They have finally arrived!


Oct. 31, Joven and I headed to Narita Airport Terminal 2. Just in Time a Yokosuka line bound to Naruto was scheduled at 6:10 and we met at 6pm. We decided to try the Green Car. Here in Japan you can reserve your seats in the local train by having an additional charge from your normal fare. In our case we just added Y750. Actually it was not so crowded that time,we just wanted to experience riding one. A girl with electronic device in one hand and with baskets of goods in the other, greeted us after we seated. We intinctively gave her our Suica but she taught us that we will just tap it on the ceiling and the light will turn green from default red, which means we have taken the seats.

From the inside you cannot hear any noise from the outside, even the announcer that says "Doa ga shimarimasu" (The door is now closing) cannot be heard. It was a long journey though but good thing we had our gadgets with us :D. First thing we did is to take some pictures. Then around Sakura, we noticed that we are the only persons in our car. Joven decided to create a video out of boredom, which I eventually uploaded even if he didnt want me to. You see I'm very proud of his unique talents, he can dance uncontrollably and mimic voices of other nationality.=D>
Well, see it for your selves, I will upload the other one if Jovs will be free to give me the copy

Then we arrived in Narita Airport Terminal 2 at 8pm. PAL flight PR432 was delayed for 25mins and so we waited and waited. Good thing the airport has a WIFI connection, I was able to made myself busy with a very fast connection to the net. Then finally, our long wait was over.

The first word that I ever heard from Joven's nephew, Monisop (Not his real name, but the name he coined for himself) was "Joooven"! We cannot believe it!. Moments prior to their arrival I asked Joven, if he thinks his nephew can still recognize him and he answered maybe NOT but he stand corrected. Loud and clear his nephew uttered his name. I never imagined he will be so talkative. The last time I saw him, he can barely say a word. But now he can say "Chap chap" (Joven's brother) and Jessa(his nanny) over and over again and "Tinapay", "Labas tau" and so many others very clearly.
Then I greeted ate Cheryl, who is now by the way, very slimmed down and Joven's pretty mom. Im so happy to see them, it's like seeing my own family. Then Ate Cheryl tried Joven's headdress from Disneyland's. She really like it, it was so funny.=))

We rode the bus Limousine on our way to Yokohama, One thing I learned was always asked for the coupon, they will not offer it, you have to asked for it so you could get discount. Then ate Cheryl told us that it was Monisop's first bus experience.

He never rode a bus before in Manila, only Taxi or shuttle. So you can imagine how ecstatic he is. And then she gave me her omiyage, a beautiful, unconventional edible bouquet of Rose Pastillas. Who wouldnt love it! I was so touched and very happy.



Around 12pm we arrived in Yokohama, Joven's mom asked me, if it really take us that long going to the office, I think she was surprised about how long the trip was. But I said "it's not that long, only the airport was just situated very far". True enough, I remember on my first trip here, I wonder if all the places are as secluded as Narita airport.
When I bid goodbye to them on the Tokaido Ticket entance, they were not expecting that I would be transferring to another train, they thought Joven and I live next to each other. Haha! I told them that our company really planned to separate our dorm. I would like to think that because Joven's place is not suitable for girls because it is very far away from the eki(station).I wonder what their impressions would be after a long walk in Totsuka going to Jov's dorm:D I hope they wont complain much!
I'm very happy that the waiting was over. I was able to see the beaming face of Jovs upon seeing his family. Wait till you see the vid of how he transformed his filthy:P dorm into a cozy room. This only shows how he value his mom and sis. What a proud gf I am! A good son and brother sounds a very promising husband to me!/hmm
