Japan (Day 3)

Day 3:
In the morning:
I had Domburi for breakfast, next i went to Akihabara to look for computers, audio, video, games, and general electronic stuff. Akihabara station is a series of narrow alley-like passages where everything electronic is sold by small-time operators in small booths, sometimes so small there is room only for the products and a single chair for the person behind the counter. It is so amazing just how small some of these gadgets can be.
In the afternoon:
I had Gomaae for lunch, it was fantastic! I took a stroll through Shinjuku-koen, just west of Shinjuku station. There found dozens of cardboard shacks erected by the homeless of Tokyo. The amazing thing there is that unlike the homeless in the States, these people actually make an effort to keep their places nice. Some of the places are quite elaborate, considering that they're made from cardboard and scrap.
At night:
I had Gyoza for dinner. After eating, I visited a very nice garden just outside of Shinjuku (Shinjuku Gyouen) that boasts a couple of greenhouses full of interesting plant life.
