Fanta Grape!

Akihabara is awesome - full of amazing electronic stores (going to upgrade my camera in a minute) and girls dressed as maids touting 'maid cafes', which are basically just themed eateries (maybe later today, AW!). Yesterday, I went into the centre of Tokyo, did a bus tour around the Imperial Palace and then headed to the ultra-trendy neighbourhoods of Harajuku and Shibuya. For those who don't know, I'm staying in a capsule hotel. The best way I can describe it is camping indoors. The actual capsules are surprisingly spacious, but the walls are thin so you hear every sneeze and snore. Oh, yeah - Fanta Grape. When I moved from SA to Oz 12 years ago, I was shocked and dismayed one of my all-time favourite beverages wasn't available. I even contacted Coca-Cola and asked them for an explanation. But Fanta Grape LIVES here in Tokyo! I'm liking this place more and more...
