When I was about 8 years old, I went on a 5-day trip with my parents to Japan. That was my first trip overseas, so I was very excited and looked forward to it. At first, we planned to take the train to TPE (Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport), so we bought the tickets in advance. However, we arrived late at the train station; we thus became nervous and even took the wrong train. Fortunately, the wrong train also passed Taoyuan. But since we didn’t have any tickets, we needed to stand from Tainan to Taoyuan, which was impossible for us, so we decided to communicate with the train crews and told them our condition. Lucky enough, we were allowed to stay in one of the lounge. After that, we arrived at TPE, and I was quite excited because this is my first time taking a plane. The flight attendants were Japanese, and they were all very kind and nice. With TV, headphones, and several movies, the equipment of the seat also surprised me a lot. Also, since my seat was next to the window, I can see the sky and the clouds closely. That was a pleasant experience!

        When we finally arrived at Japan, the weather was very good, and I was totally in a good mood. In this 5-day trip, we visited many department stores and shopping streets in Tokyo, and I remembered that we went to a very famous ramen shop and had a delicious and authentic ramen there. In addition, we went to Sanrio Puroland and Disneyland in Tokyo. As a child, it was very fun for me to play and interact with those special characters, and I took several pictures with them, too. However, there are too many people lining up in front of the amusement park facilities, and the weather is too hot to endure. When we lined up and waited for a very long time, it was like a severe torture to us. Even though I still experienced some of the facilities, I became so tired that I slept for a long time that night. All in all, I had a good time visiting those two places. Another impressive thing for me is the episode of picking peaches. One day we went to a peach tourist orchard, and picked a lot of peaches there. My parents originally wanted to take them back to Taiwan; however, the tourist guide told them that the fruit cannot be taken onto the plane. As a result, my parents and I ate the peaches for several days in a row, and we felt disgusted to the peach for a long time because of that. Even though I cannot remember precisely what our family do and go in Japan, I still have an impression that this was a wonderful trip, and I want to visit other places in Japan next time.
