Can it be true?? It's Japan Part 2!

Alright loyal fans! After a hiatus, we're back! Here's the second part to our awesome trip to Japan. Be prepared cuz this is a long one! Grab some popcorn or even better, some salamanders on a stick...

Shibuya Intersection - The busiest in the world!

  
Can you find the Jennifer in the picture?


Loft - Awesome mega store filled with the coolest, cutest, hippest stuff. It's like Japan's Ikea.



One of the many, busy alleyways in Shibuya

Golden Gai - a time capsule in ultra modern Tokyo...

... where you can roam the tiny alleyways to find authentic food...

... like this! - pig head meat

and pig testicles!
Let's see how John likes them. "Delicious!"

"Not bad!"
For the second course we went with salamanders on a stick. Simply divine!

Nom

Did you really think that we'd pass up a trip to the J-Town D-Land??


Why eat overpriced food when you can picnic in the middle of the park on cute mats?

The wild, wild...east?

Elton John would be proud of this tiny dancer

It's a small world!


Cute and delish peanut butter sandwich

We think that this is supposed to be a pic of the subway workers as that's where we found it, but taken outta context  we'd have to say a Nazi rolly polly




Want sumo(re)? Let's go to Ryogoku!

I'll cut a bitch!

I just ripped a fattie.

His eyes are up there, dirty birds!

Right before their battle. Jk!

No joke, it's called the golden turd or kin no unchi in Japanese

Rice balls on a stick with soy sauce glaze. Wow pow!

traditional wares market

On the way to Odaiba, an artificial island comparable to a family friendly Vegas

One of the world's biggest Ferris wheel... and we had to go on it

But first we had to check out another monumental poo. But don't you think it kinda makes the place a lil 'dumpy'?

Deck's, a boardwalk, beach style department store with all the shopping, toys, games, food, museums and amusement park fun you could ever want

As Jennifer demonstrates here

And here

Is the captain an octopus ball with a squid for a wench?

Trick art museum! The following pics are meant to deceive your eyes. Look carefully...



Ok, so we lied. We actually went to Asia to complete our ninja training.



Mirror, mirror on the wall

Yikes!

Now your in Dracula's wine glass? How do you keep getting into these situations?

Rainbow bridge

One of our favorite things about Tokyo is that many people still wear traditional clothes


Corn potage anyone?

Meowvolous!

What's even cooler is that this isn't the only state of lib in Japan

From atop that giant Ferris wheel
