After spending our first two days in Tokyo preparing for and climbing Mt. Fuji, the six of us took our last full day to explore the city. Matt and I had just been up to Tokyo a few months ago, but it was great seeing it during the summer. We also got to do a few things that we hadn't done on our last visit, including a visit to Tokyo's brand new Sky Tree that just opened. It is the tallest tower in the world and the second tallest structure in the world!
Here are a few of the highlights from around Tokyo:

| Another area of Tokyo we didn't get to see last time - Akihabara Electronics District. An area full of video games, electronics and anime. |
 |
| Shibuya Intersection |
 |
| The girls making our way to the Forever21 in Shibuya |
 |
| It was dark by the time we finished shopping - the Forever21 is 6 floors! |
 |
| Roppongi - you can see the old Tokyo Tower down the street |
 |
| We ate our last Tokyo dinner in Roppongi and had our favorite - fondue! |
Thanks for following our adventures!
