YO-KO-HAMA!

My day in Yokohama was very long. I think I walked for about seven hours in total.

There isn't much to the city itself. It is generic Japan in a port setting.

I get lost constantly here. Streets don't have names, its the areas in between them that do. Everything also looks remarkably similar. The typical Japanese city is short on space, this means that they are all built up high, with eclectics style and architecture. This would you imagine make then easier to navigate. However when many streets aren't even on the map and there is no continuity in the building style everything merges into one big city.

I spend a good two hours of Yokohama totally lost.

I visited Yokohama's bustling Chinatown for some lunch. I politely refused a knife and fork and dug in with some chopsticks. The food was a sweet soup, Rice, Chicken in sauce, pickled chilli and some other stuff that I forget. Frankly I was more glad of the free water and air conditioning. I was doing really well with the chopsticks until i got to smug, failed to concentrate and shot a piece of pepper about six miles across the restaurant.Nobody notices. No gods were defiles and respect was preserved.

I discovered a Hello Kitty catalogue and also a lot of Moomin merch. Maybe the moomins will haunt me forever now.

Also I went to a rubbish traditional Doll Museam and got sunburnt.

My plans for the evening however would be a little more unique.
