Goodbye Tokyo

Well I'm sorry about how I have neglected this blog lately, but what with moving back home and all the things I was doing I was just way too busy!

BUT here it is. The Final Post about Tokyo! After this the blog is changing directions and changing cities!!!

Ok so Here goes

In my last post I mentioned that I was going to Tokyo Decadence, an erotica crazy party. Well yes I did go and it was NUTS! So many g-strings and so much leather and glitter make-up. I took Hilary and we had a great time. I even got to meet Nanbu from the Tokyo Shock Boys!


I went to Spank dj, Teenage Kicks, Vanity, Hanabi, Disneyland, stayed at spank house, went to the best swimming pool ever, airport...soooo many things in my last 2 weeks!

Tokyo Decadence


Kawaii!!!


This photo shows the crazy wet underpants comp.
The men started off having paper wrapped around them
then members of the audience started squirting them
with water guns so the paper will fall off!
CRAZY


Bondage man!


ewwwwwww
There were alot of people dressed like this!
I repeat, ewwwwwww


Me and Nanbu from the Tokyo Shock Boys.

Me and that is Abe at the front. We met him that night, and
I ended up going to a few parties and to Disneyland with him.
He is from the USA, he was in Tokyo for 2 months, he is
a fine art student. He had a crush on Maya.

Tabuchi and Maya
It was so much fun, so many people, so much beautiful fireworks!


Also lots of beautiful Yukata (Summer Kimono)
This was at the train station on the way to the festival!

Vanity

This party was meant to be full of Fuji-Rock celebs. Apparently it was, I just didn't recognise anyone due to being drunk and kinda not into bands....oh well.


Tabuchi and Gallermic in his Green cape!


The guy with the bowl cut wouldn't let me take a photo of him...until
I told him I was a photographer for the Australian mag Oyster and he
would be in the next issue. Then he really wanted me to photograph him!
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!


Swimming Pool

This is the craziest pool I have EVER seen! It is the Edogawa Pool Garden. It was very cheap to get in, only 500Yen (About $5AUD) which for Japan is super cheap! Other pools cost $50!
I liked this pool soooo much I went twice. Once on my own and then again with Hil. The pool is very very shallow, only up to your upper thigh! But that is normal for Japan, because my friend KG who lived in Aus for 1 year was very very shocked by Aussie pools and how deep they are, he thinks it is very dangerous. I think however Japanese pools are more dangerous, because the ground is painted the same colour as the water and EVERYONE has these floaty boats, but the kids have the dangerous banned in Australia ones. The ones that your legs go through and if it turns upside down you cant turn it upright and you are stuck. This happened to a 2 year old infront of me and Hil, so we had to rescue him....sooooooo dangerous!

The STRANGEST thing about this pool though is how every 2 hours there is an announcement and everyone gets out of the pool. When this first happened I had been there for 5 minutes and I thought it was closing. But I stayed around, watching what happens to see if maybe its just to clean the pool or something. Well the lifegaurds all get together and talk, and 10 mins later everyone can get back into the pool. I asked the Spank girls WHY this happens. They said it is for your health! What the? Its so you have a break. It doesnt make any sense to me. Crazy Japanese. When I took Hil to the pool she thought it was the silliest thing too.

ALSO they have a water slide and a big loop pool that has a current that pushes you along. Its very fun!



Lots of people at the pool!


Me and Hil in our swimsuits!



The loop pool that pushes you along!


I ended up having to stay at the Spank Girls houses due to my "Gaijin house" (foreigner share house) wanting me to pay my FULL RENT to stay an extra 5 days! BULLSHIT.
But it ended up being the best thing ever. I stayed at Maya's house for 2 nights, Yuki and KG's for 1 night then Tabuchi's for 2 nights! Maya's house is very small but nice, and Yukis house is CRAZY small, but nice. Tabuchis house is the biggest and very clean. I had sooooooo much fun staying at their houses, I'm glad that its the way it worked out! Maya was soooo nice, so helpful, helping me pack, get a suitcase posted to Australia and sooo much more. Maya I miss you!!! Yuki and KG made a great dinner of soba noodles (actually it was a different noodle, but same kinda thing) and Tabuchi made yummy tomato soup. Soooo great! Yay yay!

Disneyland

I went to Disneyland with Maya, Abe and Saki. Maya, Abe and I got the starlight passport from 3 and Saki came at 6 with the nightlight passport.


Welcome!


Goodbye
Saki, Me, Abe and Maya!


Our photo from Splash mountain. Its actually a photo of the photo they show you that
you are ment to buy....haha.
You can see that Saki is ducking, and Maya was trying to.
This was our 2nd time on the ride, and me and Abe were trying to make them not duck,
but it was impossible. They were too scared, so cute.


Me and Maya, Im Minnie Mouse and she is Daisy Duck.
Kawaii!

Goodbye Party at Tabuchi's House!!!


"Western Eyes"
kinda racist...but hey I did Japanese eyes for them too...they just laughed!


Everyone enjoying Tabuchis GREAT cooking.
It was amazing, all vegetarian and healthy and "Oishi" (Delicious in Japanese)


We had to pick up my suitcase from the Spank shop.
Hil and Maya slept over on the last night too, after the party.


Hil is very Kichigy (crazy)

Airport

Ths Spank girls, Hil and my student Sakiko all came to the airport to say goodbye.



I look in shock.
Yuki, Hil, Tabuchi, Me, Saki and Maya.
After this we all cried!


Me and Sakiko my student. We ate Maccas breakfast on the observation balcony!


That was my FINAL Tokyo post (for now!)

I had the BEST time, better than I ever imagined.
I miss EVERYONE.

Love Forever Hayley xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
