Chikalei: Adventures in my most favourite place in the whole world JAPAN!!!

Ive always wanted to go Japan since I was a wee kitty and in 2010 I finally arrived.

One of the first places I went was KIDDYLAND!!  They sell my cute and cuddly friend Hello Kitty. Situated on the top floor was Hello Kitty galore, I didn’t know where to start. Hello Kitty comes in many forms, everything from socks to water. I wanted EVERYTHING!!
 
Hello Kitty Heaven!!!
  
Kitty Water ( I wonder how it's made..)
  


Yummy!!

 FOOD!! FOOD!! FOOD!!  You will never go hungry in Japan. There are vending machines, convenience stores and restaurants everywhere you go. One of the restaurants I had to taste before I left was McDonalds! I had a chicken burger with fries and Grape Fanta. My first impression was this burger looks and smells a lot better than the English version. It was the best chicken burger I ever tasted in my life. I haven’t had a chicken burger since.

Damn Good!!!!

But McDonalds does not compare to traditional Japanese food.
One of my favourite dishes was Okonomiyaki which is a savoury pancake, which contains any meats or vegetables you desire. I had Monjayaki it’s the same as Okonomiyaki but the consistency of the batter is runnier, so you have to eat it straight off the grill in front of you using a metal spatula. I burnt my tongue and hands a few times but it was worth it.

SHIBUYA 109!!!! Is one of my favourite places to shop. It has 8 floors of clothes and accessories. Each shop has its own sound track so it’s kinda noisy. The majority of the music being played was Dance, r n b and a few was playing bashment. All the clothes were cute, short, colourful and fluffy. All the staff were cheerful and helpful very different from England. Shibuya 109 is a great place to shop, but can get really crowded.
