one day, i went to osaka mosque i'm using google maps i choose public transport when i arrived at the station i saw a staff helping other tourists to buy the tickets
Hibiya Park, kinetsu line kinetsu station hanshin line erm... ticket, ticket?
buy ticket downstairs this is how you buy train ticket in japan step 1, look for the big map above and search for your destination step 2, look for the fare step 3, go to the machine and press for english step 4, choose your destination's fare step 5, slot in cash step 6, take your ticket and change ok we have arrived here at dekijima
dekijima sensei hai! (crack a lame joke) i need to learn japanese what is good morning in japanese? ohayo? when i want to approach people what should i say... excuse me right? sumimasen... sumimasen sometimes when the train is full of people it is ethical to say 'sumi masen' 'sumi masen' means excuse me
and don't forget to queue up when boarding the train there are many types of train in japan there are red colored train blue orange some are high-class train but my favourite is... train that looks like ultraman this train shuttles to and from the airport only
just like klia transit (in malaysia) in japan, there is a women's car only men shouldn't be mistaken one more thing... for those who bring kids and stroller just to remind, there are many stairs lift is available only in big train stations but the best, be prepared to walk a lot so use a compact stroller just like the pockit
shahib: we need to exit 1 shahib: we need to buy ticket wife: they said, exit here? wife: we exit first lah... wife: we can buy (ticket) downstairs hidayah: there... shahib: ahh? wife: jr ticket counter downstairsshahib: ohh ok let's go everytime we want to go from point a to point b, it's always confusing there is so many signages in japanese
where to find platforms where to find the exits because of so many exits and so many platforms so we need to know our destination what is the exit number so we follow the numbers for example i wanted to go daimaru
daimaru department store so 4a, 4b 1,2 & 3 exit is on the right so follow the number lah, 4a finally, i understand i would like to share shahib: after awhile now i understand shahib: ok come herehidayah: omar... omar shahib: wait, wait, wait
shahib: so whenever you see black background signage it means entrance (or platform) or which platform number to take but if the background color is yellow which means exit that one you see... it means exit yellow means exit black means entrance now i understand
in summary, husband and wife should work together help each other and do not easily get stressed when you are lost this boy... every time he's tired, he want to sit on the stroller the stroller actually is for baby behind it is part of adventure so we are going to take... alamak alamak, alamak, alamak, alamak, alamak... is it that one?
ohh change.. okay! thank you very much shahib: car number 2 hidayah: huhh? shahib: car number 2 so... this is not the train shahib: the train is in blue hidayah: huhh? shahib: the train is in blue hidayah: what is the difference between 1 and 2 over there? shahib: that is platform 1
hidayah: and then? shahib: but they not even mention the platform 1 (loose confidence) shahib: but that person said over here? hidayah: so... so which means what?
