Tokyo

















Arriving in at Narita Airport from Bali, it felt as if we had landed on a different planet, not just a new country. Chaos was replaced with efficiency, and it is hard to believe that a city of 13 million can be so clean!

We are staying with friends here in Tokyo. Kua, who was Veronica's last roommate before me, now lives in Tokyo with her husband. WOW is the only way to describe their apartment!

They have robo-toilets, literally toilets that you operate with a keypad! We will post commode pictures later, I promise.

Our first few days were spent wandering around the Shibuya (home to the world's busiest intersection), the Harajuku (fashionista's) district, and Nakamegura (where the hipsters live). Good places to people watch.
