Day 12 Tokyo

We started the day with a late breakfast, a trip to the local cat cafe and then we kinda figured out the subway system and went all the way across town to the Senjo ji and Skytree.

 
Then we went back to downtown area to see the imperial palace.  Except it closed 5 mins before.  The Japanese guard was not willing to bend the rules.  So we went back to harajuku and chilled a bit with a drink. 
Then Ehlan's friend Genta took us out! We had a delicious dinner, lots of drinks then ended the night at the batting cages! It was super fun! The bars were so tiny, sat like 4-7 stools, and I maybe had a few too many drinks but still managed to hit every baseball, ok maybe 2-3 misses.  Not many!

Day 11- Tokyo


Oi! Tokyo is super cool! I wanna go back some time and spend 2 weeks in Japan. 
Today we went to breakfast, then walked around Harajuku where we're staying. Bought many gifts mostly Hello Kitty and then ate some crepes. 
Then stopped at home to drop things  and met some ladies who were starring in Dream Girls! Unfortunately didn't start until wed when we have to leave. Then we saw a temple, and walked around the park. Saw bonsai trees.

Day 10 Busan to Tokyo

Flying to Tokyo! Got a little bumpy but made it to Narita... Asked about taxi and was going to be $250 USD, well that equivalent. So the train it was.  Was very easy and we got off at Harajuku, walked down Takeshita street and found our Airbnb around the corner.  We're right in it! Danielle found a fun place for dinner, it was cook your own and very delicious.

Tokyo is so fun! 
Exploring tomorrow and possibly a tour.

Day 9 - Busan

Fun day with Sarah, Cathy, and Danielle. First we went over to the APEX building and walked along a path and saw a mermaid statue. Then to the Buddist temple.  It was raining but it was still busy with lots of people.  It's really beautiful! 
Then we went to eat about 2 tables full of food. 
After that we were pretty soaked so we changed at home then back out to get a dinosaur chocolate egg. See video on fb.

Then we did a little shopping and off to a water fountain light show. It was cold, but really exciting. A night cap with the gals then we were back home.

Day 8 Seoul to Busan

Train to Busan then got into our Airbnb. It's tiny but very nice.  We walked to the beach and there was a bunch of sand castles! 
We took the subway to meet sarah and she took us to a place they call penis magkeoli for dinner.  Really good! Lots of carved penises. We ate some traditional foods and flavored rice wine. So good. 

Then we went over to a micro brew pub and sat near the window looking out to the beach and bridge. It was really cool.  Called it a night aroind 1:30 am. Which is tough cause I think we're all kinda jet lagged or just in general exhausted from all the travel. But we had fun. So much fun! 


Day7- dmz


DMZ was intense! 
We then got back to the hotel and went out to dinner after having some drinks at Kathy Bar! The owner was so fun! Then we changed and had a really nice dinner on the suggestion of one of my former colleagues Susan! It was great!
