couldn't find tokyo rose


ginza shopping district, all the big designers have stores here, very expensive.

tokyo was crazy! that is all i can say. there are so many people there. we hit a few of the biggest districts of tokyo, ginza, shuboya, roppongi, and a couple other ones that i can't think of right now. shuboya is the times square of tokyo, the busiest intersection in the world, there is like six crosswalks converging in this square and people are all over. the busiest starbucks is also in that square. so we just got a drink and went to the second floor and watched the chaos that is tokyo. we sat there at least 45 minutes just watching all the people. they have an interesting fashion sense here.


this is how many japanese girls dress, pretty funky.

paul just before dinner.
we went to the imperial palace, but couldn't get to it because it was blocked off for some reason. the metro in tokyo is crazy. i thought hong kong was a bit tricky, but the stations here have six and seven levels, and the map is tough to figure out where to go, and to transfer. we ate at hard rock here in tokyo, ed and lisa liked it, some good american food that didn't have any asian influence. went to some shopping districts out of tokyo and they have shoe stores every other store. there are so many brands, styles to choose from, and are fairly inexpensive. it rained a bit last night, and poured all morning. we are probably going to yokohama today, the second largest city in japan.
we leave tomorrow, i can't believe how fast this trip has gone by. traveling out of a suitcase sucks, but i have had so much fun. can't wait to share all the pics with you all. i have taken a lot, so i will narrow down the favorites so i don't bore you.
well hopefully i will get one more post in before we leave.
