So yesterday was a very busy day. I started out by heading to akihabara in search of my dvd player. Finally found one.. You had to go to the top floor of the building, then find the secret stair case on the floor and that took you to the “International” section where you needed a passport to buy stuff. Once there I found the rack of portable dvd players and asked. Which ones are region free.. He responded all of them.. I thought I was in heaven. All the players were ntsc and pal and region free. So I bought an 8 inch portable sony dvd player that was region free.

Now I can watch any regions movies on the go or on my tv. And the sony had much better quality than the other ones.

I then left for musashi kosugi where I met up with cho-san and we travelled to Yokohama. Once there we went to china town. It was kind of boring, had a few cool things and a chinese style family restaurant. We ate there, then went to the park where 60 billion other people were to watch the fireworks. The first spot we picked was ok for sitting. But we couldn’t see anything because of the tree. This sucked because we didn’t know where the fireworks would be or else we wouldn’t have sat there.. About 5 minutes in though we moved a bit and were able to see. Slowly people left through the show so we were no longer cramped and actually were able to lay down and watch the last half of the show.

After the fireworks we went back to china town to look at all the people walking around in kimonos. Yes, japanese girls wear kimonos to festivals like this.

We ended up in a game parlour. I got 1000 yen worth of “Metal” which I quickly doubled in poker and then we played all the other games until we were out. Caught the express train home and I slept 12 hours…

I’ve got pictures of all this but wordpress cross posting is broken right now so I’m avoiding uploading pictures.
