Today we went into Akihabara again to satisfy our nerd cravings once more. It rained all day, but it was still as fun as it was yesterday. Actually it was probably more fun, as we were taking our time more and we decided to visit one of the major attractions of Akihabara: the Maid Café. These are cafes where the girls who serve you dress up as maids and act ridiculously cute for an hour. It was very fun, and we all had magical “delicious” spells cast on each of our meals before we ate and got a photo with our favourite maid. Just wish we had been allowed to film it all! After that we shopped around for a little bit more and went back home for a rest.
We decided to go back in to Akihabara again later that night for dinner. We had passed an English theme pub every time we went, so we decided we should finally go in and check it out. We each ordered a meal there, but the size of everyone’s but mine was more Japanese than English, and everyone except me was still starving at the end of it. So after we left the pub we went into a massive complex nearby that was full of restaurants and had a more filling Japanese meal.
Rainy japanese day
The cars are all small and square, and they're all really clean for some reason. In fact everything seems to be slightly smaller and tightly packed
Hundreds of "gachapon" machines, where you put the money in and get an egg with a toy in it. I had a few favourites, but a highlight was a blue whale that looked like it was vomiting.

Leigh and the two Davids are in there somewhere
I really like this street that we pass on the way to the train station
Enjoying a beverage. There is a vending machine at LEAST every second intersection, each with more wacky drink contents than the last.
True love <3

Wow Akihabara really does look awesome! It's very difficult to spell though ;). I can see why David Z bought so much!
