Monday was the day we went to Odaiba! We took the train across the Rainbow Bridge and into Odaiba. We started off with a great ramen lunch and ate out on the balcony, enjoying the scenery.
After that was shopping! For about four hours we had free time to run around the shopping center. This included a pants-soiling horror house. Given only a red flashlight and forced to walk in a single-file line, we went inside only to scream at every single thing. Every sound was ominous and frightening and the house was filled with our screams and cries of, “KAMI-SAMA, TASUKETE KUDASAI. (GOD, PLEASE HELP US.)” Once we shook it off we were able to continue our shopping. We split up to go to the stores we wanted to. These included a pet store with dogs and cats that were just an overload in cuteness factor, Starbucks with a mango passion tea or yuzu frappucino, various clothes stores, and other little knick knacks.
We had dinner at an Italian restaurant. The pizza was thin crust but still delicious and we had all sorts of different pasta. The sun set and the city was full of colorful lights that were breathtaking. After enjoying the scenery we headed back to the train station to go back to the church.
Once we had to split up the tears wouldn’t stop coming. Some people wouldn’t be able to make it to church the next morning to say goodbye. We went back to our homestays for the night.
