Actually I went to Yoyogi (evening, morning go Kichijoji. Inokashira Park very nice!) also today and fuk I got lost too... suppose to walk to the meiji shrine but doko? and that time my leg in screaming already. I eventually walked from Shibuya to yoyogi wahahaha. Then i walk walk walk... found the cycling route.... wah, crows in yoyogi are so damn a lot and huge.... and i also found 2 person "live" in the park too and all the crows surrounding them waiting for food...

then i finally found the shrine... it's too late.... the shrine is closing but lucky i still able to make a wish and hang there, cool! Then i walk to Harajuku and Omotesando.... all the girls and guys are so damn looking good man... they are so trendy... found a H&M (not sure i spell correct or not) store, damn futuristic design. then i got lost again... lucky I found the JR station and go to Shinjuku. Then i walk again to the Kabukichou... it's already at night.... after that i go back to home....

today really adventurous... got lost many times hahahaha.

kyou ippai shashin wo torimashita! Ureshii na! And i also shopping at Muji, Uniqlo and Tsutaya.. cool. But i didn't enter OIOI, Parco, and Loft... or else my wallet will out blood...

when i back to from Shinjuku, I saw a huge building call Times Square something, is that depato also?

hmm, today reallygain a lot of knowledge about japan trendy district, and how the jp ppl walk when rushing train for work.. it's... scary...

Hopefully i won't. 'Malaysia' GPRS tak boleh pakai, need to get the Japanese one hahaha

matt and jayhan : I think you guys should team up together then cause it'll definitely make it easier to travel around with an extra person.

Maybe you guys can set a time to meet at the Ginza station with a landmark - here's a suggestion : Ginza Station entrance at Sukiyabashi with Sony Building in the background (pic). Set a time to meet and a buffer time to wait until each side gives up (just in case really get lost).

Hope you'll have a better day tomm guys!

Jayhan: Yes, Takashimaya Times Square is also a department store and it's houses the Tokyo IMAX Theater. Also, if you guys are in Shinjuku, you should really go check out the Tokyo Metropolitan Building and go to the 45th floor for the observation place. There are 2 towers - The South tower has better view but closes around5/6pm ... the North Tower opens up until 11pm but doesn't have as much things to see as compared to the South but it makes great sights for the nightline and it's FOC.
NOTE: Quote from japan-guide.com - "Open daily 9:30 to 23:00 (south observatory until 17:30), except December 29-31, January 2-3 and occasional inspection days. Furthermore, the north observatory is closed on the 2nd and 4th Monday and the south observatory on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month, except if a public holiday falls on the closure day, in which case the observatory is closed the following day. Admission is free."

Here's a view of Takashimaya Times Square from the Tokyo Metropolitan Building (North Tower). Taken some time back.
You can roughly spot Tokyo Tower on the right hand side of the picture... LOL


Dug this up from my stash... here's the night view.
