Watching people cross the big crossing at Shibuya from Starbucks after another day in Tokyo.
Went to the Sensoji temple at Asakusa and tried to go up Tokyo Sky Tree but it was too windy today! Might try another day or night.
Bought so many things in the shopping street near the temple though! Everything was cute and I wanted it!!! So many key chains and hello kitty stuff everywhere and I bought like 6 of these cute hand made cats holding things (made of pretty material).
Next day, 20th of April:
Went to Harajuku this morning, rocked up about 10 and thought that wad a silly time to be there, all the crazies would be out later so we didn't really see much of the people in dress up clothes, just a few punky looking people.
There were so many crepe shops down the main street (Takeshita dori) so we both got one and they were pretty epic! Ben got a strawberry cheesecake one and I got strawberry and chocolate (all come with fresh whipped cream)! We must have set a trend as heaps of people lined up at the one we got one from, bloody American tourists too!
Went to NHK studio not far from there to see if we could get a tour of the place but no there was just a rubbish gallery (literally, things recycled from rubbish found). I think it was Tokyo earth day as outside the studio there were markets and stuff. Waste of time lol
Headed over to electric town (Akihabara) to see if they had anything decent. Not overly fussed with it. Had lunch in the Yodabashi store there and went onto the Sega game place but just played the prize games, we're not hard core enough for the other levels haha
We watched a few of them doing their thing and they were nuts, they must live there! There was a DJ game and and this guy was killing it! I think he got to about 350 correct buttons in a row!!
