AFAX: A Journey to the South

Woke up a little too early shaken with excitement, crawling outta bed to complete the packing of baggage. Heading towards the airstrip as soon as my companions’ driver arrived to fetch me…

It is a rainy day, as droplets of crystal liquids fell from the skies bombarded our cruising vehicle, my companions and I had a slight chat with our driver as we head along the coast way towards our destination.

Had a few traffic hiccups here and there, but we managed to make it some one and a half hours earlier than the given time limit… Ranka-chan looks kinda melancholic, peering outta our vehicle’s window…

It seems a mob of crowd waiting to fly as well, really took a while before it’s finally our turn to enter the gate of no return, as the time limit approaches fast…

On her seat, Ranka-chan stares into the empty parking space as she eagerly awaits the arrival of the bright red bird with 3 times the speed that will carry her thru the skies…

And off we go piercing thru the air! Bye bye for now, my island!

Aboard the bird, the ever busy tentacles starts to crawl around the cabin, curiously examining their new but temporary habitat.

What’s 3 times the speed and red in colour you ask? One of the highly intelligent explorer Tako will give you her wise hypothesis…

Before long, we have a touch down, finally reaching the South island that we’re heading! ^_^ The journey began here!

As soon as we met our little Lord of the Lodge (aka the Prince of the Lodge), who offered to ferry our baggage, we went around town for a little sight ‘n’ seeing…

Met up with a very old friend of ours we nicknamed “Ur Fren” and had him being our guide of the day. Our first stop? The Sentosa island!

Bumped into a very familiar globe along our way when going around the island, but have decided against entering the resort town to accumulate resources for the main event the next day… ^_~

There’s many wonderful interiors that you’ll never ever get to see on my island…

Also found a rather familiar looking brand name in one of the places around the island… 0_0

Merlion, the half-lion-half-fish mascot of the Republic!

After the island trip, all of us barged into Ur Fren’s hut for a mini competition in Wii Sports, unlike the last time when I watched Evangelion 2.0 along with comrades from the Republic during my solo Otaku pilgrimage a full Earth cycle before…

Ended up with sore feet when we finally returned to the lodge late at nite. ^^;

Must muster the strength for the numero Uno reason of this journey the next day… >,<
