Fast Forward 3 years

Been three years since my last blog post. I stopped travel writing but I didn't stop hobo-ing. Tokyo is now an annual pilgrimage for me and this year, I'm making it in December. It'll be my first trip there in the winter. Brrrr.....

This time though, I won't be traveling alone. My bestie will be trekking it with me. This time, I won't really be hobo-ing either. I'll be putting up in hotels and ryokans. And it won't be all Tokyo. We plan to do make a trip up North with her bro who lives in the city, exploring onsen hotspots.

WIll I be blogging about this trip? I might. But my priority is my food blog now on rumblingtummy.tumblr.com For sure, the food pix will be going up.

Till then. See you maybe on blogspot. But definitely on tumblr.

Where are the Harajuku Girls?

Two trips to Tokyo.

Three stakeouts at Jingu-bashi.

And still no sighting.

Who goes to Tokyo without meeting a Harajuku Girl but me?

I did everything right: Showed up at 10am on a Sunday, showed up the next Saturday (in the rain). I even did a surprise check on the Wednesday in between — figured there might be a make-up session for the lack of show the weekend before.

I figured wrong. Even the security guard at Meiji Jingu next door had no idea why they should clear out every time I turn up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. I shouldn't take it personally.

Bah!
