PICTURES!

---

*EDIT* We're having technical difficulties with the pictures right now, so bear with us until we can figure out how to get the placement right.

Here goes, time for pictures from the last couple days. First one is our closet room, which you can literally see most of in this picture:

So, that's pretty much it for our first accomodations, haha. Our first full day started with a trip to the Edo Tokyo Museum, which was pretty cool. They seem to like having interactive items in the museum, all of which we decided to try. Here are a few:

When we finished the museum, we went to the top floor to get some lunch and discovered there was a pretty good view of the city. You can see the sumo arena in the first one, and then in the second picture we used Jordan's awesome new camera to zoom in close and get a view of street life in Japan nowadays.

After lunch, we wandered the streets for hours all the way over to Akihabara and went through electrictown looking for cheap iPhones and iPods. We didn't find the $37 iPhone that I've been told about, but we did make it to a Pachinko parlor and see plenty of other interesting sights.

Total waste of ¥1000. I had no idea what was going on, and the guy next to me was so focused on his game he wouldn't answer me when I asked for an explanation of the game. He's also the only fat person we've seen in Japan, which makes sense as I think he just plays pachinko all day.

This t-shirt was awesome enough to take a picture.

After going through electric town for a while, we got hungry so we wandered back to Asakusa and went by Popeye Beer Club, which is supposedly the best beer bar in Japan. I definitely had high expectations and I wasn't disappointed at all. I got an '04 Barleywine from Japan, as well as a couple other Japanese beers, and to top it off I found Cantillon in Japan.

I can't even find this stuff at home. I love Japan.

We also ate some raw emu from Australia, but we ate it before thinking to get a picture, so we snapped a picture of it from the menu. I don't understand why they dumped Italian dressing all over the meat, but it was good nonetheless.

And last but not least, cheers to a good day.

Closet room
Yes, we stayed here the last two nights. You can see most of the room in this picture, literally.

Interactive museum
They used to carry royal women in this thing, now it's a novelty item for tourists in a museum.

Jordan's turn
Yeah, he enjoyed this.

Cityscape
Some of Tokyo as seen from the restaurant in the top of the Edo Tokyo Museum.

Jordan's awesome camera!
From the top of the Tokyo Edo Museum, we used Jordan's awesome new camera to zoom in on citylife in the streets of Tokyo.

Pachinko!
Smoky, too loud, and full of otakus.

I had to do it
I wasted ¥1000 playing this game and never had any idea what I was doing.

Uniqlo tshirts
Wow, haha. So funny we had to take a picture.

Hahaha.
Nothing out of the ordinary here.

Cantillon in Japan!
Can't believe I found it, they had two kinds as well as a ton of other rare good stuff.

Raw emu

The end of a good day.
