Walking around on Manhattan

The morning started with rain and wind,  but it turned into great weather around noon.

Did some shopping since my luggage still hasn't arrived.  I love this city. It has so many things to offer.

Quiksilver and Levi's is still cheap. Super dry, a Japanese brand that used to be cheap here has gotten a bit expensive compared to prices in UK.

Shopping toys

Went to Pokemon center to buy some toys for my sisters children. It was totally crazy, people everywhere, but what to expect on a Saturday.

Bought some toys there, and then went to another toy store to buy some Bakugan. They are very popular in Sweden. Did also find nano bugs there. Very cool insect robots  :-)

Shopping

Did some shopping yesterday.

Sizes in Japan tend to be smaller than in Europe. I'm usually medium in Europe, but I'm large here. It has even happened that large was a bit too small, and they didn't have anything larger than large in that specific store.
Regarding the stores. You can as usual find more stores for women than for men, and the stores for women are larger than the ones for men, but it's still easy to find nice things to buy.

Btw, looks like they sell lots of jewellery and bling bling for men, and shopping bags for men looks nicer than for women.

I will now have some breakfast, and then head to the Ginza district.

Shibuya distrikt in Tokyo

Walked to the Shibuya district in Tokyo. It's a district with lots of hip people and cool stores.

Visited a t-shirt store where they printed t-shirts on demand. Their catalogue was an iPad app, and you borrowed an iPad in the store. They had 400 different designs, but I couldn't find one that I liked.

Shopping in Kanazawa

We arrived at Kanazawa, but it started to get dark, so we decided to do tourism tomorrow and some shopping today.

I wonder why girls like hello kitty so much.

Got a bit tired of the shopping, so I played with some toys.
