I've slowly been getting familiar with my laboratory members. They are all really nice! They also use some new equipment that I've never seen before so I suppose I'm learning!
Over the weekend, I booked a stay at an economy hotel for one night. That way I could enjoy Tokyo for much longer! I went to the Pokemon Center Saturday morning. It was crowded! But I really enjoyed my time there. I headed off to The Globe Tokyo Theater for Junno's Forrest Gump stage play. It was really different from the American movie! I managed to catch some parts of what they were saying but clearly my Japanese is not that good yet. I really liked the person who acted out the Captain.
Afterwards I headed to Shibuya and walked down Cat Street. It was, in my opinion, okay. It was very varied with a ton of boutiques and clothing stores but I didn't manage to find anything to buy. I stopped by a steak restaurant and then went to check in at my hotel. Afterwards, I headed back out to Shibuya to explore Shibuya's UNIQLO. :)
On Sunday, I had an unique experience for breakfast at Burger King. They have sofas! Sofas! I then headed to Shibuya 109. American music was blasting in every store and the prices were quite insane. Outside Shibuya 109 was a mini cheering squad for Japan in the FIFA Soccer World Cup. They were wearing blue soccer shirts. I then went to a gyoza restaurant and ate a delicious meal. Too bad I couldn't finish it all. I had to leave after lunch in order to get back to Kiryu on time.
The weather has also been insane. One minute it's rainy, the next the sun is blasting. Really. Make up your mind.
Tomorrow we will be going to a chano-yu, which is a traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony. Looking forward to it!
Haha and I was wondering if you had abandoned the blog--also Pokemon (side eyes you)--haha was Taguchi any good? (It was a musical, no?)
