Tokyo, Japan, Wednesday Night

It was a cool, crisp evening tonight--down to 46/8--which was perfect tea drinking, food-onna-stick eating, and general walking around weather, so you're in luck! It's our last night in Tokyo, so make sure you get all of the things done!

The modern TRUNK hotel offers green spaces and wide balconies in the heart of Tokyo. Located just a stone's throw from the famous Shibuya, Aoyama and Harajuku neighborhoods, you'll find plenty to do around here.

The standard wide rooms with balcony with twin- or double beds you'll be sleeping in are a lot more modern, and each has a nice balcony with a hammock chair to chill out in. Enjoy, relax. Though for some reason, one of the balcony rooms is smaller than all the others. Hmm...

[ your room assignments can be found here! please keep the dirty stuff to your personal journals. ]]

Or spend some time in Trunk's comfortable lounge and have some cocktails and coffee.

Hungry? You'll find breakfast, lunch and dinner in the aptly named Trunk(Kitchen), featuring a range of both Japanese and international cuisine.

If Kitchen's fare isn't to your liking, there's also TRUNK(Kushi), a restaurant celebrating the fine art of taking meat and putting it on a stick. And offal. Lots of offal.

For those chasing the absolute best views Tokyo has to offer, this is the place to go. This tall building's two observation decks have free entry and has a spectacular view.

No, it's not what you think. The Joypolis is an indoor theme park filled with cutting-edge VR attractions from roller coasters to space simulations to haunted houses - perfect to entertain yourself on your last night in Tokyo.

These are alleys the way you picture an alley: a little narrow, a little foggy, and full of tiny bars. Most only have about five seats and often no real doors to speak of. Is there a better way to really embrace that Tokyo atmosphere?

The Roppongi and Shibuya are famous for their nightclubs, and you can buy a pass that allows you entry to most of them. So why not spend the night going from one club to another? All you have to do tomorrow is sit on a train.

Ever been to a traditional Japanese cabaret show? Now's your chance. Dancers wearing colorful costumes and keep going at impressive pace while you sit on your ass and have dinner.

Hey, you could just avoid all that excitement and get food at a vending machine restaurant. Don't bother looking for the underwear vending machine, though. It just spits out regular, unused underwear.

Blerg.

Julius ~~who has been around this whole time, I swear~~ kept trying to pull himself away from the view, but it was hard. All he wanted to do was leap from it, flap into the sky, and look down at the brilliant sprawl from above.

Stupid seal.

Alexis was absolutely going partying in Tokyo. What a better way to meet the locals, right? Sure she could barely understand the language but it's not like you could hear over music anyway.

The problem of course was actually going to be making the train tomorrow.

Could Belle understand any Japanese? No, not really.

Enjoying these performances shouldn't require fluency though. And the costumes were beautiful!
