Kamakura and meeting up with Lili

Went to Kamakura today and saw the Kencho-ji, Tsuugako Hachimanga Shrine, Hasedera Temple, and Diabatsu.

I then headed back to Tokyo and went to Ueno to wait for Lili. Since we couldn't find a locker that would fit her luggage, we lugged them around. First we went to see the museum in Ueno Park, and then went to Asakusa to see the Sensoji Shrine (it was dark). After that we headed to Ikebukuro to eat at Namjatown (Gyoza Stadium and the Cream Puff Town or whatever) next to my hotel. At around 10pm, we headed to Shinjuku so that she could catch her train back to Kanazawa. Unfortunately, we had a tough time locating the proper bus terminal, so we had to literally run through the streets (actually only a couple blocks) towing her luggage. If only we had some cameramen like on the Amazing Race to get some footage! Luckily, we made it with about a minute to spare, so she was able to get back to Kanazawa instead of being stuck in Tokyo.
