Pension You Matsumoto

... make room for them at buffets), Lonely Planet had a mention of one, and my brother had heard of them from some of his Animees so we decided to try it. We went to Sweets Paradise in Shibuya. You paid a flat fee and you're allowed to eat as much as you want for 90 minutes (for some reason they told us 80 minutes. Maybe it was b/c we were do American guys and they felt that we could take them out of business). There were many cakes ...

El d�a va oscureciendo y llegamos a "ROPPONGI", una de las zonas m�s modernas de Tokyo y en donde se encuentran sus tres edificios m�s altos: la Torre de Tokio (333 m), la Torre Mori (238 m) y la Torre Mid Town (248 m). �Menudo StarBucks Coffe!, �vaya tienda de Louis Vuitton!... todo aquello que quieras imaginar en marcas de alto ...

... some money on cab fare. Hopefully I can remember to ride on the left side of the street and the other vehicles remember to do the same. I'm also hoping that the rumors of English-speaking guides are true.

Adjusting my expectations... I had thought I'd zip through the castle and get to Kyoto early. Probably not. Everything takes longer than you think.

... walked the rest of the way to the park, through a forest. En route we took the wrong turning and ended up walking up a path marked with a sign warning us of poisonous snakes, whoopsy! When we finally got there it was wonderful. The monkeys are wild but you could get up really close to take pictures. Mark went so close I thought they were going to attack him!

... they are willing to share information, it just takes time. The ride back was filled with American and Japanese chatter, as we had all become good friends at this point. Bonding over questions and beer is never a bad thing :) We will be meeting up with a bunch of the students this thursday and most of them are coming to Boston this summer, which is really nice.
