Shibuya

Went to Shibuya last night--it's the "Times Square" of Tokyo. Before that though, me and the other students went to a Japanese banner art museum called Mingeikan a couple stations away from Shibuya proper. That place had some really cool artwork, most of it dating back to the Edo period (Edo is the original name of Tokyo--circa 19th century). Shibuya itself was really fun, a lot of people were there. Some of us went to a couple bars/clubs and also did Karaoke--it's a lot easier to do Karaoke in the Japanese style, since you don't have to sing in front of a whole bar full of people. I even managed to find my way back home afterwards, which I was initially a bit worried about.









A few more pictures are on the way.
