The coldest day of my life - Chi gu de leng

When I said that I had a terribly cold day at Disneyland, I wasn't quite kidding. It was colder than in Mt Fuji!

Ironically, Disneyland was one of my most anticipated places of interest yet it turned out to be a disastrous cold and rainy place that I remembered it to be.

At first it was only drizzling. We thought the rain might be short-lived but its not Spore.

Initially, we were quite high with the rain and strong wind that blows onto our face. Well it was quite fun at first you see, with the wind so strong that it blew up our umbrella. We were like screaming away.




The indoor is the only comfort zone that can keep me warm and smiley.




From the wetness of my pants, you can imagine how drenched and uncomfortable I feel.


We then queued for an outdoor ride. When it was our turn to be on the ride, it has already started pouring heavily. Yes, heavily. Our sweater, hair and all are totally wet! AAAHHHH....the start of nightmare.


It was so damn uncomfortable and terribly cold esp when the strong wind keep blowing whenever we reach outdoors. I regretted not wearing thick enough clothing. Serve me right for wearing so thin clothing. Underestimated the coldness but curse the rain and wind.


Since after that first ride, Clara and myself were freezing for the rest of the day, Diana was reasonably warmed with her rather thick sheepy sweater that she bought. Thus, Clara and myself have termed the coldness as 'Chi gu de leng" -coldness that strike right into the bone and heart.

Unfortunately, the rain in TOKYO is long-lived.






Sorry, I dint manage to take much photos cos I was literally freezing beneath the wet sweater I was wearing. Totally lost the mood and strength to take photos.

We are left to take those seemingly kiddish indoor rides which has however brighten up our mood. The indoor rides bring you into beautiful dreamylands and fantasy worlds that totally rock the inner child in you. It was entertaining and beautiful!




Yet, after finishing each indoor ride, we are back to facing the harsh cold weather so as to get to other places. Back to freezing time. GRRRR.....

We thought we will most prob get sick the next day. But luckily, we dint as we were left to fend for ourselves for the extended 3 days all on our own.
