T&J Travels #10: Japan 2018 (Part 11)

 Our first agenda for today is the ever iconic Tokyo Tower. I wasn't initially keen in going up nor actually spending time here but my sister wants me to checkout the One Piece store.

+ Tokyo Tower +

I am not a fan of One Piece at all so we forgo the access. It was a pretty day out so the skies are clear for sight seeing. We even saw the top of the majestic  Mt. Fuji.

Tons of blogs would always say to skip the towers but I do enjoy going and seeing what the city looks like on top. Just come early because the observatory could get a bit cramped.

Price: 900 JPY each

We haven't had breakfast yet so after going around the available areas at the tower, we went downstairs for brunch.

My camera's phone is atrocious. I know.

The curry sandwich was crispy and the curry inside the bread is not too spicy. However when I started eating my second piece my tongue is having enough of all the flavors I had to generously sip some tea to wash it off. I do know I would not order it again.

We shouldn't have ordered, if only I've known that in a few minutes the next door One Piece restaurant buffet style will be open. When I saw the interiors of that restaurant I felt like it's more fun there. Probably a good excuse to return to.

Price: 2600 JPY (total)

As told by one of YT bloggers, if you do find yourself blocked by so many people taking selfies near the tower, there's one area you could visit that still has the view of Japan's Eiffel with a bonus photo of the temple, a juxtaposition of both old and new and the walk is less than 10 minutes to reach. Where is it you ask? Go click the next post.

As of writing, our application for a license is now on the way. We were able to do everything in one day with not much hassle but it took some hours to finish since we started the process. It's a bit different than before but man, I love that we didn't have to take a leave on another day (other than getting the license obviously).  Requirements 1. CENOMAR -PSA copy, 210 PHP at SM Business Center; will take almost 2 weeks 2. Birth Certificate - PS copy, 155 PHP at SM Business Center; will take a week 3. Government IDs with Mandaluyong address. Old bills, minimum 6 months prior can be submitted as well in lieu. I prepared 3 bills for this, Meralco, Globe and Assoc Dues and the processor only got the Meralco one (photocopy). I don't have IDs with Mandaluyong address but bothered to photocopy my other government IDs bearing our Cavite address and my condo's IDs but those weren't accepted.  4. Application Form - submitted and filled out in triplicate. 5. CEDULA - Can be

TME: Getting your NBI Clearance Easy

UPDATE (10/25/2013) As I've visited their site , GCASH won't be a form of payment for them from now on. You may now choose to leave this link as it is now obsolete as of this writing. I may try to write the different mode of payment in the near future. UPDATE(13/01/2014) Here's the new, updated and lazier version  < this is clickable just so you know. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I will not explain the full details, but me and my office mates regularly need an NBI Clearance. It's one of my most hated moments because it is so time consuming. Yes the process is as fast as they can make it, but you only need to see the extremely long queue to give up getting one during lunch break. So, when one of our office mates found a fast track option a whole lot of us instantly grabbed the chance. There are about 3 steps in getting an NBI clearance (payment, encoding, picture taking) and all involves different sets of queues and wh
