Day 7: Yes! A laid back day! We didn't have anything going on today, except for passing out flyers at Waseda University. One BIG change today was that the other half of our group finally came back to Tokyo this afternoon. So they were there with us. After Waseda we all went to one of the best restaurants in the world, Yakiniku. It's an all you can eat meat place where you have your own grill and they bring you unlimited raw meat. You then grill it yourself on a little bilt in grill in the middle of the table. They also bring out vegetables and the drinks are unlimited too! Needless to say, we were all pretty full afterwards. We met with Sayaka's parents, and while the rest of the team went back to the XA Student Center, my family and I went to Japan's "capital building" in downtown Tokyo. There's an observation deck at the top, and if the weather it clear enough, you can see Mt. Fuji from there. Sadly, it was too dark. But the view was still amazing. It's just city as far as the eye can see. We could also see Sky Tree, the tallest structure in the world. After that, I had the responsibility of leading my family through the train systems of Tokyo. Thank God, we made it back alright. There was also a beautiful sunset tonight, which was quite refreshing nonetheless.
Here are some pictures from the "capital tower". The second one is of Sky Tree.
