Sunday was our last day in Tokyo and it was a hot day but we set off and admired the cows on top of this roof as we made our way to the train station ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150682 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150683 and then took the train to Takeshita-dori ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150684 which was a remarkable and crowded street to explore ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150685 with dog clothes ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150686 and fake money in Daisy's 105 yen store ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150687 along with all flavor of fireworks ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150688 before we came across the Harrad's knockoff ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150689 and this warning sign ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150690 as we continued down the crowded street ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150691 and saw interesting outfits for maids ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150692 when this man insisted on taking my photo and so I took his ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150693 as we passed this store ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150694 and Suzanne became enamored with stores that sold socks ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150695 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150696 as I looked down the street at where we had been ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150697 and what was to come ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150698 including these outfits ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150699 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150700 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150701 and then a crepe stand ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150702 before some more outfits came into view ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150703 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150704 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150705 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150706 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150707 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150708 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150709 before we came upon Store My Ducks ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150710 and eventually made our way back to Omote-sande where the architecture was interesting ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150711 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150712 as were the foods being offered at Wolfgang Pucks ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150713 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150714 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150715 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150716 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150717 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150718 but we stopped for more mundane drinks at a cafe to cool ourselves ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150719 as Suzanne viewed the map ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150720 so that we could make our way to the Oriental Bazaar ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150721 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150722 where she made one final purchase ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150723 and we made our way down the street ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150724 past the fire hydrant ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150725 and this Armani sign for Jane's collection ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150726 and the local Gold's Gym ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150727 to the subway station ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150728 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150729 pausing for this photo of the smoking location ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150730 with its warnings ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150731 and on to the Ginza line to Suboya ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150732 once the train arrived. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150733 While we were overwhelmed by the location, we did find our way to a noodle shop ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150734 where this was Suzanne's lunch ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150735 including this very interesting tempura ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150736 and my more basic lunch though I ate many of her noodles. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150737 Next we were back to the train station ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150738 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150739 and on to Akibahra where this was the street scene ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150740 but we avoided the knife and weapon shop ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150741 though we did admire some of the food options nearby ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150742 and the vertical buildings with everything you'd ever want ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150743 including this fan that runs on usb power ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150744 and many stores like this ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150745 as the street was closed on Sunday to entice the crowds who were surely there ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150746 and this street scene ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150747 gave way to this pachinko parlor ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150748 with the day's magic numbers ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150749 as pachinko ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150750 and structures ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150751 and crowds defined the neighborhood ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150752 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150753 along with our good friend, the colonel. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150754 I bought a pastry that came with these eating instructions ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150755 but the instructions from the person who sold it to me were fortunately more clear even though I violated them. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150756 This locale (Yodobashi camera) represents ground zero of the area and although I took no photos inside, it was a remarkable experience. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150757 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150758

Our time winding down, we went to a local place for sinner where this was Suzanne's last sushi ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150759 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150760 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150761 and my tofu dish ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150762 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150763 and the blueberry tofu cheesecake which gave a sweat send to a wonderful trip. Sayanora. ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150764 ../../../Sabbat/2012/06.29-07.16.12Japan//P1150765
