Get Yo FREEEAAAKKKK ON!

Its on!!! wHAT Better way to reward yourself after tidying a room for one day than to go to an amusement park and get freaked out? Whaaaaahoooo!! Nami and I decided that today was go crazy day. After spending a few hours playing games in shinjuku (nami had a doctors appointment) We then ate "freshness burgers" and proceeded to Suidoubashi (home of tokyo dome). Little did i realise that there were roller coasters there! YAHOOO!!! now thats what i:m talking about. I have always thought that anything man made must break down, so with any ride with a clean track record meant there was a chance it could break down on me! (doesnt help after watching final destination 3 either) hehe. SO i was amped. As we arrived at Tokyo dome we saw....

A 80 metre high roller coaster, giant ferris wheel and a tower (tho nothing compared to the 35 story drop that my brother let me experience).... Awesome sight. After many experiences of people backing out of rides, i made Nami promise that if i went on a ride she would too... silly enough she agreed. =P

The roller coaster was pretty long, no loops but enough drops to leave your stomach in every other place but your tummy. It also passed thru this cool little hole, although when ur on the ride ur too scared to appriciate it.

<--- this is the parachute ride. It looks like fun, but when it takes u up 30 stories while u stand (no safety gear what so ever) you start to get a little freaked at the top. However Nami enjoyed the view. For some strange reason her knowing that we were going to be let down slowly calmed her, it damn near freaked the crap out of me, knowing i was going to drop from that height. hmmm prehaps a sign of reactions in relations to the different ways girls view break ups compared to boys ne.!
We went on all the rides, from getting totally drenched in a water ride. To being at the front of a roller coaster thing that shoots you straight up in the air. We also did a few little silly rides, like mini coasters, haunted house, kids nite rides, motion masters etc

We ended the day out in the ferris wheel. It was souped up. Had music playing, soft chairs and a view to die for. This was my first time going on one of these wheels and you know how everyone tells you all these romantic things that happen on them.... Well nothing happened for me... We ended up getting carried away with taking photos, that nothing speical happened... Stink!~

Upon leaving we came accross these really nicely lit trees, although they look fake, they`re actually real and there was a suprizingly a huge amount of space given that its in TOKYO!.

This is of some Arty thing that someone made, i thought it was cool, although the picture doesnt quite capture the amazing lights it does give you some idea.

After that, we rode back to Asagaya where we ate Tempura and rice. I was expecting udon (noodles) but seeing as its summer here, the menu changed. It was alright although the batter was a little too oily, nami felt a little unwell afterwards. Demo nonetheless it was cheap food and i was sweet. hehe..

Aiite enough photos i`ll leave u alone for a bit ( i think the cameras getting tired). So until tmr, peace out yall. X
