Tokyo Days

In Tokyo we went a little crazy! We went all around the city. First we went to Asakusa after meeting up with another friend of ours. She flew in from Fukuoka, adn I haven't seen her in 4 years as well... if fact I haven't seen any of my Japanese friends in 4 years. So after meeting up, we were off to lunch and then we ran around Asakusa. There are soooooooooooo many cute rabbit goods here I can't even begin to tell you about them! I went a little nuts shopping, but it was awesome! After that we headed over to Akihabura for MORE shopping! Ha ha, I LOVE shopping! I bought a new rice cooker for my hubby as a gift! He really loves my rice cooker that I bought when I am living here before, but it's too small for both of us. After that, we went to Yokohama for a wonderful fireworks display! It was so beautiful, but very dangous. There were soooooo many people and they all want to see the firworks so they are pushing and shoving. I was a little scared, but it was great anyway!
The next day we went to Kamakura. We saw the BIG buddha. It was my one friend's frist time to see . She had never been there, but my host family took me there when I was living in Tokyo. It was great to see it again! We also saw some temples, but I don't know the names of all of them! @-@ Too many names to remember!
