Well have been really lucky to have some of Ace's family come visit us from Bonnie land! yay we get to show some peeps around our new city! Firslty we get to go to the cool restaurant which kill bill's one was fashioned after! very cool and soooo yummy! we all tried some soba noodles which are made onsite, and various yakkitori bits, and of course tried to pursuade our visitors that sake is noice! well kirin was at the ready too (luckily)!
next stop roppongi hills and a view from the 60 something floor! wow tokyo is massive. an aquarium is also in this building so popped off there from some weird shows of fish and marine life... some of it totally looks like it from outofspace! and of course interactive fish viewing via a strange kaleidascope thingo? (see pics?!) and for the clubber in us all there were some jelly fish dancing around some lazers going off!
next stop tk tower! very noice view again ... but what got me n ace was they had some braille signs at the top! i get it pc and all these days... just really want to know if it describes the view or tells you how to be safe up there? hahaha on the way down from the tower you get herded through some weird stuff... ripleys, an anime wax museum (so not) and a wax museum (so bad and scary) we said goodnight and made plans for the next night.... the lockup.... a theme restaurant (can you guess what it was?) so it was keith's (ace's cuz) "bday" and he and ace got handcuffed together and led into our cell for dinner! way cool! huge beer tubes, testtubes of cocktails, snap crackle n pop brain drinks and a gross jelly eyeball... after which the lights go out and well the convicts get out and we get scared #@$#less! fabo tho of course a night is not complete without karaoke so off to SHIDAX (ahhhhhhhhhhhh) and another good night had by all! good visit and so nice to show folks around and see some familiar faces! hope to see more loved ones soon! totally ace!!
