Got your attention? just kidding hehe.

The most anticipate month is almost here, festival are coming up and hobby events just around the corner (next week actually). So this is really my last free weekend before I will be busy sorting photos and uploading it.

So I meet up with a fellow comrade Tokyo Hunter (nice guy!) today for a little shopping at Akihabara.


Fast forward until we’re done shopping, this is what I got:

Akihabara Loots

After all the walking and shopping, we went to Tokyo station for a drink. It’s so hot right now that you will be dehydrated in a couple of hours.

These are some photos I took on the new 1st Avenue Tokyo Station (part of it..)
