Hey you guys Phoebe here from Little Grey Box now Matt and I are both is so
so happy because we are in one of our all-time favorite countries Japan and we
are exploring what about favorite cities Tokyo now we've already done a couple of
the big spots Harajuku and Shibuya in another video today we are all about
exploring UN oh and the areas around you Anna so what we decided to do after a
big couple of days of walking around we want to hire bikes and we want to ride
around town this is something we did last summer in Tokyo and we loved it so
we really want to have another bicycling experience reuniting a notorious bike
gang hell's sphincter we were known around Brisbane there were at least two
to three people that knew about our bike gang and we were pretty hey you guys
when it came to the higher bikes it was a little bit hard for us to figure out
what to do I thought we should go with Tokyo bike rental because it was the
only one I could really find but it was twenty five hundred yen per person for
the day from around 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and then Matt found this place it was
300 yen per person for the whole day it's obscene it's so cheap now you guys
we had a little bit of trouble finding this place today and it was just because
we didn't know what we're looking for and Google Maps wasn't the most helpful
you want to look for the yellow flag and the bike symbol on the concrete there
behind it go down here and then to the right and then I think to the right
again is how it works and there's a really cute little old man
down there who works down there there are bikes everywhere and he will help
you we have to give him our passports so you will need that and we have to give
you the details of our hotel including the address and phone number so we've
got all our destinations marked out we're gonna be cycling all around you I
know today and saying just what there is to see do and eight
subscribe so we have when I'm walking street market this place is packed with
all kinds of food vendors and shops and guys I'm so hungry I have to eat so I
was really craving some takoyaki some octopus balls so we are lined up here to
get some takeaway next we've got the takoyaki soil some bonito flakes and
this is an extra special edition of what the heck am i eating because matt has
been eyeing these things off ever since we got here we've seen these everywhere
but there's gooey cheese inside and then it's covered in some kind of a batter
and then the batter is rolled into potatoes we put some sweet chili on ours
look at this
there is a God there are lots and lots of shops around this area you could just
walk up and back down in through little alleyways and spot loads and loads of
shops if you're so inclined Matt and I aren't really big shopping types so
we're gonna give that a skip I just want to say it gets very very crowded yeah I
feel really anxious my social anxiety is triggered so if you are like me and
crowds aren't your favorite thing just make sure you come at times a day
where that's not going to upset you I think the Japan is a really safe place I
have no issue whatsoever just make sure your valuables are safe on you keep
yours backpackers zipped up keep your passport your wall all those things
right on you so that no one can get too
this is Nutkin visa Dory and it is the big shopping street in this area there
are loads of people here I am NOT gonna lie I've told you guys to pull crabs and
not my things I do feel a little bit anxious about it but I'm sure it's gonna
be okay there are so many shops lining these
areas there are all these beautiful little branch things I think they meant
to kind of resemble cherry blossoms in a way they're really beautiful
everything's bright and colorful there's so much food to try it looks like a
really cool place to a walk for a little while
try some different kinds of birds and pick up some cool souvenirs
after you've done the round at the shopping street you come to the other
end and you will end up here it's absolutely amazing and behind this there
are some other temples too so yeah just cycling here just beautiful gardens I
think they'd be absolutely stunning during spring or fall but we're having a
really nice time trying this area it was being so easy to get around some point
wait no stress we felt totally comfortable and safe on their bikes I
highly recommend spending your day riding around like this it's so much fun
oh you guys are out of the two of us who do you think is cool of me on that
obviously me stay with me even your camera thinks it's me it's me
it's not you it's really not you I'm way cooler than you come on now if you
subscribe this channel just for me I'm watching
mama hates everything you eat the beans half of this one brands like about five
or six around the table no way says all my edamame or anything
there's no beans in mine that's right many been sucking on everybody
all right you guys the head brings out day here too and and we are finishing
things up there the last bit of filming we are going to return the mics and
catch the train back to our apartment and get a good sleep because tomorrow we
are all about that shizuka life yes we're going to be exploring the area
around the hotel and tomorrow is all about money guys so it is the start of
our shinjuku day and today is all about treat yo self and have some fun
we went and dropped an obscene amount of money at the bakery but hey that's what
you save your money elsewhere for right we went to a place called the lodge and
that is right near the shinjuku station and then we came here to the Shinjuku
Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden it was 200 yen each to get in and we have got a
face I've got so many more pastries in this bag you just walk in you black out
and you come out and you're like why did I buy 10 croissants why not this place
is beautiful now it's windows so things are a little bit sparse but in fall or
spring it is just stunning here and that is Matt's favorite building
okay now you guys know Matt and I I'm not fancy but we loved places like
partition my oh one we here for a couple of reasons one this building is also
home to Uniqlo which is just like that iconic kind of Japanese shopping and
most importantly there is this food Mecca down the bottom of Turkish amaya I
wouldn't say it's the cheapest but it is a cheaper option sometimes I just like
to get salads and takeaway bits and pieces and kind of put together a cute
luncheon picnic which we can eat outside on warm sunny days so let's go inside
and check out some ayah and do a little bit shocking I can learn shopping in
Shinjuku and made just shocking still says and face me one I love coming down
here because there is so much food to dry it smells amazing Enya so whatever
it is you feel like trying they ever got it
look at the size of that sushi roll
yeah this is one of my favorite places in Tokyo it's just all set oh my gosh
alright so now we're doing one of my favorite things to do in Tokyo we just
go to the batting cages this is so much fun
matt is a natural athlete he's really good at this it takes me a while to get
going but when you disconnect you smack that ball all right so you come inside
there is a change machine over here when you get attentions you are going to need
to under get points and then you're gonna pretend you're in sissy's gonna
end into one of the empty sluts you're gonna go in put your money in and go for
it now they're organized according to the classes of the ball
now we're done with that so we are just going to go back to the apartment and we
gonna rest out because we have been a big night plan we are actually gonna be
heading out for some karaoke and some dinner and a bar crawl which I'm really
excited about you would not believe how much you like karaoke gives us we
absolutely love coming scary-oke on Tokyo and it is not karaoke Oh in Tokyo
it is not anything like karaoke bars at home where you have to sing in front of
everyone you get a private room it's just the two of you they have English
songs it's 620 n for 30 minutes with all your
drinks included it's fantastic value and this is so much fun we're going bak
rolling up to this and this is the perfect way to stop it's not gonna get
stepping it smells like cigarette smoke and sweating you just the way I like it
in the shower and get back to now we're going to go and meet everybody for our
amazing bike roll through the shinjuku and golden gai
