Cosplay Kids at Harajuku

We went to Harajuku on Sunday to see the cosplay kids and the girls dressed up as goths and lolitas. Our experience began on the subway headed to Harajuku station where we shared a subway car with kids already dressed in their costumes. One kid wore nothing but a red speedo with a golden spigot at his crotch.

At Harajuku, the cosplayers posed for us. Unfortunately, it rained that day so there weren't a lot of cosplay performances. The rockabilly performers at nearby Yoyogi Park were also rained out. We had a pleasant afternoon exploring the shops in the area as well as the nearby Meiji Shrine. Jeff especially loved the 100 yen store (he loves 99c stores in the US and I frequently have to rein him in from buying junk). We also had a great vegetarian lunch at Mominoki House.
