Tokyo pt2
I spent my extra day in Tokyo figuring out where I was going next after walking around my hostels area some more and having an early lunch of sushi. The bluefin tuna was mmmmmm. The weather forecast was not working for going to Mt Fuji so I decided to skip that and head to Nikko instead.
After that was sorted out and I got a bed in Nikko reserved it was down to the “Onsen” (Japanese hot bath) for a soak. Dinner was up next, Udon noodles and prawn tempura with some cold sake tonight, delicious. I went back to the Shibuya area after that, there’s even more people there in the evening, and wandered around some of the tech stores, entertainment stores etc. Then I stumbled upon an English Pub, decided it was a good time to have a pint and had a guinness (something I’m going to do in every country to compare them all!). The pub was nice, looked English, and had an English pub menu… While I was there I saw someone at the table over from me eating the Fish n Chips, with chopsticks. My mind went into spasms, despite being completely used to seeing and using chopsticks to eat, there was just something very strange about watching someone eat fish and chips with them!
Right now I’m drinking green tea at an internet cafe at the train station waiting for the rail office to open so I can get my rail pass and go to Nikko.
