Capsual based fun.

so, its now about... 38 hours untill i fly home. and im really looking forward to being back! i have loved japan, the country the people.. the crazy little things that you would only get here... its been amazing. today i just walked.. literally all day.. walked from my capsual hotel in Ueno to shibuya, then from there to Shinjuku then got the metro back to Ginza.. then back to the hotel... and for the past hour or two iv been walking around the market here in Ueno... i havnt really go many pictures to put up of all of it, cos youv seen it all before in my earlier posts.. iv had really good weather tho... im nackered now from walking round all day!

so i thought i would show you the capsual hotel in more detail, as its a really interesting place... my phone camera has been playiong up a bit again today.. but anyway. it is a very strange place.. it is in the dirtiest part of Ueno... literally outside the door right now theres about 7 tramps that i can see from here... two of them sleeping literally right next to a main road.. :s.. the rooms dont have locks, because... there literally just holes in the wall with matresses in. if i kneel up in my capsual i have to bend my neck. and its about 6ft deep, so it literally just fits the 'matress' in. the picture bellow shows the amount of room to the side of the bed.


this is the air vent... designed to keep the room cool. it does not work. atall. last night it was like a fucking oven in there... seriously the hottest nights sleep iv ever had!

i get a little tv a phone and a mini-safe....
thankfully the 'smoking area' is just round the corner from my cave... so atleast i have the refreshing smell of smoke to lul me to sleep. saying that though, the pillows are much better than what i had at the forest hostel... so im greatful than that atleast! this is my last night here, then im going back to the Oak Hotel that me and jade stayed in.... for no other reason than this place dusnt have a shower.. and i smell terrible...

whey for english chocolate.
this is the view from the park near the station.
