Travel Japan: Odaiba

Tokyo (Palette Town)

Since we were spending more time in Tokyo, we decided to travel a little further out to see Tokyo Bay which was snuggly at this place called Palette Town. So we left our nice nice hotel here in Narita to head over to our destination.

Narita Port Hotel

On reaching Palette, the first place I wanted to go to was the Toyota City Showcase which was housed there. They had recently launched their 2010 GSports Series and I wanted to have the first glance at it! But before, We got the chance to use simulators to race on an F1 track in a GTR, playing Grand Turismo 4! HOT! By the way, you could also take any Toyota there for a test drive!

Driving the simulator was not as easy as I thought it would be. I kind of crashed many times into the sides and rolled over grass patches. This won't be good if I was really racing in my own car. LOL. No way would mom ever allow me to use the car again, I guess. But moving on from the simulators, let's see the cars on displays!

Latest Sports Series

Other GSports Toyota's (Never To Be Seen In SG Though)

These cars are mostly having body kit's adorned in carbon fibre. They all look super nice. Jealous that I would not be able to own any of these cool units. But maybe one of these smaller cars? Hah, looking dumb!

But well, they also did up many show case units in the cutest ways! Look at the cars all dolled up!

BLING!

Models

Well, cars are just one of the most popular accessories that the Japanese have and I had my fair share of watching sports cars take the road during my stay there. Here are some of the cars that we managed to snap.

But to finally move on from the car craze, we then went into the Palette town outlets to shop! Well, didn't come out with anything much, but the Victorian decoration in there was the bomb. Besides that, there were cute shops such as Lego, as well as brands such as Coach, Burberry, LV and more. At this point of time, I could only wish I had lot's of money lol...

Ending off the shopping we then headed to the next attraction in Palette Town. Besides that giant Ferry's wheel on the top of the building, there was something else that we were heading towards while strolling along Tokyo Bay.

Walking To Our Destination

Ok, we did more then just walk there straight and stopped for a few photo's in the parks there, but well, we finally reached the convention centre where the annual anime festival is held. I missed the opportunity to attend the convention this year, but well, there is always next time.

The Giant Saw Outside The CC

Ok, so it was time to get back and we headed towards the station. But before that, we went past hotels and the Panasonic Building which was filled with DS's to play with! Awesome. The best thing was that the receptionist was totally beautiful. But sorry guys, no pictures!

Panasonic Tokyo

Well, that kind of summed up today and It was really quite fun taking the sub out all the way to Palette. But stay tuned people, tomorrow would be coverage back in town. See ya'll soon!
