October & Sky Tree

東京スカイツリー

Dressed up for a 
Halloween-y presentation.

An entire month in Japan, already! Ya mero se acaba Octubre! :( If you didn't know it's the most wonderful time of the year. Me encanta el 秋. Im hoping to celebrate Halloween in Shibuya.. He oido que se pone un poco loco. Pues en un mes he aprendido bastante! I learned that the tallest tower in the world is located in Tokyo and the second tallest structure in the world is that same tower. I was baffled when I saw it and I still am! Cuando suba voy ha estar tan emocionada! I already know it.

What Is This?

Back To The Future Boat.

This cruise ship looks soo cool! It's so futuristic. It takes you on a 360 cruise. I personally have not be on it yet but I would love to go. There are so many museums and shops here. Nunca tienes un dia aburrido, solo si te pones de ese humor.  I go to go to the Ryūji Fujieda art show! I didn't know this, but he was the illustrator that drew Kabajin, the little hippo mascot for LEX/Hippo. The art was titled What Is This? The title had an effect on the art, strangely. Instead of just looking at I looked into. The picture on the left slightly resembles Hello Kitty with a raincoat and an umbrella. A couple of things in this picture are interesting, she doesn't have matching shoes, there isn't any rain, and it looks like she's running. The great thing about art is that it can be analyzed or just looked at. How it is interpreted depends on you. 

Umbrella/Paragua/傘 (Kasa)/Parapluie

Shibuya Crossing

Before Japan I had never used an umbrella. Y ahora soy una experta. No salgo de la Casa sin una Kasa. Durante un festeval de la ciudad de Kawagoe estaba lloviendo mucho. Y todos estabamos afuera con paraguas. En Ontario el evento hubiera estado cancelado. La foto de abajo es en Shibuya Crossing. Se dice que es la interseccion makes ocupada en el mundo. Con mas de 1,000 personas a una vez crusando. En frente esta la tienda 109, con 9 pisos de tiendas de ropa para muchachas. A Shopping girls dream, but not my cup of tea. On the left of this store is the Adidas store with 3 floors and the bottom one being all Adidas Original. Love it

Matcha Everything, 抹茶

Matcha Ice Cream on a Cone

Matcha or Green Tea is put into many different things. Mochi, which I haven't tried yet, it's a rice ball with ice cream in the middle. I believe, a Japanese desert.

Ice Cream, there are different levels of matcha concentration with ice cream. Level 1 being the lowest and level 6 being the strongest. I went hard and tried level 6 with matcha powder on top. It was different. Once I ate all the powder the ice cream was very good and not so bitter.

Tea, tea is huge here and green tea is like water to me! They love it. They have green tea with just about every meal. 

Pastries, Tarts, Matcha sweets! They have the basics strawberry, chocolate, plain, but they always have a green option for it. I miss coffee everything!

Amazing New Friends

Hippo Family Club

I have met about hundreds of people in the past 5 weeks. From ages of 0 to 85, a wide range. Meeting new people is great until you have to leave and you don't get to hang out with them. At Hippo Family Clubs they are usually after work or on the weekends. They last about 2 hours and it is a range of different SADA, metakatsus, and games. All in different languages like Swahili, French, Chinese, Korean, English, Spanish, Japanese, even sign languages.
