Shagger by the day

Off we went to Odaiba, somewhere by the coast of tokyo, where a sandy beach resides with many birds and seagulls as its inhabitants. Nothing much to write about that place, except that it was damn windy! To say that i was on several occasions swept off my feet thanks to the torrents of icy cold gusts was not an exaggeration. Girls with short skirts must had wished they had worn something else today, but thankfully i didn't see anything. Really. It was chaotic - One moment it was still and fine, the next everyone was shrieking and struggling to step forward. We had to take refuge in the NHK broadcasting company building for quite a while. At least there were some exhibitions there and we were allowed to tour round the building. However, nothing could be worse than taking refuge from ridiculously strong wind in a building full of energized kids. They were everywhere, making the place a hell of some sort. I could only stuff my hands in my pockets, shorten my neck into my collar, and try to get as much heat as possible, in dismay.

The rest of the day was eventful to say the least. Scarcely populated, at least when compared to tokyo, the only bright spark of the trip to Odaiba was seeing the Rainbow bridge and the gargantuan ferris wheel - both trademarks of the Odaiba area. Somehow i really don't understand why and how the japanese must build such huge pieces of engineering feats. It seems they must showcase their engineering abilities to the world. Some ego they have eh.

After that another expensive trip back by train to ikebukuro costing me $7, and that is only one-way. Sigh this is really sapping my reserves. It also seems weird that everyday at around 5 pm i would be utterly shag to the max. The same time as the sky turns dark. I must be some duracell bunny of some sort.

Hokkaido tomorrow morning at 8 plus, via a 6 hour bullet train ride. No more net i think.

SHAG. Miss my baby very much sob.
