Just found an app that will act as an online storage bin for mind droppings. From time to time I'll use this to document our trip.
-------
We are just about to head down to central Tokyo.
--------
We are in Shin-Okubo (KoreaTown) so Midori can find memorabilia for favorite boy band, Tohoshinki. It is just basically like every other Tokyo neighborhood but every shop it seems has something to do with Korea and most of the restaurants sell some sort of Korean food. I'm enjoying the food but could do without the boy band hero worship. So it goes.
------
Tokyo is known as one the most fashionable cities in the world and walking around in the middle of Harajuku or Omotesando certainly reinforces this image. It seems that everybody from the youngest girl to the oldest man is hyper concerned about every thread on their bodies. Fashions swing from the outlandish (girls dressed in frilly dresses with petty coats and French maid style bustiers or eclectic nerdy garb with eyeglasses without any lenses, to upscale yet conservative elegance).
