    We ran into y'all in the capsule shop! It was so surreal, and I told my husband afterward that it would have been helpful to have your videos while we were planning this trip 😂 I was totally shocked to spot Peter's neon glasses in real life! Thanks for being so sweet to this slightly frazzled fan 🫰 can't wait to watch the rest of your Japan adventures!

    I'm so glad you are exploring restaurants. There are soooo many there that we always had endless choices for going out. The international cuisine is crazy delicious too! Next time you are there I hope you try some good italian restaurants. There are pizza places there (Napoli style) that won contests as the best pizza in Italy! Tokyo is a foodie's dream city!

    Oh my blorb, my wife and I are loving these videos. It's like time-traveling for us to see you two doing all the stuff for the first time, and having the EXACT same reactions we did. I'm glad you're letting yourselves explore a bit, and not stick to some rigid travel plan. Japan is truly one of the best non-English speaking countries for an Ordinary Adventure. I haven't been so excited for someone else in such a long time, that I'm legitimately excited whenever I see a notification, because I'm hoping it's another upload from you guys. That said, the wait for Disney Sea is killing us! :D

    I LOVED getting to go to Japan a few years ago and have always wanted to go back. Meiji Jinku was such a beautiful place and there was a wedding happening there when I was there and that was cool to see. The subway everywhere ended up being actually pretty easy to navigate after a few days there and we ate SO MUCH FOOD! From the 7-11's to all the restaurants. Hope you guys found a good ramen shop if you like ramen! All of the vending machines gave me so much life and I loved the sparking apple juice and the hot chocolate out of those!

Also, just for reference, the abundance of towels are used for warm days to wipe sweat or wipe your hands after you washing them in the bathroom. Not a fan of dryers, but I still want to be eco-conscious, so I think it's a good alternative. I carry Tokyo Disney ones whenever I go to Disneyland and DCA.
