So coincidence that yesterday, we took Metro trains for our whole day transport and today, all will be JR trains via Yamanote line. First stop will be Akihabara. Our intention is to look for headphones/earphones + any IT gadgets. We went to one of the biggest store, Yodobashi Akiba. In fact, we went to this store on our previous trip and like the varieties of things they are selling. No need to hop around shop to shop. Just concentrate in this store and it is enough. I bought a 16GB USB stick, 2 headphones and 3 earphones. Very satisfied. It was later in the day that I got to know that the earphones I bought were so much cheaper. The same item selling at another store in Harujuku is almost 70% more expensive. Lucky uh.
It was around 2.00pm when we arrived at Harujuku. We had our lunch before we started our shopping. Today we had Ramen. Pork soup base which is my favourite. Yummy yummy. First stop was Agnes B boutique and with lack of resistence, I bought one bag! Their service is excellent. They offered to wrap the paperbag with plastic as it was getting dark and will rain any time. The plastic will prevent the paperbag to get wet. After that, we went to Kiddyland and I bought some souvenirs. As it was getting late, we went to UT store for a short while and that short while was enough time for me to buy one T-shirt. Ha ha...
Travelled to Shinjuku and zoomed in to Isetan which is near the station. Tulip would like to buy one more Agnes B bag and hope she could get it there. However, the bag she was looking for was out of stock. She was disappointed but no choice. We went to Kinokuniya. 小珠 bought 2 Japanese grammar dictionary. Tulip bought elementary Japanese language book. I bought another magazine after some influence from 小珠. Hee hee...
Again, by the time we returned to Ikebukuro, it was already almost 11pm. We went back to the same restaurant for dinner as it was late and not many restaurants are open. There are some other restaurants that we can go but we still cannot resist the food at 和民. We intended to order different dishes from yesterday but ended up just changed 2 of the dishes and balance remain unchanged. Luck was not good again. We did not get to eat the honeydew. Now is the honeydew season and real disappointed that we did not manage to taste the sweetness and juiciness of this fruit.
By the time we back in hotel, we laid flat. Whole body so tired again after long walks. We really fully utlilised the time we had there.
Not to forget... Happy 44th Birthday to Singapore.
