There were department stores, restaurants, things like that. This street was filled with more of the older crowd, like office ladies and salarymen. But boy was it crowded! It was a sea of people on both sidewalks. I had never seen so many people in one place before! Despite the crowds, Kevin and I knew that we had to make it to Kiddyland.

We decided to grab a bite to eat at Shakey's Pizza, which they used to have in Hawaii (and I think they still do have one location on Oahu). We picked this place because there was a really good buffet deal. Also, since there was a line, we assumed that this was a good place to eat. 

Once inside, we headed straight to the buffet. There were many different types of pizzas ranging from traditional cheese, sausage, basil. But there were also decidedly Japanese things like fried potatoes slices (pictured below), corn-cheese-mayo pizza, shrimp-mayo pizza, and even a dessert pizza that had matcha and adzuki beans! I know the mayo pizzas sound disgusting, and I personally hate mayo. But Japanese mayonnaise is very different from American mayo. It doesn't taste disgusting. lol

After lunch, we headed to Takeshita Dori, that famous shopping street. After seeing what Omotesando looked like, I told Kevin to brace himself. But even I was not prepared for the massive amounts of people crammed into this little street! 

Back on the street, I snapped some pictures when I could. The fashion was definitely the main point in this place, and there were so many different styles! 

Here are the famous Harajuku crepes. I did not get to eat one because it was SO crowded. I confess that these pictures were taken on a different day, when we went back during a week day. There was no way I was able to take any pictures down this road on Sunday. I would have been run over! 

This guy was creepy. I'm pretty sure it was a dude. I was too creeped out to take a picture with him so I snapped this pic of him with a couple of gyarus. 

I managed to find a Bodyline shop, which has very affordable Lolita clothing. I didn't end up buying anything, I felt kind of out of place in the store, actually. There were many more Lolita shops around, but I just did not know where they were. I know now, and next time I will definitely go to them all! 

We tried Japanese McDonalds, which had an ebi filet! This was worlds better than a regular filet-o-fish, and it had a really yummy sauce. Kevin got a burger, but it had some sort of wasabi aioli, which he really enjoyed. Again, small cups, but that was perfectly alright. BTW, don't walk around Japan thinking you are going to find a trash can for your rubbish when you are done. They don't exist. Sometimes you will find an area with bins, but they are few and far between. Trash your trash when you can. 

Back on the main street, we saw a parade of Lolitas. It was, really, a parade. There were about 30 of them promoting something, I think the opening of a new store somewhere. They were pretty adorable. 

When we went back to the entrance near the shrine, right next to the train station, there was a massive crowd of people. There was some sort of gathering going on which was not normal for a Sunday. I spoke to one of the Lolitas who told me that there was a lolita event going on. She said that they used to be able to hang around every Sunday, but that was stopped by officials for some reason or another. I was really lucky to be here on that day, and I got a bunch of pictures.
