good times, good times.

Everything's in vending machines there... it's so great.



Yes, even alcohol.



Fun times at Karoke with the kids I met at the school.  The room was all dark and it was all blacklighted, but it didn't come out right in the picture.



Three hours later...  From L to R- Allie, me, Laura, and Roz.  That was a fun night, those girls were really cool.



This is the school where my aunt teaches- ASIJ.  I took some classes here for a day- it was fun.



At ASIJ where the high school kids have their lockers, hang out, etc.  Ahh I wish I went there.



An example of a regular house in Tokyo-- pretty small, not much room.



A woman in a traditional kimono in the subway station



A part of town called Kichijoji- very fun.



yum, yum.



They have very strange magazines there.



Alright, for all you guys who like Asians...  you would probably LOVE  the schoolgirls there.  Their skirts are the shortest ever....



Some true Harajuku girls... omg there were the craziest people there (in Harajuku, another part of town) that i've EVER seen.



Having a smoke break? You have to smoke at this little station, where it gives you fresh oxygen or something.



I guess this is where all the crazy Harajuku girls get their outfits.



This is at the Park Hyatt, where Lost in Translation was filmed. Bill Murray sat at the bar on the far right.  We had brunch here and it was delicious.



A view of the skyline from the Hyatt. If you look really closely you could see Mt. Fuji. It's kind of to the left, it looks like a cloud.



I don't know about you, but the pig rectum sounds pretty darn tasty to me.



In Harajuku-- a shop full of nothing but condoms.  WOW.



An Eastern-style toilet... I was too chicken to try and use it. I don't like the idea of squatting into a little hole.



The Japanese equivalent of The Dollar Store, but 30 times better.



Everyone rides bikes there. It's really cool.



Some kids we met on the subway.  They were awesome- they tried to talk to us, and they got one of the girls to "translate"... hahaha this was proabably one of my best memories of the trip.



These are the guys.  They told me and my aunt that they loved us... hahaha.



This was at a Shinto shrine. On Sundays they have things called "shrine sales", with a bunch of antiques and cool stuff.



Browsing at the shrine sale.



Me in front of the shrine

aaaand that's all for now.  Of course I have a LOT more, but I don't have the time or patience to put all of them on here.
