got back from tokyo this morning, already edited and uploaded the pictures so here we go
first, the main reason i went to tokyo was to visit some good friends who I met at Mississippi State. I got to see everyone except Kaori :( but hopefully I'll get to visit again soon and she won't be so busy
Night One: Korean food
 |
| Everyone (minus fumi and kaori + Park-san) |
 |
| Appetizer |
 |
| Main Course, pork, onion etc |
 |
| Looks like Mayato winking at Haruka? |
 |
| Park-san and Myself |
The night ended with Me, Toshiko, Mayato and Haruka doing Purikura:
 |
| All the editing done by Haruka and Toshiko |
Day 2:
I went to visit Meisei University where they all go/went to university. I was allowed to sit in on Haruka and Toshiko's 4th period and Haruka, Toshiko and Fumi's 5th period.

| The monorail headed for Meisei |
 |
| View from the monorail as I arrived at Meisei |
 |
| First view of the campus after exiting the monorail (i believe that is the gymnasium) |
 |
Campus Map
(I met Haruka and Toshiko near the fountain) |
 |
| Longhorns at Meisei?! |
After 5th period their friend Chiho drove us to Fumi's part time job for dinner. I hadn't realized how much I missed riding in a car

 |
| Chicken and potatoes |
 |
| Bacon and Egg Pizza |
 |

After the visit to Top Secret I didn't feel like paying for a cab back, so I walked and took some pics along the way
Day 4
Random wandering around, Shinjuku, Shibuya and Harajuku
 |
| Shinjuku |
 |
| Random Evo IV |
 |
| On my way to Shinjuku Station to go to Shibuya |
 |
| In Shibuya |
 |
| not sure why but i found this amusing |
 |
| Street crossing outside of Shibuya station |
Harajuku
 |
| Crowded street full of shops |
 |
| Advertising.... something? |
 |
| Big Wheel indeed |
Back in Shinjuku, wandering around till my bus comes at 11:50pm
 |
| Mad Hatter and Captain Jack Sparrow..... helping advertise |
and one benefit of taking the midnight bus.... when it stops at 5:30 for bathroom break you get to see the sunrise in the land of the rising sun
