Day 1 in Tokyo, Japan
I know it's only been a YEAR since we went to Japan, but hey, I still have photos to share! School has totally consumed my life for the past year, but I'm graduating in 2 weeks and can't wait to finally have some time for my blog again! No more excuses. :)
Making Friends in Yoyogi Park
Oh, hi! I'm on spring break, so that means I have a life again for about a week! I think I spent the first day of my break pretty well. I went rock climbing, had brunch with friends, ran lots of errands, spent some time blogging, and then I saw Beauty and the Beast! (SO good!)
Tsukiji Fish Market
So, because of Adam's busy work schedule, he had to leave Japan a day earlier than I did. When he met me in Japan at the beginning of the week, he had just come from a two-week work trip in China. They usually fly him to South Korea before flying him home, so after he left Japan, he flew back to South Korea before catching his flight back to Seattle. I could have gone home the same day, but I decided to extend my trip an extra day mainly because it was cheaper to do so.
Making Soba Noodles in Japan
The train stations in Japan are spectacular. Tokyo's public transit system is incredible, but I was blown away by just how immaculate and huge each major station really is. Shinjuku Station in Tokyo is the #3 largest train station in the world, with 36 platforms and 200 exits.
