We attempted to go to Nikko this Wednesday (the day before our Japanese final!) but in the end we failed... so we had more time to study. Guess it was a good thing. We woke up early to go to Tokyo Station because according to the website you can purchase a World Heritage Pass that includes train tickets, and a bus that takes you to all the different temples. After wandering around and asking every ticket office worker where we could buy this pass we went to Asakusa station (because the website said both stations sold the pass). At Asakusa station we were told that we would have to pay extra since it was a later time and because the temples close at 4pm, by the time we got to Nikko we would only have an hour and a half to sight see. After all this confusion and craziness we just decided that we would have a stroll in Asakusa and spend the day wisely and study.
All we could do was laugh (and cry a little) at how horribly wrong everything seemed to be going..
Ended up being a fun day though - putting off studying for as long as possible. Sophie had a parfait (which in Japan means ice cream and cornflakes)
Shaved ice is the BEST in Japan.
Emelie had a smoke, in a clearly marked no smoking area..
..and then the heat got to her.
