Dong Zen Temple


Just in the month of Chinese New Year, Dong Zen temple in Jenjarom was opened for visitors. The temple is famous for its light and flowers decoration. So we planned for a short trip there. Prior to that, we paid a visit to WP (HJ's gf) and Bell in Klang. Think the kidults enjoyed most with the Wii Nitendo game console in Bell's home. Thought of buying one, but quickly scrapped the idea. Better buy PS3 or SLR camera instead. Just a thought.

Generally, Dong Zen temple is very clean and nice looking. Well decorated and maintained. Just that it was so crowded on that day. According to TL, many visitors go there during CNY. True enough, the crowd swelled to uncountable number. So we left the place early with some disappointment on the dinner across the road.

Day 2: A visit to some of The Tokyo Toilet project

On the second day of my trip, I decided to visit some of the public toilets under The Tokyo Toilet project. The idea was inspired by the film  Perfect Days . Since the public toilets under this project are scattered around western side of Tokyo, I visited a few in Shibuya area, which are quite close to each other. One notable location is Yoyogi Park.  One of the highlights of these designer toilets is the transparent toilet. Its transparent glass walls will turn opaque when the door is locked. This feature is based on the electrochromic effect. However, this feature is unavailable during late autumn and winter, which coincided my visit. The key takeaway from this visit: an eye opening experience about toilet culture and social inclusivity.

Japan trip 2024

Just returned from a solo trip to Japan end of last month. The trip coincided with a conference in Sendai. It was an 8-day trip, including 2 days of travel. Took a direct flight from KL to Tokyo on the afternoon of October 23rd (Wednesday), arriving that night. By the time I cleared immigration, it was almost midnight. Then took a train to downtown Shimbashi. Without detailed research on the location of my booked capsule hotel, I ended up walking in the wrong direction and almost being harassed by roadside pimps (lol). After getting free Wi-Fi at a convenience store, finally able to find the hotel. Once checked in, took a hot bath (it was an open bath). That was the end of the day.  In-flight meal of ANA airline Male-only capsule hotel with open hot spring You can browse manga for free after soaking
