Day 8: Tokyo: ROBOT RESTAURANT

We started today off pretty quietly, with a walk around the Imperial Palace. It's about 5km around, and just beautiful! Especially on a sunny day like today.

Everything here in Tokyo is just so intricately beautiful - from their spiders (which are actually pretty big) to their man-hole covers, everything seems to be pretty!

Seeing as the morning was so sunny, we went to the Government Municipal Building again to see if the view was better. It was, but still couldn't quite see Mt Fuji.

The subway system in incredible. There is an entire world underneath the city. Today, the station we were at was over a kilometer long, and had it's own shopping center and restaurants under there!!

The main thing we wanted to do today though, was the Robot Restaurant in Shinjuku. It was crazy!!! I don't know what I expected, but I guess it was something like what we saw... I don't have much to say about it other than it was nuts, and glitz, and glam, and crazy and eccentric and weird and great!

PS. Last night, we went to Karaoke with some of the other people staying at the hostel - it was hilarious and fun!! You know it's a good night, when it's midnight, and a guy called Sushi is buying the whole group a round of sake! Absolutely great bunch of people staying here :D

Tomorrow - more gardens xx
