Tokyo, Japan


This will probably be my last entry in Japan. Ill upload photos when Im back in the US. My night in Tokyo was pretty fun. We hit up Roppongi, Shibuya, and Shinjuku. Im pretty sure we were almost killed in a huka bar in Roppongi. You can have alcohol in the streets here, so we stopped at a 7/11 and bought beer for the walk to Shibuya. There was a really fun bar we found there, but drinks are so expensive here so we caught a train to Shinjuku where we walked around Kabuki-cho (the red light district) and sang Karaoke until 5am when it closed. Then some people went home and Katie and I slept in a manga cafe until 9. We went shopping in Harajuku and Shibuya, and it was hot and crowded. My family rented me some independent Japanese films so I watched them when I got home and they were really great. Yesterday we went to see Kabuki theater and it was awesome. I really enjoyed it. Yesterday was also the hottest day in Tokyo`s history and I survived. There was an earthquake in Chiba at about 4am and it woke me up. Its 9am now and there are still some small quakes hitting Tokyo. Our next/last camp is in Chiba, so hopefully it will be cancelled. We were at the facility for a camp earlier and there is no air conditioning and the food is horrible. I never went to Kyoto/Osaka since no one wanted to spend the money to come with me, so I may still try to go during the last three days here, or else climb Mt. Fuji or take a trip to Kamakura. See everyone in a week!
