7th day ~ A chaotic day ended in Ebisu

This was one of the days I didn't plan that it ended in THIS but nevertheless it was an interesting day filled with encounters, fun, beer, hair and lots of more *lol*

Kirschu wanted to make extensions during her stay and one of her US friends made very spontanious an appointment for that Wednesday so Aya-chan, Kirschu and I got up very early. I wanted to accompany her 'cause I was thinking about having extensions, too.

So we met up with the twins Meghan and Tara at Hachiko around 10 o'clock.
And, of course, it was fucking hot even it was early in the morning.

So we went to that hair salon I found at egg magazine a few days before. It was just 10 minutes walk from the station.

When I was there I really wanted to have extensions, too but I didn't want to have blonde ones so one of the twins, Aya-chan and I went first to a hair dresser who dyed my hair light brown.
I really can recommend Japanese hair dresser, you feel like a princess and you get a massage *O*

So that was my new hair colour. Please ignore my messy look, my make up which was gone far far away *lol* and the rest of my derp face, ha ha...
I was thinking about brown hair for a really long time but I was too scared 'cause I had blonde hair since around 15 years so it was a huuuge step for me.

After dying my hair we met again Kirschu and the other twin. Kirschu's extensions were already finished.
I was surprised that it just took around 45 minutes and she absolutely looked adorable! Sooo cute!

We were hungry after that hair thing so we decided to have lunch together somewhere in Shibuya. It was a nice restaurant but the meal wasn't my cup of tea.
After lunch we strolled a little bit through the area 'cause the guys of the hair salon were full at that moment and told us to come back in one hour.
We also made some Purikura.

That are the only ones I have with Aya-chan this time Q___Q Sorry for the bad quality but I'm not able to make better pics of them atm 'cause I'm not at home when it's daylight outside.

The twins left in the afternoon, also Kirschu wanted to explore the area so I was only with Aya-chan at the hair salon. But a big surprise: her husband, Kuni, was in Tokyo for business and visited us there. I was very excited to meet him for the first time but he was sooo kind and I was happy to meet him.
Unfortunately I forgot my cam that day so I only have the pics that Kirschu took >.<

Around 7 we picked up Kirschu at Hachiko. Aya-chan wanted to take her husband to Tokyo Station and Kirschu and I wanted to refresh us at the hotel and change clothes but then...a SMS from Kaoru-chan arrived...we should go to Ebisu Station NOW 'cause Oli, the guy we went with to Odaiba, was waiting there.
We wanted to go drinking that night and Kaoru-chan made the appointment so...no shower, no fresh clothes, no make up... Q____Q
After some trouble at Ebisu Station we finally found Oli and also Aya-chan arrived. So together we went to Yokocho.
I really love the Yokocho. It has so many charme and I decided to come back when I visited it the first time in April. Nothing has changed.

Oli and I
We had to make our food by ourselves...I don't like that very much 'cause before everything is ready for eating I'm starving...so I drunk a lot of beer...it was also a good dinner, ha ha

Kirschu and Kaoru-chan
Kaoru-chan also arrived but she was late 'cause of her work. I was glad to see her once more before I had to leave Japan.

That cutie was one of our waiters. Kirschu had a little crush on him and I totally understood, why. Unfortunately too young for me, ha ha
Look at the background *lol*

And our other waiter. He was sooo funny. We found out that he is from Osaka. I really love Osaka people.

our little group that evening
my cute Aya-chan
We had a lot of fun this evening and I really can recommend the Yokocho in Ebisu if you want to go for a drink and eat something in the evening with friends 'cause it's lively, all people there are very nice and you can get in contact there easy with the people.

Ah, and I asked Kaoru-chan to have a look at Keigo's bar if he's still working there and really, he was! I saw that cutie first time in April but...I didn't want to say 'hello' to him so I told Kaoru-chan and Aya-chan to take a picture of him <3
But...maybe next time I will have more courage, ha ha...

So...our day ended with a bill over 20 beer and we took a taxi to our hotel. Next day was our last day in Tokyo.

6th day ~ Ikebukuro and Shibuya

On Tuesday Kirschu and I decided to visit Ikebukuro 'cause I wanted to show her Sunshine Ikebukuro and also we wanted to take a look there at Donki Shop.

After that we wanted to go to Shibuya again and in the evening my friend Aya-chan from Sendai was arriving for spending the last days with me.
Even the weather wasn't that sunny like last days and it rained sometimes, it was still hot and humid x___X



I dressed up completely in Liz Lisa. I don't know why but in summer I really LOVE to wear Liz Lisa, in winter I prefer other brands and not that cute stuff...I guess I'm strange, ha ha...

Of course first we had breakfast at Tully's and I was looking forward to something sweet this time so I ordered delicious French Toast with my good old Honey Milk Latte.
Btw, that's the last picture of me with blonde hair X3

In Ikebukuro I saw a lot of cute things like shoes or clothes or wallets but finally I bought nothing 'cause I wasn't able to decide WHAT *sigh*...
There were sooo many cute Liz Lisa wallets reduced and I was thinking about to buy some for selling in Germany *lol*

At Donki Shop I found some hair chalk what I bought for Lau. Kirschu also bought some stuff like lashes, a bag, loose socks etc.
After that we went again to Shibuya.

This is really my absolutely favourite place: Hachiko near Shibuya Station. It's a lively meeting point, it's always interesting just to sit there or smoke a cigarette and sometimes you can make nice contacts there.

We went to Tower Records first. I wanted to buy the new album of Golden Bomber 'The Past Masters, Vol. 1' but I wasn't sure if Aya-chan already bought for me so I just looked around the J-Music racks.

I left Shibuya some earlier than Kirschu. She took a picture of this cute Gachapin socks *O* I decided to buy on the last day but... I never did Q___Q

In the evening Aya-chan arrived and we went to our Udon shop near my hotel. I was so happy to meet her again and we changed news and talked about everything.
She stayed until my departure with me and we shared a bed, like always, ha ha...

Btw, I forgot to show my gets what I bought on Saturday at Shibuya 1o9.

A cute white one piece which was on sale at Liz Lisa. I really like it to wear even some guys in Germany were asking me, if I'm going to a wedding *lol*

And also at Liz Lisa I bought a cute wallet even it was very expensive. But I wanted to have such a wallet for a long time and I haven't bought a lot that time so I thought: YESSS! I want it now! xD


But the best thing I got from Aya-chan that day: the DVD of 『死ガ二人ヲワカツマデ・・・』 ~ 「色ノナイ青」 , the movie with Kyan Yutaka... I was soooo happy...

5th day ~ Odaiba ... or: No BEER, no life xD

Our Monday started in the morning with a breakfast, like always, at Tully's Café. Our plan was to visit Odaiba 'cause it was Kirschu's first time in Japan and she wanted to go there.
For me it was okay, Odaiba for me means relaxing and nice beach feeling.

I wore nothing special, just my light jumper from Garula. You know, in August the heat is like hell in Tokyo and the humid so bad... it would be better to wear nothing ha ha...

At Tully's we were very surprised that suddenly a German guy talked to us what we are doing in Tokyo so we chatted for a while with him. His name was Oli, around 40 years old and living near Hamamatsu-cho station. And he said spontanious that he wanted to join our Odaiba trip.

When we arrived we went to a supermarket first and bought...BEER! It was around noon and I guess I have never drunk a beer that early, ha ha...
But with that beautiful view to the beach it was nice to chat and drink.

Rainbow Bridge
me with Oli
After that we had a nice walk down the beach until we saw a nice beach bar and guess what? YESSS, we had another break there with beer xD

Thank God that Japanese beer is so light, with German beer and 30°C I would be done after the second one.

beautiful blossoms
Fuji TV
Statue of Liberty
Kirschu made a lot of pics. I guess she liked Odaiba, too. It's a nice mixture between modern and nature even that island is factitious.

Me in front of Diver City Tokyo Plaza. It was the first time for me that I had a look at big Gundam there so I had to take a picture.

To cool down and for lunch we went to Aqua City Center nearby Fuji TV. That center is a big mall with various stores like clothes [but most western fashion], but also there's a Disney Store and or Toys R us inside, a cinema complex and a food court.

For lunch we had curry rice with fried fish and -surprise!- another beer *LOL*. Then we continued our walk through Aqua City and found...GACHAPIN!

They sold some stuff and I can't resist, so I bought a blanket, a plush and some key chains. I'm addicted to that green, cute dinosaur.

After a last cigarette we said goodbye to Oli 'cause he had to leave for some buisness. But we wanted to meet again for drinking.

Kirschu and I continued our discovery tour by our own and went to Palette Town, another large shopping and entertaining complex.

famous Ferris Wheel
It was also the first time I visited Venus Fort and it was very impressive for me. But the shops there weren't that interesting so we bought nothing there.

harbour
After that long day our feet were burning so we decided to leave Daiba around 6 to go back to Hamamatsu-cho.

On the way back to our hotel we had a brief stop at the good, old Pokémon Center. Kirschu bought some merchandise there but I really was shocked! I didn't know half of the Pokémon there anymore even I really liked it some years ago. For me, the charme of Pokémon is gone! That's really sad.

beetle-chan
In the late evening we were loughing so hard 'cause we had a BIG beetle or something like that in our room and I wasn't able to sleep when I knew that 'he' was behind our bed so I tried to lure him with some bread and it really works!!! So I could kill him and we had a relaxing night and slept well.
