Tokyo - Day 3

We practically spent the whole day shopping rather than sight seeing. We skipped the Imperial Palace and the numerous Shinto shrines but never ever intended to miss any malls but that's impossible.There are just too many malls in Tokyo. Believe it or not, we haven't even covered the shopping area within our hotel's vicinity.

We managed to visit a food court similar to that in Singapore at Venusfort but interesting to know there were only four stalls - all Japanese stalls.

For dinner,we managed to find a Yakitori bar at Ropongi but only after plenty of walking from Tokyo Tower. In short, I walked too much and what's worst in a new pair of shoes didn't make things easier.

Supper at a push cart store that sold 'yong tau foo' was interesting . I'll upload the photos once am back home so you can see what I meant by road side stall. :)

We encountered many stumbling drunkards along the way and trust me, it was hilarious seeing these guys lying on the road and best, making their way into the train - drunk.

Yakuza - Japanese mafia were also spotted in Shinjuku last night as we walked around the red light district. My, they still wear clogs here. Shall update you more again later.
