tokyo: day 2
playstationed till 3am, shot the breeze till 4, and didn't crash out till 4:30am or so expecting to sleep in after our exhausting day. no such luck. martin seemed to have forgotten that we were running on fumes and dragged us out of bed at 8am to hit the streets.
first stop, big camera (what an original name for a camera store!) in shinjuku where randy, wanted so much to be one of the guys, bought his very own ixus 50 (or ixy 55 as it's known here in japan) and the day quickly went back to hardcore street pounding. after a subway and monorail ride, we finally hit odaiba (tokyo bay area) for the good design presentation 2005 exhibition which turned out to be pretty cool, after we got over getting lost that is. spent the rest of the day wandering around the area before heading back at 11pm.
bloody tired... and it's only been 2 days.
