Here is some video from today in Shinjuku... Very busy at night with many young people out. 2 different men asked if we wanted to have sex with prostitutes. "Japanese girls will do anything..." Ah, no thank you.
All of today's Shinjuku pics are here.

Japan: Tokyo Station Walk
Tokyo Station is the largest train station I have ever been in. Joe thought it would be fun to show people how long it takes to get from one train to another. This is from the Chuo Line area (Mid-Town) to the Keiyo Line (To Disneyland)... All sorta of small shops and stuff to see along the way. Also tons of people coming back from Disneyland with balloons, popcorn buckets and shopping bags.
Japan: Gay Tokyo
With a city this large, one would think the gay part of town would be bigger. This is one of the only couple of very small streets that make up the gay section. It's only about 5 square blocks big...
Shinjuku 2-Chome is the gay area. On this make those roads are one car wide with a small side walk area...

Japan: Mt Dew

The Mt Dew along with everything else taste different. I'm guessing they use real sugar instead of corn to make it sweet. It's okay tasting. That Max Air 3 is sorta like a very light Mt Dew. Sorta diet tasting, but no weird chemical taste. I prefer normal dew. All 3 of those came from vending machines.

Japan: Mermaid Lagoon at DisneySea
Here is the last of the videos from DisneySea... A quick walk through of Mermaid Lagoon. It's mostly inside. Very amazing theming. Great for a rainy day, like when we were there on day 2.
Vamp Joe in a Fine Video
Here is my man in a Fine Bros video. Sadly his scene was cut from the final video, but here it is in the extra footage.
Japan: All sorts of crazy... Snacks



Mt Dew... Not crazy, just exciting that I finally found some. Haven't had it yet, but excited to see what it taste like. Coke is so different tasting. Way less sweet. Very strange, but still good.

More fun food pics here.
Japan: KitKat Bars
Apparently Kit Kats are popular in Japan. They come in boxes and are packed by 2 sticks in 2 wrappers inside. So far I have found 6 flavors. I keep looking for more flavors...
Regular:

Normal, Just like America
Green Tea:

Yummy, just like what you would expect. Green chocolate outside, white wafer inside.
Apple Vinegar:

A bit strange. Apple flavor with a bit of extra tang. White outside.
White Chocolate:

Expresso Coffee:

Kinako (Toasted Soy Bean Flour):

Tasty. It doesn't really taste like Soy, more sugar and maybe a little peanut butterish, hard to describe.
I just googled KitKats and crap there are/have been a ton of flavors in Japan. Check it out.

Japan: Quick Tour around Ginza at Night
Today we walked all around Ginza. Boy are my feet and legs getting tired of walking. Very awesome, very bright at night and full of people. I'm thinking it gets way busier. I have seen that big X intersection packed with people. (Up to 10,000 can cross at once from what I have heard).
Here are all the pics from Ginza today.
Japan: Din Tai Fung

Japan: Tokyo DisneySea: The Legend of Mythica Show
This is a really fun show. We watched it from the front of the park on Tuesday and from the top of the Castle today (Thurs). It was raining when the video was taken and really sunny when the photos were shot on Tues. I edited it down. It's about a 20 min show.

Japan: Pooh's Hunny Hunt Video
As promised. I love this ride. Joe and I agreed it's our favorite attraction at TDL.
Japan: Pooh's Hunny Hunt
I have heard that the Tokyo Pooh was the best and boy that is dead on. Amazing. No track, all free moving cars. They go in groups of 3 and have different paths through the attraction rooms. Really cool. At one point they bounce along with Tigger. Just amazing. Blows the Anaheim version out of the water a million times over. We are going back tonight for more Pooh's Hunny Hunt!!!







More Pooh pics here
I'm going to try and shoot a video of it tonight. :-)

Japan: Queen of Hearts Banquet Hall
Tokyo Disneyland has some amazing theming. The best restaurant theming of ANY Disney park I have been to in-fact. But the winner for best overall has got to be Queen of Hearts Banquet Hall.
