Every Valentines day the females give chocolates to the males they like, which means a male could get more then one box. The chocolate can be bought in the store or homebaked.
Exactly one month later, the males give stuff to the female/s that he likes who sent him a box. If the female that had sent the male didn't get something, her heart was broken.
This is an important thing in Japan. If the Husband didn't give the wife something, she will be very mad, and vise-versa. It is also important for people who have girlfriends and boyfriends.

Harajuka
14/3/10
Today we woke up at around 8am. Today was White Day and Saint Patricks day. White Day will be explained on my other subheading. We went to the station to buy food. At the FamilyMarket, I saw a kid that looked like me, and the simalarities were:
1. Wearing a cap
2. Eating food
3. Wearing glasses
Later on at the train station I saw another kid that looked like me, with no cap but reading a book.
My grandma had stayed back at the hotel do there was only 7 of us. We took multiple trains to reach Harajuku. At Harajuku I found a One Piece Sanji shirt, but my parents wouldn't let me get it.
We walked by lots of places, and came across a place of "Evil Bunyo's" clothes( Bunyo is my sisters toy). We had lunch at a very busy ramen shop. We went to Kiddy Land, where I bought a puzzle frame. We went into the station and the train until we cane into Machida. We bought some donuts, had curry and chicken meat with rice.
We ate the donuts on the long walk home. We sat down and packed our stuff for tomorrow.

The Yakitori place.
Today we slept in. It was resting day, but it didn't really matter to me, because we would be out walking the whole afternoon.
We had lunch at a small ramen place in Machida. We then walked around the shopping centres and the streets for 5 hours. We took a train to a station where we had our dinner, which was Yakitori. We each guessed how many sticks we could eat, and I guessed 147. The total was 100, the same number as my brother.
We walked back home from Machida. My dad and uncle got a DSi LL. We did our stuff and went to sleep at 1am.

The crowded city.
12/3/10
Today we woke up early again- 6am. It was another false alarm. We slept for another 2 hours. We went to Machida and waited for my grandparents. We then went on a train to Ueno, where we looked at fake food. The men that was in charge of the place was so nice he let us have a free one. I got a sushi keychain.
We had tempura for lunch, although I didn't have any tempura. I had rice and hot noodle. We ate some black pepper chips from the restaurent First Kitchen. We took a train to Shibuya.
It was so crowded there. I was stunned by how many people crossed the road at once. The number was way above 300! My grandparents went to 109. My grandma almost fainted when she got up to the 8th floor. It was so full, there was no room for anything.
Meanwhile we were exploring the SEGA place of arcades. I got Bullet Bill from New Super Mario Bros. from a vending machine. We went around the place, and went to Tokyo Hands, where my grandma bought me a puzzle, which was a bounty one from One Piece about Sanji, and a set of barricades, traps, sandbags and walls for my models.
We had dinner at a souvlaki place, and I ate beef for an hour. When we went home my 2 uncles went to a 24 hour Internet Cafe, where you can sleep. Only people over 18 was allowed in. I slept around 1 am.

Tokyo Hands and the big centres
11/3/10
Today we also had English breakfast. We didn't have much though. I had wanted the Japanese breakfast but my grandma said no. We saw my uncle eating alone in the Japanese breakfast restaurent.
We packed our bags and got onto the Bullet Train back to Machida. On the way I played the DS. I played my games, like Naruto and Mario Kart.
When we got off, we went to Tokyo Hands Machida. I got somethings for my models. We also went to a huge store, where I played my game on the Ipod. The game was Sid Mieirs Civilisation Revolution Lite. We walked around the place, and then had dinner at a ramen shop.
We went towards the station, looking at things as we went by. We walked to the Resol Hotel to get our luggage that we had dropped off at our grandparents apartment. We took a train back to Segami-Ono, and walked back to our uncles place. My uncle had gone to his collegue's house for a party and a sleepover. We played Little Big Planet: Future Battlefield ( paintball fight).

Kyoto
9/3/10
Today we slept in, which was the first time we did in Japan. We had a small breakfast, and packed our stuff. We went out of our rooms and went into the main building. When we went outside we gasped. It was snowing!
We took the bus for 2 hours. I played my games. I was sitting next to Kaitlin. She fell asleep on me while listening to her Ipod Nano. I had to wake her up when we reached the station.
We ate some bread and a little bit of curry. I had eaten some of my grandma's curry and a chicken tendori sandwich. We waited for the Bullet Train. We made up this game where if you step over the red box and into the white boxes with both your legs, then your opponent gets a point. You can also get a point if you fo a killing blow on your opponent. You can use hand to hand combat only.
On the Bullet Train to Kyoto I played the DS with my siblings. I played Naruto, and Mario Cart with my siblings. I was hungry so had a little bit of my mothers Bento Box, and my curry bun.
The hotel we were staying in had only 3 beds per room, so my brother and I were sharing a bed. We went shopping at the center next to our hotel. We had some donuts at Mister Doughnuts.
We went back to my parents room and I played New Super Mario Bros. on the DS. We went and had dinner at a place. For dessert we had ice cream and doughnuts at Mister Doughnuts.

The Emperors Palace.
10/3/10
When we woke up we went to the 13th floor to have English Buffet. I had lots of food, including fried rice, fruit, bacon and egg, and juice and tea. It was delicous, although maybe the sausage wasn't that good.
We went to the subway and took multiple trains to the Emperors Palace. The Japanese Emperor came here in the summer over here, which is winter in Australia, so we were allowed to go in the area but not inside the buildings. I was playing Sudoku on my Ipod when we arrived early.
The Emperors Palace was stunning. There were around 80 people in the tour with us! We passed through the Emperors garden. We saw some fishes in the rivers. We also passed by the Ceremonial Praying area.
We had lunch at the Curry House. I was to pride to give up eating my large bowl of curry. We took a walk into a " mini " Chinatown, where my mother got me an owl for my desk. When we were there, it started to rain, so we decided to quickly go to the Sake Brewery.
The Sake brewery was intresting. There wasn't many people around. We went from point to point watching the TV's that showed how they made Sake in the 1928's and modern times. My brother and I took a 3 answer quiz. I won by a point.
We took a long train ride back to the hotel. We ate at our hotel, buying bento boxes and Yakitori stuff before and Mr. Doughnuts donuts. We had a good dinner. My grandpa had ordered 50+ Yakitori sticks, and left some for the ride tommorow.
