Lost In Libations

Alas the time has come for us to leave Tokyo. Hi, Tokyo you are wacky, hilarious and overwhelming. The people are so helpful when a couple of idiot Americans stand around confused like a monkey trying to do a math problem.

The one we found had a machine like this to order from. It's really cool you just press buttons for what you want and pay and you get a ticket to hand to the cook and they just bring your food... Me in my happy place... FOOD!! After eating my body weight in noodles...again, we decided it was time to be homos and hit up the gay district which is in an area called Ni-chome... It'...
