Exploring more of Tokyo with the gang.

We went out with the group to the Imperial Palace in the morning some cool sites. I even 3d scanned some stuff like the fish statue in the front entrance.

After we made our way to another temple after getting lunch in Shibuya. The place was bigger than the ones we went to in Kyoto. It was peaceful and a nice break from the city. We later made our way to the Nintendo store did some shopping and made our way through Shibuya to get back to our hotel to end the night celebrating Fabian’s birthday even passing the famous crossing to get there. It was an eventful night with friends and good food.

Back to Tokyo

So after a train ride back to Tokyo to Akihabara we visited a few shopping places with the main group. They were all very cool and interesting but I personally didn’t find anything for myself. Until I went out on my own and found a copy of monster hunter dos a game I’m missing in my collection ironically below our hotel.

Me and Fabian the next day set off to Diver City. We saw the Unicorn Gundam had breakfast and did some shopping. We then made our way to Shinagawa to find Kojima Productions. We found it and almost just walked into the office by accident turns out security for a major game creator’s office is very lax and you can just go to the studio floor and walk around the great white void room.

We ended our day going to the Tokyo Sky tree where I had a coffee and a nice view.

Food in Day 8: Traveling Back to Tokyo

After waking up early to pack all of my things, Maddy and I went downstairs to have breakfast before the long train ride back to Tokyo. On the train ride, I wrote as much on my blogs as my stomach could handle before taking a nap while listening to music. After getting to Tokyo and dropping off our bags in our hotel in Akihabara, we speed ran as many floors of Mandarake as possible, went to Super Potato to look at their retro games, and looked around Animate before having dinner and going to sleep.

For my last breakfast at the hotel, I was given toast with prosciutto, spinach, tomato, and parmesan. Although I was not a big fan of how hard the crust was, the rest of the toast was delectable. I also grabbed more fried fish because I’ve enjoyed all of the fried fish I’ve had here along with some egg, another croissant, some mushrooms, and yogurt with soybeans and brown sugar. I also got another glass of apple juice because I cannot resist its call.

After our long train ride, Maddy, Brody, Vincent and I went to a food court near the hotel and got some ramen. I got ramen with shrimp tempura in it because I love ramen and I love shrimp tempura, and I have already had the two together, so why not get it again?

For dinner, we decided to go to a sushi restaurant that Toshi recommended to us. I got this rice combination bowl with various different things in it so I could try a little bit of everything. It was absolutely delicious, and I would definitely recommend going there if you like sushi.

Tomorrow is our last free day on the trip, so let’s make the most of it!
