Our first stop today was in a rich part of Tokyo called Ginza. We went to Cafe Ginza Paulista which was John Lennon and Yoko Ono's favorite coffee cafe. Yesterday would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday, so we were excited to get to experience this special spot. Then we went to Shibuya which is where the young people love to hang out and show how eccentric they can be. We walked 15 minutes from the station to Harajuku to visit the famous Yoyogi Park. We were thrilled to catch a show of the "Rockabilly" performers. I posted a video of them on my Facebook page. They have huge attitude and great dance moves. They love drinking and smoking and getting their pictures taken. The park was huge, with many performers throughout the park like a pantomime, jazz band, drummers, goth kids, dancers, etc. It was all very amusing. We ended up at a restaurant called La Boheme which had great Italian food.
