Ginza & Roppongi!

Ok, first we went to Tokyo Dome to get us some Baseball Tickets (Hanshin Tigers versus Yomiyuri Giants!!!) for wednesday. After that we went to Ginza, the fanciest district of Tokyo. You'll find shops like Dior, Gucci, GAP and... the Sony Building!! That was mega awesome!! The first thing we saw was a gigantic aquarium filled with exotic fishes. The whole theme was Sony Aquarium. It has 8 floors where you can see televisions which shows some fishes or some Sony products and when you go to the 8th floor you can watch a 3D Aquarium movie! I stole the 3D glasses because it had the 'Sony Aquarium' stamp on it, as remembrance. XD

After the Sony Building we went to chill at the first Starbucks in Japan. Then we went to the East Imperial Garden just to find out it was closed today. Great. >.<;; So we headed to Roppongi, to the Modern Art Museum. For 1000 yen we were allowed to the enter the Mori building which was quite close to the Tokyo Tower (it's higher than the Tower!). The view was very nice, especially on the roof. After that we went to the Mori Art Museum where there was an exposition of some kind of French Artist. It was kinda morbid, the artist was really into the human body and pluches. But I kinda liked it. Amber didn't liked it though, she said she'll get nightmares after seeing that. XD

After the museum we went back to Ueno, we wanted to eat at the Doobies at first, but it was closed (what's up with today XD). So me and Amber went to some market looking store where we bought a Yomiyuri Giants shirts for 7 euro or so. XD I also finally bought the Adidas Limited Edition Sneakers at the ABC Mart! I also discovered a store in Ueno where they sell awesome clothing. I finally bought some pants and a very cool vest. We also went to the Book Off which sells quite cheap CD's. I bought the Stay Away single of L'Arc~en~Ciel for 105 yen (60 cents).

Tomorrow I'll go shop for a Yukata (for the Obon matsuri in Kyoto) and in the evening we'll go to Spaworld (Onsen) in Tokyo Dome! =D
