Day 1 in Japan Site seeing

In Tokyo they have modern food like in North America as for breakfast they eat food like we eat here such as mini pizzas and cereal. In order to get around Tokyo the cheapest way is to take the subway and get a one day pass. In Japan we visited a school that was an all girls school and they wore uniforms to school. Also the school had many ads for universities in Tokyo. Then I went with my home stay family to Yasukuni Shrine it was a nice shrine it was small and had trees in it. Also there was animals guarding the gates and 3 main enternce tori gates. At the shrine there was a statue of the general who built the temple during the Meiji period. The Yasukuni Shrine is quite small.  Then we went to the Meiji shrine it has a nice long park with huge tall trees. Also there is a garden and a few restaurants there. The shrine had  a place to ceremonially wash before entering the main part of the shrine and  a place to write wishes and hang them up so they come true these are key features of every shrine. The park surrounding the shrine is quit large an beautiful with tall trees and gravel walkways. At the Meji shine they have ice cream and the tofu flavoured ice cream is delicious it is not too sweet but just right.  Then we went to the Shinjuku district it had nice cheep shops and on Harajuku Takeshita street. Everywhere shop keepers were holding up signs and yelling at people passing by in order to have them buy their stuff. Then we had lunch at a nice restaurant in the area. The restaurant had a nice buffet at luch that had interesting and simple Japanese cuisine. Then we went to the Tokyo Central United Church a church were international foreigners can attend they were having a special outreach to people who were less fortunate in giving them a free meal and a concert. Then we went to Shinbuku district  it is more crowded there as packed with people and shops. Then we saw the bridge that was quite small from the Edo period. Also there were monks trying to get people to give them money. I then went to a kimono store and saw many beautiful kimonos.  The kimono designs were very unique but they were very expensive as much as wedding dresses or grad dresses in North America. Then we went to the Ginza district where there  are many American stores such as Forever 21, Starbucks, Gucci, Lactose, and Adidas. Also the Ginza district has many foreign European shops the prices are very comparable to North American prices.  We  had  Japanese curry for supper it is a very sweet and not very spicy curry this is very different from other curries.
