Imperial Palace and the Thunder Dolphin!

So we slept in a bit today and then headed straight for the Imperial Palace in Central Tokyo. You cannot enter the actual Palace you can only wander around the Eastern Gardens etc which is what we did. They were indeed very beautiful, especially the tranquil pond and waterfall. It was super hot today which made it really uncomfortable walking up all the hills. We then headed to Tokyo Dome City which turned out to be a real chore in terms of finding the right stations, buying the right tickets and wandering the streets in confusion. Thank god for Mandas navigational skills or we would never have found it. A nice young chap on a bike approached Manda to tell her that her atmosphere was very attractive and that he wanted to `make friends` with her. She tried to refuse his advances and decline his request for an email address but he didnt understand. So after providing him with a fake email address we finally reached Tokyo Dome City. Bought our tickets for the Thunder Dolphin which was a kickass rollercoaster and had an awesome time! We got the funniest photo of the two of us on the rollercoaster! We cannot upload photos from these computers as they are too slow in case you were wondering why there arent any yet but we will as soon as we get to England tomorrow!! We have to be up at 5am to make sure we get to the Airport in time tomorrow, those annoying men in our dorm room better be quiet tonight or there is going to be hell to pay!! Grrrrrrr.
