Hi!
How was your holiday?
Mine was fantastic!
For Christmas I went to Tokyo and stayed at my friends' house near Ueno.
On Christmas day I met some friends in Shibuya and ate Kyushu ramen for lunch.
After that we went shopping in Akihabara because my friend wanted to buy a Nintendo Wii.
In the evening we met up with some other friends and had Christmas sushi and Christmas beer!

Boxing Day was also fun.
My friend is French, so he wanted to make us some French food for lunch.
It was amazing!
After lunch, we played Wii sports, and then went to a Japanese pub
in Ikebukuro with some friends.

While in Tokyo I also went to a very famous rice cake shop in Asakusa.
I bought some very spicy rice cakes as a souvenir for everybody at Imarge!
Please try them, but beware, they are VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY spicy!
