Last Full Day in Tokyo

Today (Sunday May 31st) is our last full day in Tokyo. We decided to sleep in a little. Anne skyped her mom and then we went out to eat sushi one more time. The restaurant that we went to was Midori Sushi on the out skirts of Ginza in Hibiya. It was awesome and quite the bargain. After lunch we went to Hibiya park to enjoy Oktoberfest (yep, Oktoberfest in May). It was way too funny to see hundreds of Japanese holding Germany flags, drinking German beer, and eating German fare while listening to polka like music. No one seemed to be able to provide a good answer as to why Oktoberfest is in May, but that didn't appear to hamper the mood. It did however improve my mood thinking of the irony of Oktoberfest in May in Japan. After leaving Hibiya park we enjoyed a 20 minute walk back to our apartment where we packed and relaxed. We then went to Roppongi to cancel my cellphone service and picked up some Sasebo burgers and enjoy the rest of the day (or that is at least the plan - we are actually still on the relaxing and packing part of the day).
