Frozen underpants

Yeah i am finally here! At the land of no return of yen, land of loose socks, land of anime styled pedestrains, land of expensively-assembled eateries, land of suck-all-foreigners'-moeny-dry, land of congested train cabins. Sashiburi ne, nippon.

What a shag day. Basically we reached Narita airport at 8 a.m after a delay due to some fault of the wind balance mechanism and straight after that we lugged our luggage to the limited express train and took a 1 hour journey to our place of stay which was an extremely minuscle yet cosy place where we will sleep on futons and share washrooms like students in a dormitory and after we took a two hour nap till 2 plus pm we took off for the famous shooping paradise shibuya which was indeed a fashion capital of some sort but i don't really think that is my cup of tea so i didn't buy anything except some gifts for the dear folks back home but my brother actually bought a pair of sneakers unhesitantly so i can only say good luck to him if his money runs out coz every thing here costs as much as a bomb including the meals which cost an average of 7 to 10 dollars but the servings were as big as u can imagine ortherwise if feeling scroogey you can go macs and buy a 100 yen = $1.40 hamburger so after that revigorating meal (frankly speaking the airplane meal wasn't enough to even power my brain) we headed off for what else but more window shopping until late at night when the temperature plunged sharply to around 2 degrees or so but thanks to my fat reserves i could still tahan it and finally at around8 oplus when most of the shops were already closed for teh day we reached our place and i decided to go for a bath and i nearly died while showering.
