Tokyo Part II

After visiting Miyajima and Hiroshima we made our way back to Tokyo to close out our visit to Japan.


Our last day in Tokyo was spent visiting the neighborhood of Akihabara. It is known for its arcade games and other similar activities. There are buildings dedicated to the arcades and it is the closest I have felt to the Lost in Translation movie atmosphere.

We also decided we would go back to the spicy ramen restaurant from our first day as we liked it so much. In brief moment breaking character, we are attempting to only speak Spanish with one another, we were asked if we spoke English.  Our new friend for lunch, Aaron, was attending a conference on physics and astronomy. In short, dude was bright. For further reading on Aaron: http://www.as.utexas.edu/~asmith/

Our last day with Montse was spent eating sushi and getting ourselves organized for the next leg of our trip. Decisions were made. We purchased a new modern backpack that is super light to reduce the stress on my leg. Good news it seems to have helped a great deal and you can continue our adventure with us when we share our Bali experience.
