    Ahhhhhhhh Harajuku on a Sunday.   Absolute bedlam. 

     

    Back to Ueno, Tokyo on Saturday for a week then home.   Disk Union in Shinjuku, here we come.

     

    Regards Cazzesman

     

    I lived near Ueno for a few years. This so - called 'downtown area' was my favourite part of Tokyo.

     

    I imagine you are familiar with Ameyoko? New Years eve down those narrow streets is Harajuku / Shinjuku on steroids. Everyone is last minute shopping for seafood etc. You can hardly move. Worse than a mosh pit. 

     

    Enjoy the rest of your stay. Slightly envious esp with the exchange rate. When I was there it was 60y to aud. Best I saw was 80... :D

    Back out on the street ran across these cute girls - not sure what they were selling but they were certainly trying very hard.

    The young guy  is having a serious think about it but can’t quite make up his mind.

    They are promoting a Maid Cafe (of which there are many in the area). Nerdy males go there to be served by waitresses in maid uniforms. All above board ;)

  3. When I lived in Tokyo I was paying $35 for Laphroaig 10yr, $12 for blends, $50 for a Bordeaux 1er cru 2nd label... Not to mention tobacco...

     

    Enjoy Clay!
