While Chris & Jonathan worked Wednesday morning, Kendra & I got our stuff together along with a picnic lunch for the train. Here we are walking to the train station. We took the bullet train 3 hours north to Tokyo. If we had taken the "normal" train, it would have lengthened the trip to about 10 hours with the stops, etc. We checked into the hotel, freshened up & headed to Starbuck's to watch the throngs of people at Shibuya intersection. The picture of C&K is from the 2nd story window of Starbuck's with all the people in the background. There are roughly 19 million that live in Tokyo. 
The picture of Jonathan is on the subway. I was trying to give a better view of just how crowded it is. This isn't even during rush hour - this is mid-afternoon! One of our goals was to find "Little Bo Peep" before dinner. We found her! Actually, we found several! Apparently, there is a sub-culture that J&K have affectionately nick-named "Little Bo Peeps" as they dress up like one. Here is called Lolita style of dressing. We actually came across a shop that sold the outfits. We tried to take pictures of me & K with them but were told no photos. Probably a good thing.
