My Piece of Gratitude: 2017-01-01

Hello readers or followers of mine (do I even have readers?) Feels good to be back and this is my first post of 2017. I've been saving this post in draft and finally decided to post it today.

Last year , me and my cousin were planning to go on a trip without our parents for the first time and yeah booked our ticket in February 2016 also chose Trip Adik Beradik to be our tourist guide in Osaka , JAPAN !

8th October 2016

We took a flight to KLIA2 at 8.55 pm and arrived at 9.55 p.m...Something unexpectedly happened which my luggage went totally Kaput! ha ha ha . The wheel was missing and I was quite panicked because my next flight to Osaka was in the next three hours. Luckily , one of the airport's officer saw the damage and she said "You should report it to the Lost and Found department right over there" and showed me the direction to the Lost and Found department.

One of the Officers checked on my documents and the damage on the luggage. He said "Okay, we'll replace the bag" Yay ! What a relief and....

Ta.Daaaa... my new luggage ! So much bigger , stronger , unbreakable and most importantly , it's NEON PINK. Thank you Air Asia !

1.00 a.m Departed from Kuala Lumpur to KIX (Kansai Airport , Osaka).

7.30 a.m Arrived at KIX ! yay

Then Mimi , one of Trip Adik Beradik's crew fetched us from the airport to our apartment at Dōtonbori to rest.

At night , we strolled along the Dotonbori streets and there were so many people.
