Land of the Rising Sun Part 1
So, I took loooots of pictures while I was in Japan. To spare your computers these pictures will be coming in multiple posts.
Overall the trip was AWESOME!!! Japan is a great country, and I can't wait to go again, potentially next summer. I was there for a week; arrived Saturday night in Tokyo, spent all day Sunday in Akihabara, went to Kyoto Monday, spent all day on a train going to Akita Tuesday, spent all day Wednesday and Thursday in Akita, then back to Tokyo Friday and went home on Satuday.
100 yen. Woo.
In the D, flashing my money. Probably not the smartest of ideas, but whatever.
On the plane with my dad and Sheila
My first of many cups of green tea. とてもおいしいです！
Happy Panda Green Tea!
This reminded me of a certain OCD anime character....
Fancy Japanese toilets. Woah.
Button closeup.
Hotel room in Tokyo. We stayed in Roppongi
Tokyo Tower, taken from our hotel room window!
These pjs were in our room.
My first meal in Japan, chilled udon!

You ordered your food via this vending machine thing. It printed out a ticket that you gave to the waiters.
Tokyo Tower, orange light version
OMOLH YES!!!! Harry Potter ad in the subway station!
This is where we are!!!
My first Edward Elric sighting!!!
Me and Yuki (a former student of my dad's friend Masaki) who was nice enough to show us around Akihabara. :)
Capsule machines!!! I love these things!!
Fun rainbow arcade!
I found Pikachu!!!
Maid cafe where we ate :3
Another ad for the maid cafe.
In the cafe. You aren't really supposed to take pictures of the maids (I had to pay 500 yen to take a picture with one) but we sneakily caught one in the background here. >3
Yummy maid cafe cake
You had to chant and make these moe hearts before you could eat your food, lol.
Lucky Star car!
More to come!!
