I travel to Japan every year and write about my adventures here.
I am still adding new blogs about my trip to Japan in October 2014.
To end the 2005 / 2006 Japan trip here is a collection of the vlogs that I have made during the trip.
It was an amazing trip in a gothic lolita wonderland!
We got to film for a huge Dutch TV program and this broadcast is also on Youtube.
We filmed in Harajuku , bought fukubukuro , ate the most amazing food , saw so many new things
and met new people. Especially the visit to the Metamorphose staff was very special.
Today is the day of a international Lolita meetup in Harajuku.
This day we filmed some footage for:
Sorry for the evil face.
First we went to the post office to check if it was open,
we kind of ran out of money yesterday and the ATM's were closed that day
and today it still was closed :s Damn now we don't have money..
So if you are in Japan around new year,
keep in mind the first few days every ATM is closed!
We do have a credit card but that is only for emergencies like food.
We went to the station trough a other way then usually we passed something,
I really don't know what it is.
We decided to take a look at Laforet, Closet child and Bodyline.
After this everyone went their own way. It was very nice to meet them all!.
Hennie and I went looking for a place to eat again,
we could only pay with credit card so that was a bit hard,
they only place that accepted credit card was Starbucks.
Today we went again to Harajuku because I wanted
a lucky bag from Angelic pretty and Putumayo.
Never could I have imagined that it would be such a big deal!
When we arrived at Harajuku all the streets were locked off for the cars,
and everywhere you saw lines with people waiting outside,
with most of them I had no idea for which shop they were waiting.
This was the strangest thing I ever saw!
When we walked further to Laforet there was in a big street next to it also a very long line,
and yes it was for Laforet, the opening time was 11:00 but some were already waiting
for 11 hours :s I would never do that for clothings!
notice my hat on the bottom left.
My boyfriend.
*LOL*
We decided to join the line since I still wanted the lucky bags.
When we joined the line we got some kind of hot bag thingy!
It took about 15 minutes before we could enter the store, I think that was very quick,
everything was coordinated very well by the staff members of Laforet.
It was very crowed in Laforet. We went a few stairs down and reached Angelic Pretty,
everyone was pushing and trying to get trough, when we finally got closer,
the shop girl said the bags were sold out, but when I walked a bit away,
my boyfriend managed to get a bag that came out of nowhere.. YEAH!
It was the second last one! A other boy had the last bag for his girlfriend.
After this I went to Putumayo, at first sight it didn't look very crowded
but when I watched closer the line was some were else, it was in a staircase.
Sso I went to there.. going up.. and up and more up.. Damn.. At the top the line ended.
There was a nice girl who spoke a bit English.
After waiting for about 20 minutes we were picked up and taken to the Putumayo shop,
there we could pick a lucky box and enter the line for the counter,
I also took 2 little accessory bags :)
My boyfriend took a picture while it was not allowed,
a lady from the shop saw it and stopped him, he also filmed a little bit.

Finally it was over, we've been in Laforet for about 1 hour,
we went outside to take a seat and examine the bags.
What was in the bags, you see a bit later down here-->
I wanted to know where exactly the Btssb Daikanyama store
was located so we went to there but unfortunately the shop was closed.
Very nice building!
After this we went back, we passed the Ebisu station where we ate a burger at Wendy's.
Well what was in my lucky bags.
Angelic Pretty a full Black x white outfit.
For Putumayo It was a full red x black outfit.
