More pictures of Tokyo

Mayo (for those ppl that know her) took me to Shinjuku to the ever famous youngster hang out place-the 109 street!! You can get many great and cheap things there

Apparently, this is a popular meeting place. This is a loyal dog that is always waiting for its owner!

Yeah, the rainbow bridge from Odaiba, very pretty at night. Too bad my camera doesn't take good night pictures. Looks kind of artsy this way though don't you think?

and the crazy country Japan

I thoguht I should start with this picture to tell what a crazy country Japan is!! Aside from all the typical Japanese food we know, you can actually find a lot of clever MODIFIED WESTERN food in Japan!! Look a shrimp burger.

The superem court of Tokyo City is just right across from the hotel I stayed in.

According to my friend, trains in the mornings of Tokyo are 10 times as packed as this!! crazy!!
Here is a story about Japanese washroom etiquette- Squat toilet. Also, women in Japan are embarrassed about the natural sounds they make, so, washrooms are equipped with music to cover up the sound!!

A shot of the orientation hall.

Lots more pictures and advantures to come!
