I knew before coming here that I'd be moving around a lot, but I had no idea that my legs would be this sore from doing the only thing they are really required to do: walk. I think we've walked at least four to five hours a day getting from one place to another. My nine hours of sitting at a desk every day have not served me well in preparation for this fact.
We spent the morning at the
Tokyo Game Show (which BTW does not mean that we were ON a Japanese game show — we are nerds and went to a video game conference), which meant even more walking and standing and walking some more. Loved the games, but my sore legs did not love all the walking.
Last night as the sun was going down we headed out to the busy Shinjuku area of Tokyo in the Kabukicho district. Lights, and thousands of people lined the streets to eat, play, and karaoke. Have I told you about the karaoke?! There's a Karaoke-Kon on almost every corner. This is my kind of place.
