Tokyo, no food and a long bath…

Well, today will be a short entry as we didn’t do much today. When we woke up we mostly packed our stuff, checked out and then ate some breakfast. After that we sat in the common room on the second floor a while and enjoyed what could be our last time of a stable internet connection in a comfortable place during our visit here in Japan. When the time closed to 13:00 we went to the station where we took the first Shinkansen to Tokyo.

When we finally arrived in Tokyo and got to Kita-Urawa we decided that we would eat, go to a Sento, ignore the party that was going on today and instead go all out on the party on Saturday and get some foodstuffs. Before we went away we kind of consumed almost everything that would go bad during our leave. So now when we return we had no food to speak of to eat for breakfast or even a evening snack.

After unpacking our bags and packing some stuffs for the sento we ate some Yakiniku and then went for a 2, almost 3, hour long bath in the more expensive sento with the electrical chairs. After that we went home. For some reason though we were so tired that no shopping got done. So we just had to wish for an early morning with good weather and go get some breakfast then. Drak went to the internet around 24:00 but since it was raining I preferred to wait to check internet until tomorrow. On Monday we’ll talk with Higuchi about getting internet here, but until then our freespot is the only place we’ll go to.

Best Regards,
