Also Tomoko Izukune, JJ and Emily shared the afternoon with us. There were many laughs and hugs and tears when we said farewell. Today we went to Meiji Shrine and we were lucky enough to see a wedding procession. In the hip town of Harajuku we shopped and checked out the varied sub-cultures of modern Japan. We could not leave without experiencing the crazy themed Kawaii Monster cafe. Everything was so cute and Alex as the star of the show was even cuter! Finally, the day ended with neon lights of Shinjuku and the statue of the ever faithful dog Hachiko.

We then made our way to the Ryogoku area which is famous for sumo wrestlers. We were lucky to run into a few of them outside the train station! We enjoyed a delicious lunch at Hana-no-Mai which specialised in sumo stew (chankonabe) along with various other meals. A past Japanese exchange student from KWSC in 2004, Haruko, also visited us.
