Day 12




Today was the long anticipated Asakusa Matsuri Festival! This festival is known as the naked man festival. It's known as one of the biggest festivals in Japan. We went later in the day but there were still plenty of people out and tons of food stalls. All the food was super cheap and I finally got to try a 10 yen cheese coin and my most anticipated food item of all, wagyu beef. I got a wagyu skewer and that was definitely one of the most delicious food items I've had since I've gotten here. I would love to go back for another. At the end of the festival we walked into the start of the ceremony parade that was super fun. There were men and women of all ages participating. When we came back we got some boba down the street. In the convenience store I found different kinds of chips. American flavor, beef noodle flavor, and pepperoni pizza flavor were some interesting ones.
