Alright guys it’s me, Fisher. I had an amazing time at the Meiji Shrine, where I bought myself a good luck charm for getting good grades. The wedding we saw was super pretty, but I did feel kind of bad because there was a bunch of tourists taking pictures of this pretty important and private event. After that we went into the busy streets of Harajuku. We got crazy rainbow cotton candy bigger than our heads. Along with that I got these super wacky cyclops glasses and a delicious kebab bowl. We wandered around awhile after that waiting for our next appointment and met two French reporters who asked to take our pictures, so I guess we are going to be in some sort of French media which is pretty awesome. We then listened to a diplomat from the American Center of Japan speak about his job which turned out to be very interesting. He told us about the intensive application process and how employees are assigned countries to work in. Lastly we went into Shibuya where the girls went to dinner with the HPA Ohana us guys ate at a restaurant called Gustos where I got some really tasty katsu chicken. While waiting for the girls to finish we crossed the famous crosswalk where thousands of people fill the street at once as soon as the light turns red for the cars. It was an incredible day, but honestly so is every other one here. I can’t wait for the rest!
