Harajuku

Was in Tokyo for a meeting Monday and Tuesday, so hung out in super-trendy Harajuku Sunday afternoon.

Teeming with teens - the vast majority of them so stylishly dressed (short skirts, brightly coloured stockings and boots are so in) I felt like some old dowdy aunt.

Lots of boutiques, pseudo-Italian cafes, Zara, and Gap... (Can't escape the Gap).

For a great description of Harajuku, check out Gwen Stefani's single "Harajuku Girls".
