Return to Tokyo 2023

 We end our Japan travel by returning to Tokyo. We didn't spend too much time here this time around.

My hotel room in Shinjuku was not bad. Once again, the three of us. 

Shibuya

Once again, you will find the Capcom Tokyo store in the Parco store in Shibuya. The Nintendo store and the Pokemon center are found here as well. A little walk from here is the last Tower Records. Bought some CDs. Good times.

You must get reservations to come here. Make sure you book asap. The first picture is Shibuya Scramble crossing from above. Tokyo Tower on the next. Hachiko week btw. I did get a picture with the Hachiko statue but its in my sisters phone.

Godzilla Head (Shinjuku)

The head in the observation deck is no longer accessible to the public unless if you are staying in the hotel there. That sucks. Anyhow, the 2nd picture is Omoide Yokocho. It's an alleyway full of eats. Kinda tight fit but you may find something that fancies you.

The Kirby statue is in Kiddy Land.

This is another one I think that you need to get reservations. Also, try to wear shorts or long pants that can be folded above your knees. You will walk in water for two areas I believe. Its a neat place worth seeing.

It just so happened that we were around this place trying to transfer to another train. I heard about how small this figure is on the internet. But since I was a few mins walk away, I decided to check out if the rumors were true. It was and is. The statue is not worth going out of your way to see. There isn't much around here to see as well. But for your viewing pleasure regardless.

Thank you Jesus for a safe trip and back. Till next time folks.

Sapporo, Japan Feb 2025 (Pic Heavy)

  Early February trip to Japan. Feb 2 (Hawaii time) Flight from HNL to New Chitose  Food from ANA airlines. Was not a direct flight. One layover. Then a one hr train ride to Sapporo from New Chitose Airport. Landed around 1030PM at night.  (Each day categories pics start from bottom to top, sorry didn't feel like fixing this).  Feb 3 ( Sapporo) (Will be Japan dates from this moment forward) The famous Nikka sign and pretty much a midnight snack before bed. According to google, the restaurant is called Asahi Ga Nobori Susukino and its right across the Nikka sign and has a animatronic ramen display. It's a good restaurant that features a staple of Sapporo: Miso. One of the few places that is open to a much later time. I think 3AM?  Feb 4  Nijo Market  Yup. Hawaii. Nijo Market. Brunch pretty much at Ohiso . Gets packed quick so find a spot to catch your grub quickly. Lots of similar restaurants around here like Ohiso but like I sai...

Hawaii Foodiecon 2025 and Yakiniku Like.

  Yakiniku Like Foodiecon was a enjoyable experience. Quite a bit of food vendors. It can be fairly expensive depending on the stuff you buy. Got to try Yakiniku Like over here in HNL. Brings me back to Sapporo which was actually only two months ago. Once again, good if you want a quick meal but if you hoping to be fulfilled, you may want to check into a Yakiniku buffet instead. 

Osaka (Dotombori, Nara, Universal Studios Japan etc...) 100th post for this blog!

 Return to Osaka! It's been 4 years and it was nice to be back. My 100th post for this blog as well! Dotombori Back to Namba Oriental Hotel. Got a fairly decent room for 3. Also did a Pig cafe, The Pigs kept coming to me for sleep. They were probably tired all day. It was roughly 1830PM by then.  Nara   Even the Deers here wait for the bus. J/k. They always hungry so feed them the crackers you can purchase from the vendors on the streets. We didn't do temples this time. You can say we came here for a few hours to feed the deers and that was it.  Back to Dotombori    I've always wanted to visit the Capcom store. Sadly, the displays are the most impressive thing about the Osaka store. You get to play Street Fighter 6 on the big screen but everything in the store is pretty lackluster. The Capcom store and it's superhero neighbors are in the Parco store btw. Universal Studios Japan Pretty much came here for Super Nintendo World (ser...
