• Cat street and Parco wanders

    February 21 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    We caught the train from Shimokitazawa up to Harajuku to go and check out a great view rec from our friend Erin, and it was so lovely! Michael got some killer snaps of the view and where we were about to wander down. After this, we walked down Cat Street, which is kind of near Harajuku but also has a lot of modern shops and designer stuff. It's very architecturally mixed. Like it wasn't anything special... Except for the Resident Evil watch Collab that Michael nearly fried his brain over because it's one of his favourite characters, so that made it worth the while!

    We then went into Parco in Shibuya to visit a bunch of stores Michael wanted to see, such as the Nintendo store and the CapCom store, and the Pokémon Centre for me to try and find something of Serena (the main character out of my fanfic series I've been writing). Michael was rapt, buying two donkey Kong hoodies, a banana pencil case, and some other various bits and bobs. I completely lucked in and the Pokémon Centre had some vinyl stickers of my girl Serena, so I grabbed a big one and two small versions so I can have one at work, one stuck to my car, and one framed on my art wall at home.
