Hi everybody!
Today we went to Ueno Zoo!
We also saw a bunch of other stuff too!
First – we went to the local elementary school to watch
Ken-kun’s concert! The elementary school kids were really good! They played some
fun songs. David, ever known for his musical taste and music appreciation, also
came (but only because he saw that the music class was playing AKB48’s “Heavy
Rotation”).
Then – we got on the Shinkansen again! And this time we got
pictures (tell David Lam)!
And then we arrived in Tokyo! We then took a quick
chikatetsu (subway) ride to Ueno Doubutsuen (Ueno Zoo)!
Yay! Meeting more pandas! Kawaii panda ga nihiki ita (there
were two pandas!)!
And who says pandas only sleep all day – these pandas were
very nice to us and walked up to say hi! They had some nice bamboo too!
Then we bought panda cookies and ate panda snak’ems! The
café also had panda pancakes and panda udon! I like going to zoos! All the
people at zoos like pandas!
We also met other nice animals – like Mr. Shirokuma (polar
bear) and Mr. Pengin (penguin) like in Shirokuma Café. There was also a fun
petting zoo – it was fun petting the sheep and goats with a bunch of cute toddlers.
There was also this poor tortoise (kame) who fell over. But
then he got up all by himself so it was good.
Then we saw a scary tiger (kowai tora). David likes
tigers…makes sense…both are scary monsters…
But we had a lot of
fun! Hooray for Ueno Zoo!
This weekend we will
go back to Tokyo with the Stanford students! Looking forward to it!
