Japan Trip Day 5
Day 5, Monday 16th March
Spent most of the morning catching up on emails and sorting out stuff as Juunana was catching up on sleep. Woke her up at about 2 in the afternoon which was a bit rough but I did want to get going and do stuff. We went to Akihabara which was very eye opening and somewhere that all geeks/nerds/otaku want to go. Checked out lots of the shops which was depressing as I couldn’t really buy much. Did end up buying the Shirley and Kallen figures I have been after for a fair while so that was one benefit.

Didn't really stay as long as I had expected and thought as we left after about 4 hours. Didn't even get to a maid cafe which made me very sad but just means I am going to have to go back! However did see quite a few of the maids handing out leaflets and some looked very adorable! On another sad note the only proper photo I took was of a vending machine. Headed to Ikibukuro as Juunana was trying to find a specific doujinshi for a friend so looked through the doujin shops again.
After this we went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. It was here the curse of Bryan ordering food began with them not having the first choice of meal, drink AND dessert I wanted. It was a nice meal even after all that and a very nice evening.
