Day 6

Not much exciting stuff happened today. After breakfast we went to a shopping complex close to the hotel. We went to a bookstore called Kinokuniya. We had to wait around because most stores open late. They opened at 10 am.

I took a couple pictures of passing JR line trains. Trains are crowded a lot but one of the best ways to get around Japan.

After the bookstore we went to Tonkyu Hands which was a "Creative Life" store. They had all kinds of miscellaneous things. Pet supplies, crafts, board games, etc. Found these really cool miniture aquariums with 2 plastic fish in each. Its made by Tomy. I'd post up a picture but I don't have them with me.

Then it was off to Tower Records. My mom found cd's that she was looking for. I was in there wondering where they had current Euro artists. I like the virgin Megastore better heh.

After that we had lunch and went back to the hotel. My mom and dad went to Ueno I think and me and my sister just stayed in the hotel.


For dinner we had shabu-shabu from a small place close to the hotel. You got to pick the quality of the beef you wanted. The more fat the more expensive. They also brought massive plates of vegetables. It had cabbage, mushrooms, onions, tofu, and some other stuff. They also gave us rice and some noodles. For desert it was passion fruit sherbet.

The veggies, beef, sauces, and pot of water to cook the food in! Yum!


Today in Tokyo was pretty nice weather. It was sunny out but it was rather hot after about 10 am. Well, not a very eventful day so thats all folks!
