Tokyo yo!

So we are here. We finally made it after about 20 hours in transit. We were so tired last night that we checked in to our hostel and then just showered and ate and went to bed by 730. We wandered around a bit looking for a place to eat and came across this totally awesome little noodle soup place where you order and then stand at the bar and slurp your noodles. They didn't speak any english but we managed to order by pointing and gesturing and saying the few words we know in Japanese. Soba! Tempura! yeah.....

Today we have big plans to explore a bunch. We're really excited! I do not have words to express how incredibly massive Tokyo is. We took the train from the airport for an hour and a half and still haven't even made it to the heart of the city yet! It's absolutely insane!

But we must begin our day. Miss you all already!
