This time my buddy Darrell and I go to the Star Wars Identities Exhibit which is a collection of the original props and costumes used in the movies. This particular one was in Shinagawa in Tokyo Japan. It was pretty cool, they had everything from light sabers to tie fighters to the costumes that Luke and Leia wore.
We also go to Odaiba, a man made island in Tokyo Bay, across from the rainbow bridge in Tokyo. There's all sorts of attractions there, including Aqua City, where we went to sample the ramen park that has ramen from all over the country. Afterwards we went to the Gundam Base to see the giant Gundam robot. It's just a statue, but it was really cool. We also walked past the Fuji Television building, a pretty unique looking building that is the headquarters of lots of popular TV shows in Japan. There was also a replica of the statue of liberty strangely.
Afterwards, we met up with my friend Michael and went to Akihabara, the electronics and video game mecca of the world basically. We hit up the classic Super Potato, a retro video game shop that is great fun to look at and a popular tourist destination. And also Kotobukiya, a really cool store that has lots of statues and figures from all sorts of series in including Mega Man and Dragon Quest.
Then we had the long train home as usual.
