Untuk sampai ke last station sebelum menaiki shuttle bus ke museum adalah di Nobotori Station. 

Dari rumah, kami turun di Shinjuku Station and follow direction ke Odakyu Line

Teruskan berjalan dan touch in ticket untuk menunggu train di platform #4

Boleh semak jadual next train dalam pukul berapa dengan menggunakan "hypermedia" apps

Yeayy!! train sudah sampai. Train ini menuju ke arah Odawara

Sila turun di sini untuk menaiki shuttle bus ke museum

Maaf, saya tak boleh nak recall exit mana satu, tapi saya cari yang ada signboard buses and Taxis seperti dalam gambar ni.

Turun dari tangga di atas, akan jumpa bus stop.  Tapi bukan yang tu, tengok sket jauh ke depan. Cari bas biru muda yang parking berada di hadapan bangunan seperti di dalam gambar

Info mengenai kekerapan dan tambang shuttle bus ke museum

Sebab bas bertemakan Doraemon dan kawan-kawan. Kawaii desu neh..

Dalam bas masa kami naik dah penuh, terpaksa la dukung si bongsu ni

Shuttle bus ni direct terus ke museum. Kalau stop pun sebab traffic light jer. :) Perjalanan cuma dalam 10minit jer

Bas akan berhenti di hadapan bangunan museum. So, tak perlu nak lintas jalan sumer. Terus beratur tunjuk tiket.

 Tips lain :

1) Semak dahulu perjalan shuttle bus dengan tiket museum pukul berapa sebab masa yang dibenarkan untuk masuk ke dalam museum ini hanya 30 minit. Contoh : Tiket pukul 4:00pm. Jadi..anda perlu sampai di museum di antara pukul 4:00pm - 4:30pm. Kami naik bas dari Notobori pukul 4:05pm

2) Walaupun shuttle bus, tetapi bayaran tetap dikenakan sebanyak YEN210 untuk dewasa dan YEN110 untuk kanak-kanak. (Boleh refer gambar jadual bas di atas)

Rase rajin datang dengan tiba-tiba. So, I am happily share this tips for everyone. Here is the step one by one that you can follow to purchase the ticket.

Bila sampai di Japan sila cari convenient store yang bernama Lawson di sini. InshaALLAH, ada banyak kalau di kawasan train station. Kalau tak silap, ada 2 jenis Lawson kat sini. Warna biru dan hijau. Cari yang warna biru macam dalam gambar ni sebab yang warna hijau tu tak de mesin Loppi.

Bila dah masuk Lawson, sila cari mesin Loppi macam dalam gambar ni. Mesin loppi ni touch screen, so terus pilih yang dalam dotted red line tu. Doraemon museum kat sini dikenali dengan nama kartunis iaitu Fujiko-F-Fujio.

Tekan bulan mana yang korang nak pegi

Sila follow arahan macam yang dibuat di atas. Masa untuk masuk ke museum cuma ade 4 kali jer. Pukul 10:00am, 12:00pm, 2:00pm dan last sekali pukul 4:00pm.

Zoom in step #6

Part ni susah sket kalau tade basic hiragana and katakana sebab kena type nama kot tulisan derang ni. Tips 1) belajar dulu tulis nama kot hiragana and katakana atas kertas. Refer kat internet untuk tahu lebih lanjut tentang tulisan Japanese ni. Kalau susah sangat, mintak tolong cashier Lawson tuh buatkan. Tunjuk jer passport kat derang. Tapi, kalau tengah customer ramai, susah gak derang nak tolong. Tips 2) Yellow button tu utk butang space bila type 1st and family name. Kena press 2 times laju-laju kat situ.

Tips #10 : Boleh jer letak num telefon Malaysia without code  "+6" kat depan . Bila mesin dah print slip panjang macam dalam #13, sila semak balik tarikh dan bilangan tiket yang korang nak sebelum pembayaran secara tunai dibuat di kaunter Lawson.

Tips lain :

1) Tiada kaunter tiket di Fujiko-F-Fujio Museum. Jadi, tiket memang WAJIB beli di Lawson
2) Mesin Loppi hanya ada di Lawson convenient store. Tiada di 7-Eleven ataupun Family Mart
3) Pembayaran hendaklah dibuat dalam  masa 30minit dari tempoh slip dikeluarkan dari mesin Loppi
4) Mesin akan keluarkan error ( tanda X) if tiket yang korang nak beli dah sold out.
5) Rujuk sini untuk maklumat lebih lanjut tentang harga tiket dan lain-lain http://l-tike.com/fujiko-m/english/
6) Beli seawal sebulan dari tarikh yang kita nak pergi sebab tiket selalu sangat sold out. Elakkan weekends atau public holidays. Nasib saya baik sket sebab try beli pagi tu untuk tiket hari yang sama.

Last Sunday we bring our kids to Miniami Park Centre . From Shinkoiwa, we used JR line and stop at Nishi Funabashi and changed the train to Tozai Line. Take another train to Gyotoku. I forgot the details on how to get to the park from Gyotoku Station. But it only took around 5 - 10 minutes on feet. InshaALLAH, I will share the details in next entry on how to get to this park if I go there again.

It was my 1st time to get there. Unlike hubby, he will go there once a week for Friday prayer. Well, the park is just in front of the mosque.

It open 6 days per week. Closed on every Monday and if Monday is public holiday, so it will be closed on Tuesday.

Here is the mosque.View taken from the park.

They have variety types of bicycles that you can rent without any single yen. Yes! It's free!

Here is the rules when you want to rent the bikes ; 1) There will a person in charge inside that building park center and he will ask you how many kids that you have, their ages and how many parents will accompany them. 2) Next thing to do is, fill up a simple form about your details ; name , time of rental and your address. 3) He will give you a rubber band with number tied with it. Please keep it until you return your bicycles. 4) Choose your desired and suitable bicycles  depends on your children's age. 5) Enjoy it!!!

They made this park not only for kids to enjoy and learn on how to cycle. But they designed it with road safety design including the traffic lights. How cool is that!

Not quiet easy job for the 1st timer. Ganbate Umair Kun! I know you can do it!

There is a time that you will look back at your past. It's OK to think and reflect about it. But..don't dwell it too much son! Keep calm and ask forgiveness from ALLAH S.W.T. Loves yourself and move on dear..InshaALLAH, you will find ease and peace in yourself

Practice make perfect!

The happiest kid since he just need to sit still on his tricycle while me with hubby take turn to push him round the park. *Ish...ish..ish*

I had enough by pushing his tricycle  and asked him to change with another type of tricycle. Initially, he was fussy and whining about it..until he saw few kids like his age enjoying cycling using the same type like him

Take a break by having a few slices of homemade pizza. Yummehh!!

They closed at 4:00 pm and the kids continued play at the nearby park. After that, we straightly went back home. It was fun activity. 

If  you stay at Tokyo vicinity and no idea where to spent your time with the children, then I highly recommended this place for you. My kids keep asking when we can go bike again although they did not know how to bike like a pro!

Thank you for reading peeps!

Enjoy your day.

So we took our green line bus around 2:40 pm from the Kawaguchiko Bus Station. Masa ni, tempat duduk dalam bas dah penuh. So, we ended up berdiri except the kiddos yang dah lenguh, dok bersimpuh atas lantai bas. The boys siap tido duduk lagi. Adoii la anak!

The journey took almost 40minutes but the view was really stunning! MashaALLAH...So, ni ade video 20 saat yang sempat dirakam masa dok berdiri dalam bas tu :


Kawasan perkampungan ni ade perkataan "healing" sebab history dulu..masa tahun 1966, ada typhoon yang sangat kuat sampai memusnahkan semua rumah asal yang ada kat sini. After around 40 years macam tu, perkampungan ini dibina semula dengan adanya 23 buah rumah hatched roof style ni.

Tapi kali ini, tujuan pembinaan memang untuk menarik pelancong luar datang sebab few houses become a museums , traditional craft making activities, galleries, shops selling local products, cafes, restaurants and  people also can rent the house to held a small party.

Entrance fees for adult is around YEN350 and primary / middle school kid is YEN150 per head. During winter season ( December - February) business hour from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm and it will be closed on every Wednesday.

Can't help myself from sharing this! Nampak sangat ramai Malaysian / Indonesian come here. I am not sure about the name of this fish. Tapi boleh tahan la harga sekor ikan tu kalau convert dalam RM16 sekor. Boleh beli ikan kembung sekilo kot masak kari! yumss!!! hahahah!

Another street shop selling honey, jeruk buah and fruits

Sebab ade tester and free. Of course la aku tak lepaskan peluang keemasan ni! Alaa..makan jeruk buah cherry kot ...sedap gak!

In front of the entrance

Masa ni Fuji San di kelilingi awan. Cantik sangat sebab macam lukisan

With Fuji San as a background

A water-mill house where buckwheat, wheat or rice is ground

Kalau tengok betul betul, bentuk atap rumah ni looks like a samurai warrior helmet atau dlm nihongo "Kabuto-zukuri"

Layan perasan kot tuh eh?

Rumah no 5 ini adalah rumah "kutsurogi-ya" ( house of relaxation). This house is used for held events sometimes

Memang luas dalam rumah ni. Sesuai untuk buat events

Tengok keadaan rumah ni buatkan teringat drama bersiri  Jepun tajuk Oshin

Dalam salah satu rumah yang mempamerkan seni lukis dan kraf tangan mereka

Creative sangat derang ni. Macam-macam ade

Cute and colorful

Budak ni topi kebun pun boleh jadi menan

Ranting kayu boleh jadi pancing. Ade ke ikan dalam tu?

Damai betul suasana kat sini. Bliss!

Tak sempat masuk pun rumah ni

Here is our family photo

Being a kid that always curious about everything

Tak puas menatap Fuji San

Sementara tunggu bas datang...jom  main!

Asal nak posing sesorang ade jerk yang sibuk nak menyelit..baru ingat nak feling cover album! Hahaha!

Aha! finally berjaya bergambar solo di atas pangku kayu. Hehehe...

Sampai rumah penginapan, kami rehat dan solat maghrib dulu. Dinner malam akhir kami adalah di restoren Tempura lagi. Hajat di hati ingat nak makan di Indian halal restoren tu tapi bas akhir pun pukul 4:40pm. Takperla, tempura pun lazat dan enak!
