From Fukuoka we headed to Tokyo for a few days.






This place made me think of the wand shop in Harry Potter. Chopsticks of different lengths, materials, and shapes.




My friend's friend, the girl showing us around, was about the cutest thing ever. She's there in the white, with the lacey shorts. I definitely had a crush.






This is the giant Buddha of Kamakura, which is near Yokohama, where we stayed for a night before heading to the hotel in Tokyo.






Yokohama had a very nice feel to it. Quiet compared to Tokyo, but not a little country town by any means.




Asakusa in Tokyo. Not all of Tokyo was this crowded; this was a tourist sight of some sort.












The sign said to not throw anything into the pond but people most definitely fed these fish because when you leaned over the railing to peer at them they'd swim up and open their mouths expectantly.








I like that it's very obvious what this is.


During this trip to Asakusa I annoyed everyone by spending 45 minutes gift-shopping in this pottery store, and had the best Starbucks drink I've ever experienced: a matcha frappuccino. I have not been able to locate this in the States.
