Tokyo, Ginza, Asakusa, and Shinjuku

Woke up and grabbed the suitcase that Mom had packed for me and headed to my place to unpack it and change and get ready for the day. I headed back out and met up with Yu-Chih and Steve and we got on the train for Tokyo. We checked out the Emperor’s Palace and then headed to Ginza. In Ginza we got Shabu Shabu for lunch and the stopped over at the Nissan Headquarters to check out the GT-R upclose. From there we headed to Uniqlo in Ginza and then got back on the train heading to Asakusa. There we walked around the temple and stuff and then went to the Taiko Museum, a Drum shop there, and then another smaller Taiko Store. After getting some bachi (Taiko drum sticks) we took a look at the Asahi beer building and then headed to Shinjuku.

We were supposed to meet up with Aki, and were in Shinjuku a little early so we walked around a but and looked at the cool buildings there. Then we headed to the NS building and went to Issa. While we were there we got a mail from Aki and found that she had confused the day, so we finished dinner and then went to a couple game centers on the East side to do Purikura.
