Well, I arrived in Japan and settled in, started school, and started to get used to people driving on the "wrong" side of the street (that's relative but to me it is). However, not 2 weeks after arriving in Japan did my birthday arrive! I didn't really want to make a huge deal of it because a lot was happening, all I really wanted was a cake (thank you Saya and Krystal).
My birthday started just shy of midnight when Saya came home with cake and wine for me. She was the first person to day happy birthday. After getting some sleep, we both got up and got dressed because Saya was gonna take me out on a date!
First we went out to Harajuku. At Harajuku there is Takeshita street, where you can shop and get some good food. We walked around, and went shopping. That was also where we had lunch. After that we went to a museum near Ueno Park that basically walked us through Showa-era Japan. Then we went to a Temple in Ueno Park not far from there and we got to see a lake and a children's Park along the way.
Last but not least, we got dinner at café gusto, a chain restaurant in Japan. After that we got tired so we headed back home, but it was a good birthday!
