Day 18: Tokyo Sky Tree area / Free Time


Hailey & Tanner: 

We went to the Sumida aquarium, which was filled with a huge variety of fish. There was a whole section dedicated to jellyfish as well as a section filled with various types of goldfish. 




Then we went to a science area where there was a sword made from meteorite and different types of robots. 



Cloudy and rainy, so can't even see the top of Tokyo Sky Tree





Jaimy (Hannah), Dante, Annalee, Megan: 

When Sensei said we could go anywhere that we wanted to today, we all just looked at each other and gave each other that look that said that we all wanted to go to Akihabara. Our first adventure was trying to find the Dangan-Ronpa cafe. Dangan-Ronpa is a video that Dante plays and is really into it was also turned into an anime which a lot of us had watched, so we were all down to go there. It took us about 30-ish minutes to find this darn cafe and we went in about 5 circle in the process, but it was worth it. The food looked cool and tasted good. You got a coaster with every item that you ordered off the menu. The video game music was playing in the background and the characters were all over the walls. After that we headed out to find some anime figurines. 

We went to multiple different places, most of which were underground. In Japan underground shops really aren't that sketchy, unless you find the adult shops. Which I admit, we stumbled on a few. We went down a few steps and then you saw something that you weren't looking for and you'd turn around and head right back up. But we really did find some good deals on figures. There was a second hand shop that I (Megan) went to last time we were in Akihabara that we went to, which was in a basement. We couldn't quite find it, but we bumped into Cole and he showed us the way. 

We headed back to the meeting place with plenty of time to spare. It was a great day even if it was raining all day.
