Sorry, so busy. So much fun, but cant wait to get home! Xp



View from my hotel in Kameido.



Think this is Harajuku, not sure. We started out there anyway.




On da train. On this day, every train stop the guys got ice cream from the vending machine.
We were heading towards an auto part store, then the aqaurium.






This was delicious!




Outside auto parts store.



A special fry holder for your car!



Train map. Starting to understand it.




Went to an indoor fun house called Nyanjatown. It is all cat themed. There is a haunted town section, fairytale, old America, gashapons( egg/claw machines), ice cream and gyoza(like fried pot stickers) sections!



The ice cream section had every kind of ice cream, including potato. My friends also tried shark fin, and beef. :p I found turkish ice cream there. It was good.



We went to the Bew Years festival at a shrine.









Look atcthose giant hot dogs!



I had a chocolate banana!



Scary giant Monchichi.



They carried this little portable shrine on new year's.



Kitty! Lots of kitties around the ghibli museum. I have alot of Ghibli photos on my nice camera. :p



Big ol eva.




This is Chandu. He is from a ride at Disney Sea. He dirs not belong to me. He is our spirit animal on this trip.



We went to Zat's burger in Mitaka. Upstairs from that is where the old Ghibli studio was.



We visited this animation studio later that evening.
Will knows a lady who helps run it, and my friend works here. The world is small. We were here for a few hours.




Yesterday we went to the zoo. All the other photos are on my nice camera, again.



Afterward, we walked thru the peony gardens. Each plant was sheltered from the wind. It was pretty cold that day.
That evening I had dinner with Dwight, Valerie, and Roger. Dwight took us to a little hole in the wall Okinawan restuarant. While there, a French Canadian guy, who was friends with the owner of the restuarant,(Dwight also knew the owner) started sending us secret dishes off the menu. We had tonkatsu rare, rolled in burnt sesame seeds, it was amazing. The Canadian told us he works for Gordon Ramsey, and that he comes to this restuarant everytime he visits japan. Only place in the world to try that dish. The restuarant owner gave me his card, which I was told was very hard to get. Afterward, we hopped the very last train back to Kameido. Today might be the Tezuka museum, and then evening pass to disneyland. :D



Here are some stacked cats.
