This weekend's adventure took me to Kagurazaka, Shiodome, Shibuya, Ginza, and Narita.
The day started off pretty well, nice sunny weather, meeting my friends (Rina and Ami) at Ueno park.
Kagurazaka is an area of Shinjuku known for its French inflence as well as its remenant buildings and restaurants from Japan's past. I mainly wanted to go there because it was in a drama that I watched, Haikei, Chichi-ue Sama (Dear Dad), but it ended up being a really fun exploration. We tried to go to the Canal Cafe, but because of the crazy random rain that hit, all the seats were wet.
After that we headed over to Shiodome to catch the last week of the Summer Festival for NiTele (Nippon TV). It was the day before their annual 24 Hour TV Charity special, so there was a lot to see and do (although Fuji was much better).
After that we went to Starbucks and frantically looked for some Mont Blanc Cakes in the area. Unfortunately we couldnt get them (all sold out) so we ventured out to Higashi Ginza to pick some up from Angelina (they make the best mont blanc Ive ever had).
We all parted and I went to Shibuya to meet up with Khwb(little angry man), my friend from SD. It was his first time in Tokyo so I knew we had a lot of options, but he opted to get some McDs. hahah. It was really fun getting to see him again (it had been a few months) and then I crashed at his place that night in Narita city. It was good times. The next day I went to Shibuya to shop around before hopping on the Shonan-Shinjuku back to the Gun.
