Japan is a strange strange place

Tokyo, Japan


Two days ago we went to Harajuku which was crazy. Im planning on going back to go shopping since there are lots of thrift stores in the area. I took pictures with my host brother in the little photo booths. They are really popular here and there are underground areas just full of them. We ate hibachi at home and it was amazing. My family rented me a bunch of Japanese films with English subtitles and we watched a couple. Very interesting. Yesterday we went to Asakusa. It was like traditional Japan and I got to visit some temples. It was really nice. We also went to Ueno and bargained for fish. I had a Wii tournament with my host brother and almost won. Today we are going to the aquarium and to a restaurant where I fish for my dinner and then they cook it for me. Im excited! No one wants to go to Kyoto or Osaka with me and Im nervous about traveling by myself, but hopefully someone decides to come because Im leaving on Monday. I may still try to climb Mt. Fuji too, but we will see.
