I'm back! from Japan and a rabbit hole
Just back from Japan.
I hadn't been back to Japan since last summer, so I was great to be back there again. In this time I stayed at my parents' house in Yokohama about 3 weeks. Sadly, my flight was cancelled by stupid Travelocity once and had to reschedule my flight again. So 2 or 3 days before the flight, I tried my best to send messages to my Japanese friends. I was able to see some of them, but most of them were not able to change their busy work schedule and couldn't hang out together. Bummer.
Unfortunately, this blog post doesn't come with colorful pictures in Japan because I forgot to charge my digital camera and didn't bring the charger to Japan. Well, I took some pictures by using my mom's old cell phone, but I had no idea how to send those pictures to my email address(urrrgh I don't like cell phones for old people)
Anyway, here are what I did
Watching "Monk" DVDs with my parents at home
Eating yummy Japanese snacks
Reading my old Japanese books
Hanging out with my old friends almost everyday
Going to Roppongi, Yokohama, Minatomirai, Harajuku, Shibuya, Shinjuku etc
Spending $$$ at 100 yen stores(one dollar store in the US)
BTW have you ever seen this picture of Katy Perry?
This picture was taken at Alice in Wonderland themed restaurant called "Mahono Kunino Alice"(it means "Alice in Magical Land" in English) in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Since I found it on her Twitter, I really wanted to go there and finally I did! Actually, the place is run by the company also runs 2 other Alice in Wonderland themed restaurants in Tokyo and I had been both of them when I lived in Japan. I was planning to go there during dinner time, but I had an appointment to see my friend in Shibuya, so I stopped by during lunch hour. Honestly, there was no whimsy & magical atmosphere I got at 2 other Alice themed places and I felt the place was little bit cheap(pink decor, donut shaped cushions, crappy drink bar... can you understand what I'm talking about? They're more like "Alice in Sweetland") I assume it's because I went there during lunch hour. If you're interested, I definitely recommend you to visit at night. Probably they gonna lower the lights and you won't find their cheesy parts...) BTW the lunch menu food is reasonably priced(about 12 USD for lunch set with drink bar. FYI their gorgeous dinner set costs at least 37 USD...) and my shrimp tomato pasta was good.
If you wanna enjoy little bit more gorgeous Alice in Wonderland world, I recommend "Ehonno Kunino Alice" in Shinjuku. As the name tells("Ehon" means a picture book in English), the entrance doors shape like a huge book and their decor is more authentic than "Mahono Kunino Alice"
