Yokohama

Yokohama is always fun, Shige's shop is there (www.yellowblaze.net) and Horiyoshi's tattoo studio and museum is there as well! We had a good time here, but we soon found out that Bo does not do well with heat at all and can't stand just wandering around so he go pretty mad haha. Johnny and I just wanted to scooter around and find shit, but Bo did not at all. We went by Horiyoshi's tattoo museum but it was closed, but no biggy as I had been there twice before and Johnny and Bo didn't really care to go anyway. We didn't go to China town this time cause I have been there before a couple of times and didn't really feel like going again but if you have never been I highly suggest going.

View from just outside of Yellow Blaze:



We were all in a bad mood from not eating all day so we went to the TGIF Friday's right outside of the Yokohama Station. Our waiter was so fucking cool, all he wanted to do was talk with us even though he didn't know english that well. Bo ordered some pasta dish and it was taking a long time to cook so he went into the kitchen and took a picture of the girl cooking it and showed us. He kept taking pics of us with his phone so I got a pic of him with Bo and Johnny and he brought along the girl cooking our food. They were cool as fuck.












Johnny and I loved these random stores that were like 7 stories tall and had everything you could ever imagine in them!


Airsoft anyone?

Just incase you want to buy some costumes while you are playing video games....


Fuck yea!

Day 2 - Shinonome and Shibuya

Day 2- Shinonome/Shibuya

We decided we didn't want to do anything to gnarly as we were still adjusting. So we woke up and got the breakfast buffet downstairs at the Hilton. We then got on the train to head to Shinonome to go to the famous Super Autobacs (I think the Rinkai Line takes you there). We got there before they opened so we walked around and there really wasn't much to see 
so we just headed back to Autobacs to wait around. There is so much cool stuff in Autobacs! They have strut bars, wheels, seats, and all kinds of stuff just in stock. Say you need a strut bar for a 2002 WRX? It's on Aisle 5....We bought a lot of cool magazines and random little nick nacs here. It's definetly worth visiting.


























I LOVE THESE! I live off this stuff everytime I come to Japan.





Shibuya

On our way back from Shinonome we decided we weren't tired yet and so we got off at Shibuya. We walked all over the fucking place with no real reason, we stopped for lunch at an italian reasturant and then headed back to Shinjuku.
