So tired

Last Friday,I asked my best friend to go out for some drinks.

We had a drink in business district,Marunochi.The building we went named "Shin-Marunouchi building" is in front of the Tokyo station.

About Marunouchi:Detail , Marunouchi.com

On Fridays, it is fun to hang out on the 7th floor of this building. 

There, you can see some bars, restaurants and a wide terrace where you can enjoy staying.

There are plenty of tables and chairs available everywhere so you can have a drink and eat some foods wherever you like.

This floor system is designed for customers who'd like to choose where to buy their foods and drinks.

So it's possible that you can drink a Japanese rice wine  and eat an Italian food at the same time.(if you want to)

The title, So Tired, is actually the restaurant's name.At first, it may sound negative, right?

It must be very funny to imagine when a staff picks up a phone and says, "Hello, this is SO TIRED"

SO TIRED

If you have the chance to come and visit the place,I recommend you to have a drink at the terrace to see the beautiful flashing lights from the buildings outside.
When I had a drink in the terrace, I was thinking that a lot of people are still working because of the lights coming from the building while I enjoy my drink. 


Until next time! See you again!

Last Friday in Harajuku

I miss a city after spending time in a country side. Last Friday I went out to young town, Harajuku. This town is famous for cosplay but there are also nice restaurants for adults. So, both children and adults can enjoy their visit. I didn't see cosplay girls on the day. Probably they have to go to school on weekdays. I'm not sure about that, though:p

The pictures below were taken in front of the Laforet HARAJUKU. Many shops like Top shop and SeeByChloé have all the things that girls love in their stores.

It's fun just to watch people around there. Some of them, even if they're not cosplayers, have a very unique fashion sense. Men wear skirts and make up and it's not uncommon in this town. Everyone looks as if they enjoy fashion and they wear clothes as they please.

By the way,I'm still into Mexican food.I reserved a table at : here
(Please be careful when you click the above link as it plays a background music. I was really surprised when music started to play suddenly because my headphone was also at full blast at that time).

Going back to the restaurant,this is entrance.

And the tables were downstairs. I was excited because it was like a cave.
While we were drinking, the restaurant band played Mexican music in front of us.
Another customer requested them to play "We Will Rock You" by Queen. I thought it was an inappropriate choice. But the band didn't refuse it. They were professional! At that point, I felt the that Queen's song was like a Mexican song.

Actually I was full just to eat few tortillas as an appetizer I ordered. Recently I'm dieting and I just drink green smoothie as a dinner and my stomach is becoming smaller before I know! I'm usually happy when I know it, but I felt frustrated I couldn't eat a lot on the day><

After having a diner, we walked around the town.

At last we had some drinks again in a wine bar on the street of Aoyama.
I ordered dessert with fresh cheese and strawberry. This goes with kir:)
I thought this was like smoothie and it was okay even though it was already around 11pm.

Then on the way to the metro station, I found a cafe.
I wanted to have a coffee at last of the day. And this is a cafe I really wanted to come.Why are there charm cafes around this area?

Next time I'll go there in a day time!

See you and have a nice weekend!

Hiking in Kamikochi

It's  a sunny week here in Tokyo even though the weather forecast reported that rainy season has already began.Last weekend,I went to Kamikochi with my family.This is one of my favorite places in my country.It was majestic.

Detail is here:Kamikochi

I've been here many times so far.I went there by car this time,it took me 5 hours to travel from my place,Tokyo.

My parents picked me up at 4 am.I love spending my time in a car eating my mother's best packed meal ever prepared like fried chicken and rice bowls:))She actually got up at 2 am just to prepare our meal.haha..While she started cooking,I went to bed.

Going back to the trip,we arrived at the bus stop heading to Kamikochi.We couldn't enter the vicinity with the use of our car because it was not allowed.This is to protect nature from harmful gas exhaustion.

Upon Arriving at Kamikochi bus terminal,walking along the Azusa river for few minutes and then we reached the famous point,kappa-bashi bridge.
For few details,please see the link below:

**Kamikochi map**

Kamikochi is a popular place surrounded by mountains and people come to enjoy hiking and climbing in this area.

Some people bring their backpacks and stay in the mountain overnight.Camping is not only in the mountains,but we also enjoy it near the Azusa river.

I stayed a hotel near the kappa-bashi bridge.

First day,we walked to Myojin-pond from the bridge along the river.It was a very calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Back to the kappa-bashi bridge and after check in a hotel,we enjoyed coffee time with delicious cake:)))

My family eat the same cheese cake every time at Gosenjaku hotel.I choose mascarpone and strawberry mousse:)))

By the way,there are many kappa around here.I've never seen them of course,because they are unidentified creature.

I've never seen anything like this...

Next early morning,I walked along the river again.The air was so fresh.

And I ate nice Japanese breakfast after walking.After check out the hotel,we walked to Taisho-pond.

At last I found lovely flowers like an illustration.

I spent very relaxed time there.Kamikochi is not close to Tokyo though,it would certainly be worth it.But anyone can't go into there during winter,so you should remember this:)

See you until next!
