds-B$19) for Soba+tempura set

Expensive but it was the best meal... ever! :P
Dippin' Dots ice cream for dessert

Spent the whole day at Decks Tokyo Beach - a 7-storey shopping centre packed with interest!

4th floor - Daiba Icho-me Shotengai (Old Japan)

This place takes you back in time!

The 1st thing i saw~ arcade!

Old stuffs that you get to play!

Looking around, everythings re-created based on the past

Then there are stores filled with stuffs you no longer see anywhere else anymore. (if ur a japanese that is...)
Jeri wanted to be drawn~ *_*

2000yen for 2 person. (only 6.4pounds, B$15 each.. so why not?)

Tada~! Same or not?
Many people were after the LUCKY BOXES (300yen) which contain mysterious prices (if you're lucky enough, u'll get an ipod or an xbox or a wii!!).

We decided to try our luck.

And this is what we got~...
There's 1 store that sells beetles~... these insects are quite popular as pets during summer in Japan.

Mostly cost around 500yen (3.2pounds - B$7.5)... but some are very expensive according to their sizes and strength.

Well thats it

Next, he headed to the 5th floor where you can find the MUSCLE PARK.
These place test your strength and mental capability~..

On the 6th and 7th floor~... you will reach

Daiba Little Hong Kong!
There's a lot of restaurants here!

From 5pm onwards, we spent our whole time at Sega's Joypolis entertainment centre which situated in the same building just opposite to the other stores.

Entry fee is 2,500yen (16pounds,B$38) if from 5pm, whole day is 3500yen.

3 floors high tech amusement park consist of virtual reality games, stimulators and indoor roller coasters. The 3D cinema and virtual reality rides are impressive noting the fact they have wind effect as well.

(I tried Wild Wing in which ur as if riding a real plane because of the wind, but then, i find the Dark Chapel more impressive since I could feel the heat from the 3D fire shot)

The virtual ski is my favoarite :P but we have to que for 2 hours to play this awesome game. The couple with most spins wins the game.
We didnt have enough!!
