On tuesday 26th Aug, Philip, Terre and Calum took me on a wee trip to Yokohama- a city about 1 hour south of tokyo. They have a huge China town there so we had a good wonder around!!! So quiet compared to tokyo!!! We even enjoyed a lovely Indian meal at one of Philips friends restaurant! It was nice to taste a good curry after 5 months and yummy naan bread! Ofcourse when we got home it was dinner time but no one was hungry after our huge lunch so we all settled down to a movie and a glass of wine! Supper time was pretty special we had mince and tatties- philip and terre had made some on the monday night but ofcourse I was out all day so I missed it. They saved me plenty! DELISH!! It was a lovely last night in the most amazing city!
The next day, Philip was off to work early and Terre callum planned to meet friends so I hung out at the house in the morning and got ready to go into Shibuys for my last sights of Tokyo. Unfortunetely I couldnt get a big enough locker at the station to store my suitcase so I had to drag it about all morning!! Headed along to the crazy scramble crossing at shibuya- it was the quiet spell, but even then its pretty amazing to see the huge crossing! I headed up to the 2nd floor in Starbucks to get better view and chill out with a smoothie since it was the hottest day since I arrived! Typical! I floated around there for a while, grabbedd some lunch at McDonalds- I know right, the most unhealthy trip ever!!! Come on tho I usually live on rice! Then Philip came to meet at 1pm to make sure I got on the train ok and to wave me off, luckily he did because we couldnt find the ticket office since it turned out to be more complicated and I needed to buy 2 tickets and transfer to a another line! aarrgghh! Eventually we got everything sorted just in time and said farewell to Philip and started my journey back to korea.
What a trip!!!! Luckily I have been invited back whenever I want! I hope I get the chance!!!
