Today was Tokyo Tower day. After our morning breakfast of apple pie and fruit juice, we headed off to to the tower. First I wanted to go to TV Tokyo to hunt down Yossie XD as usual she wasn't there...she was most likely enjoying her last day as a morning musume member :p Anyway after taking photos of the TV Tokyo building we headed off towards Tokyo Tower.... we kinda made a detour to this shop which sold make up, I bought some foundation, eye shadow, eye liner and mascara. The lady was sooooooooooo nice, she gave us tonnes of free gifts inluding lip gloss, more foundation, a make up kit etc... she also saw how hot we were feeling and gave us a free orangy drink... it was quite nice :) After the freebies we ... read more

Ok after abit of sleep, we got ready to have a fairly quiet day. I bumped into Rob and told him the adventures of the plane, and went to have a shower... soooooo needed. Our plans for today were to go to Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku. First we went to Mister Dounuts for our morning Fruit Juice and Apple Pie :p Soooooooooooo tasty. As usual we woke up far too early for the shops to be open so we walked to Ueno Park. It was greenery day today so we managed to get into Ueno Zoo for free. We saw pandas, red pandas, bears, elephants sooo many animals. After looking at all the animals we made our way to the first Hello! Project shop of the day :p There wasn't anything left that i wanted so ... read more

Asia » Japan » Tokyo » Asakusa May 3rd 2007

So it’s the first day in Japan.. I’m sooooooo excited… we landed at 9.15am this morning and yeah well didn’t start too well. Once we had been dropped off at the train station, kira and I went for a quick coffee and biscuit at Starbucks before heading off on the Skyliner to Ueno Station. Mad as we are, and sick of being on any moving transport we decided it would be fun to walk from Ueno station to The Taito Ryokan where we are staying. It was like an 8 min walk but it took us a little bit longer… we got a tiny bit lost :p I did get to practice my basic Japanese…   Me: すみません、どこですか。 Lady: いま。 Me: はい。 Lady points at map Me: ありがとぅございます。 Yeah so that was it XD so basic ... read more

This morning before we went to the airport, Kira and I went to the post office for funs… O.o sorta…. We then went to sainsburys for last min foods for flights. When we got back we watched some random mid day TV (Rubbish as usual) and the wonderful new that a helicopter had gone missing.. That is all that was on the TV I was kinda bored.. oh yeah and OK and Hello Magazines were still arguing :p Anyways back to travelling…. We left for the airport, our driver was INSANE.. I swear her was speeding!! He didn’t wear his seat beat and was just scary dodging in and out of cars :s. We got to the airport and it literally took us 5 mins to get though Heathrow check in and Security, I was sooooo ... read more
