Tokyo Adventure Day Nine: Harajuku Maiko Dress-up

My friend Cheeb and I went to the land of Tokyo for two weeks of awesomeness.

Nineth Day: First off, a view of the morning window scenary (City haze had disbursed, leaving cool mountain views) then some Japanese television, featuring a TAMANDUA. But of course, today was about the main event of HARAJUKU GEISHA DRESS-UP! A totally amazing experience from the people at Katsura Studios ( http://www.henshin-maiko.com/en_index.html ), we are actually dressed like Maikos due to the more make-up and outfit variation. I recommend it to all who visit Tokyo! With an all you can eat pizza/pasta hip-hop restaurant for lunch :D

***Thanks for watching***

The hip-hop restaurant? It's easy enough to find, as it's close to the lower end of Takeshita Street (Main fashion street in Harajuku). Although, you do need to go down into a basement of another shop ^___^ On the stairs you can see loads of signed photos of famous rappers!

[tanya9nithreus]

@ShiverZ66 Signed Photos of famous rappers??? wow! =D so that place is probably something you go look at when you're at harajuku right?? xP cool! i'll definitely find it i think haha =). and now i wanna go even more =P. thanks for explaining ;D. btw what kind of food do they have? =)
