We've spent the past few days bumming around Tokyo. We went to The Emperor's Palace and walked around the gardens. Went to a really nice Contemporary Art Museum, drank in the golden gai (with a clown at a bar that serves everything for 666 yen, and is themed around heavy metal and horror movies). The area has hundreds of cute/odd little bars that only hold 4-5 people. It’s kind of a tourist trap, but still entertaining. We also went to Roppongi Hills and hung out with all the rich people and walked through their pretty little parks and hit up a couple galleries. One had a huge, experimental/architecture "capsule hotel" built in the window. We hung out in it for a while and watched japanese game shows. Sunni wanted to go see the Sejo temple and while we were in Asakusa, we took a relaxing bath at a traditional onsen. I went to the same place last time I was here. Nothing has changed, they still have a huge koi pond and they still let Yakuza in. The guy next to me had a full back tattoo and looked very intimidating. It’s a little odd to be naked around gangsters.
