Tokyo is a little chilly at this time of year.

Hello all,

It`s our last morning in Japan so we thought we'd fill you in on Tokyo before we go.
This place is cool!! It's such a massive city with tons of shops and neon (slightly better neon than Las Vegas).

We stayed in a capsule for a night which was pretty good. We didn't get any photos but they are just how you'd imagine. You crawl in to a white capsule (they are in rows, two high) You get a TV, radio, alarm and it's just the right size for Sueann. Matt on the other hand had to sleep diagonally.... hee hee. The floors were separated in to male and female and we had to meet each other in the lobby. Matt decided not to bother with the male communal bathing. He's not quite ready for that. The ladies didn't have the option. It was showers only for us.
Matt said it was like sleeping in a microwave oven. Bing!

We got up really early from the capsule to go to the Fish Market. It was huge! Fish everywhere. We treated ourselves to some sushi (very odd at 7am) but definitely the best we've had.


Matt and I almost split up after 500 hours of standing in a toy shop trying to decide which transformer to buy. I had to drag him out and say he wasn't getting anything. We got to the end of the street and he finally made the decision. We went back and got Optimus Prime. Definitely the most stressful part of the trip to date :)

We were wandering around taking some last minute photos yesterday when we suddenly noticed a couple of Geisha sneaking around a corner. We followed them for a while (stalkers again) and finally plucked up the guts to ask them for a photo. (Sueann was a little over excited at this point so the photo is slightly blurry).












P.S To Daph - Not a new T-Shirt, bought in Edinburgh. Did buy a new one in Kyoto. It may feature in some up and coming blog entries if you keep your eyes peeled! You should definitely save up for a Japan visit Daph, and save hard, there's lots to spend your cash on.
