Day 7: Harajuku bridge... Raining...? T__T

We went to the Harajuku Bridge today in search for some cool people with cool outfits but heh, it was raining today... Luckily there are umbrellas at the hostel :'D

We took another route to Harajuku. Got off in Yoyogi and walked. Took a wrong turn at first but we went back to the station and got it right after checking the map. Follow the Meiji street from Yoyogi to get to Harajuku. Not a long walk.

When we came to Harajuku. There were alot of umbrellas everywhere. Haha. Difficult to walk when there are tons of umbrellas. You don't want to poke someones eyes off.. xD The rain kept falling and falling non-stop until we were on our way home. The japanese have thought of everything. Plastic bags around you bags of clothes you've bought. Plastic bags for your umbrella outside every store. Even a machine helping you with the bag! Also a trash can next to it to throw the bag. Otherwise.. there are not so many trashcans in Japan. Mostly where the restaurant, food stand, outside convenience stores etc.
I spended quite alot of money today on clothes. A few for my sisters too. Hope they like them xD




So... on the way home. We kind of got lost again. Haha. We went to the train on another platform then ended up at another exit. Like out to an alley. So we started walking.
"Ah, I think it's that way"
After like 20 minutes or so (?) we asked a lady. She seem quite confused or scared xD But didn't really know where Edo Street where. She pointed at a direction which she thought it were. Headed that way. Found a map after 10 minutes and saw that we were heading back to Akibahara (Train from Harajuku -> Transfer in Yoyogi towards Chiba -> Akibahara is the station before Asakusa bashi were we went off) again. Haha. So we headed to Akibahara, took the JR Line to Asakusa bashi again and then headed back to the hostel. Quite an adventure. Haha :'D

... as you've probably seen, Fanta Grape is my new favourite. First drink in Japan and I love it! Not in Sweden though... T___T

  1. Many who have been in Japan loves the Fanta Grape as well, so I guess it must be good. ;D

    Hehe, seems a bit confusing with the trains and so on, glad you came back safely. ;)
