Sunrise-Sunset


I have seen both the sunrise and the sunset two days in a row. Tokyo has really my schedule really messed up, but is the most fantastic city I have ever been to. Last night, after a farewell dinner for Caren and Jamal, we sang some more karaoke, got a little rowdy, and had some ramen before walking home in the daylight.


Today we spent the day in harajuku looking at the people who dress up all crazy. I am in desperate need of some rest. I think tomorrow might be the day to rest Japanese-style. Check back for an update.

The day that never ends

This morning we went to the Tokyo fish market! Because you have to get there really early to see any of the good stuff, I only had a brief "pause" between going out and going to the fish market. We got to see the crazy auction, and there is a crazy Japanese man yelling fish prices. Then we went to one of the sushi restaurants for the freshest sashimi that I have ever eaten. Notice that everyone is drinking beer with their sushi for breakfast at 7am!

Karaoke!


The Japanese loooooove their karaoke! I looooove my karaoke. We get along. Last night was the third time I've gone in this country.

My rendition of "If I Could Turn Back Time" got more intense each time.

Apparently, my calling, instead, is the tambourine.

Imperial Gardens



Last night was a little much, so today was a day of rest at the Imperial Palace and gardens.

Shibuya Crossing



This is the busiest intersection in Japan.
