Day three and four






Today I went to Sumo wrestling. We had a picture with a sumo, he was huge. They are really big. I went to Pokemon Centre and it was amazing. I bought a Pokemon Card Game, you can only buy in Japan. We went to a park it was fun but just as we were going into the garden it closed.

We saw all of Tokyo from an observatory. We didn’t see Mount Fuji because it was covered by clouds.

Day four and day two

it looks purple but it's actually white.

These scared me!
My dad is a dork!

I went to the aquarium. The seals were doing wicked tricks. I got a slimy ice-cream. At the end of the aquarium there was a huge store of fluffy toys, but I don't know why? After the aquarium we went to Ueno. It had a big park were there were evil cats. They looked vicious there was a black cat a tabby cat, and a scratched cat. We saw a baseball field. Last night there was a typhoon - A typhoon (Japanese: taifu) is a large low pressure system, originating over the Northwest Pacific Ocean. It is accompanied by strong winds of up to around 200 km/h, a rise of the sea level and torrential rainfalls. Over the Atlantic Ocean, typhoons are known as hurricanes.
I am going to see Sumo wrestlers today and Pokemon world and an art gallery of Robots. We saw a performance at a theatre in Tokyo. I got a drink I have never had before, I didn't like it. The theatre and performance was Kabuki. It is traditional Japanese theatre. Hi friends I miss you - the day I went I cried - I'm having fun in Japan and I'm in Ikebukuro - goodbye - I will post again soon. Love Iggy

Two weeks until we go, and counting down.



Hi this is mum - Iggy will be seriously blogging soon - the first time you will hear from him is in Japan. We are heading off on Tuesday the 16th, sadly the day of the school concert where we won't get to see Jack be a a tiger, Ebony a panther, or Phadera a bear; but excitingly to TOKYO, Mount Fuji, hot springs and the world of Astro Boy, Kimba the white lion and anything Myazaki and Pokemon.
