An early start found Dr. Joe and I scaling Mt. Tsukuba to reach the Tsukuba (pronounced scuba) shrine. The hike was worth it as we found more torii, waterfalls, and the dreaded bridge of doom.
We then proceeded to head back to Tokyo to meet up with the other 9 groups and begin debriefing.
However, upon arrival in Tokyo, there was some free time to go adventuring so I went off to Akihabara! For anyone who likes electronics and anime/manga, Akihabara is Mecca. Akihabara easily earns its title as electric town with tons of shops for computers, electronics, video games, and anime.
I then ran back to Asakusa and Harajuku to do some last minute shopping for omiyage or gifts to bring home for my family and friends.
