Yeah I had too much luggage to want to try the trains after landing. Taxi to hotel, drop stuff off, decompress, then get used to the trains without all the baggage.

Were you able to stay awake on the plane? I forget if I said in your other topic but going TO japan is a flight on which you have to try and power through it and not sleep at all until you're ready for bed at the hotel.

Doesnt always work regardless - I stayed awake the whole time but still woke up at 4AM and had to get some snacks at 7/11. Was able to get back to sleep for a few hours though (and was fine for the rest of the trip)

Pics of view?

Yeah I didnt sleep on the plane, was awake for nearly 24 hours. But my body was like its 630/7am time to wake up. I just had a broken sleep. Feel like it will get slightly better each day.

So for dinner, I did a burger place at my hotel called Shogun Burger. Easily in the top 5 burgers I have ever had. Jetlag is still getting me. Not really going to do much this evening cause of that. Did have a nap, so hopefully that doesnt fuck me over tonight. Think I might just play the new Zelda, purchased it digitally and all. Suppose to be rainy tonight and tomorrow, so will see what I am willing to do.

Shibuya is so much fun. We walked around there a bunch, went to the Shibuya pokemon center (really that whole floor - had a Capcom store, digimon store, anime store, and a few other ones like that - i think it was called the PARCO building), cat cafe, Shibuya 109, got ramen, popped in and out of all sorts of places there. And got an awesome omakase at the station, which of course is massive.

One of my favorite places was this church themed club where the seats were church benches and the DJ booth was designed like a pulpit. It was too funny, we saw the illuminated cross from across the street and were like "oh that's an interesting place for a church," but the nun-dressed bouncer was of course a very attractive lady and there appeared to be a menu out front, so we crossed and realized it was a club. Too funny.

All that and like... we didn't even scratch the surface. Cannot wait to go back, especially now knowing how easy the trains and whatnot are, we will probably spend a few nights in Osaka and make sure we get to do a Mt Fuji trip

After the Gyoen Garden, I went to a stamp museum, was a bit of a walk, but still kinda neat. Was very quiet.

Dad is a stamp collector, so grabbed some Japanese stamps for a souvenir for him.
