Takeshi Dori’s Narrow Roads by Angelo Celedonio

I woke up pretty late again, but it was still earlier than Monday. A really long time was also taken to bathe. The heater’s just too good. I ate breakfast, except that the bread tasted awful. I think it was full of raisins. I tried to slather it in milo, but it was just too horrible to taste. I ended up just having a cup of milo for breakfast. Mom should really throw out the bread.

Dad arrived a bit soon after. Tristan and I took too much time to get ready and were left behind by our parents. They ate somewhere else, while Tristan and I stayed behind at the apartment. Tristan played some computer games while I just read something online.

After a while, mom had returned by herself, since dad had to go back to work. Tristan and I shut down our laptops and put them away, but mom complained that we were taking too long. We put on our shoes and headed out.

We ate at McDonald’s, it was much different from the McDonald’s in Singapore, there was Mustard Sauce! It tasted real good with the chicken nuggets. But it tasted even better when the mustard was mixed with the barbeque sauce. Dip the nuggets in, and you give your taste buds heaven for a moment, or that’s probably just me.

After that, we put away the trays, and threw away our trash, and went back outside. We headed into the station, and we travelled by train from Kudanshita to Harajuku. It was a long ride, and I got bored pretty quickly. We finally arrived at Harajuku, which we couldn’t find at first, since it went by a different name in the station maps.

Tristan and I thought we were going to visit some shrines, but apparently mom ‘didn’t feel like it’, so we ended up just wandering around instead. We went into a mall which had an impressive entrance. It was huge. There was an elevator going upwards, which was surrounded by mirrors in a cave-like structure. I made mom buy me something at the mall, but it was just a keychain though.

After that, we walked around ‘till we found a shoe store. I also got new shoes. They had cats on them.They’re great. 

We also got some Pikachu-themed clothes. A jacket for Tristan and a shirt for me. 

After that, Tristan started whining about him being thirsty. So we went up ahead and found another McDonald’s. Mom said that we already ate at McDonald’s, but my brother said that he would just buy a small coca-cola.

In the end, I was the one who ordered it, since Tristan was too shy. Seriously? So I bought one for him and one for myself. After that, we headed back, and had dinner with dad. We ate ‘Butadon’, aka Pork Don. It was really good. Heck, I ate two bowls of it. I was pretty full after that, and we headed home soon after.

Pork Butadon, really yummy!!!
