We awoke and left our hotel, tracing the very familiar path from our hotel through Shibuya Mark City to the bustling Shibuya station.
We caught the Subway and road to Nakameguro.
We walked through quaint, peaceful neighbourhood streets.
Tokyo has some lovely, suburban feeling pockets mere minutes out of the main hustle and bustle hubs.
A pleasant walk later, we arrived at a Blue Bottle.

After a lovely morning coffee, we departed, and made our way back to Nakameguro station, cutting through some beautiful streets on the way.
We soon arrived at the station and boarded a train for Shinjuku.
A short train ride later, we arrived in Shinjuku.
We walked through the massive station and attached shopping malls towards West Shinjuku.
We made our way towards the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, large skyscrapers looming before us.
Eventually, we arrived at the base of the Metropolitan Government Building.
We made our way up, enjoying the vistas afforded by the clear, sunny weather.
We left the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and made our way for our final Ichiran of the trip.

We looked around inside the large store. On the liquor floor, I deliberated picking up a bottle of Nikka Coffee Grain Whisky, but ultimately ended up leaving the store empty handed.
We then made our way back to the hotel.
That evening, we headed through Harajuku to pick up some wigs for a future costume idea.
After picking up our wigs, we walked back towards Shibuya.
After a quick stop-in at Tokyu Hands, we made our way to Tonkatsu Maisen for our last dinner in Tokyo.

After our nightcap, we headed back to the hotel...
...And decided to go on one last mission—pick up Nikka Coffee Grain Whisky from Don Quijote.
We dropped our bags, cameras, and set off to Shinjuku, fully unemcumbered for the first time on the trip.
We made our way by train to Shinjuku, and rushed through late night Shinjuku streets, for Don Quijote.
Inside, we headed up to the liquor floor and... Could not find any of the Nikka Coffee Grain Whisky left, despite it being a mere few hours later. Alyssa went to find a staff member to see if they could look up if they had any stock left.
Just when it looked like a failed mission, I noticed one last bottle perched high up out of reach... I stood on a nearby stool, and sure enough, the last bottle of Nikka Coffee Grain Whisky.
A successful Whisky mission later, we returned back to our hotel to turn in for the night.
