Meiji Shrine and Okonomiyaki
On Sunday we had a chance to take a walk through Yoyogi Park on our way to Meiji Shrine. Since it was Sunday the park was alive with activity and people watching was at its prime. After we looked around Meiji Shrine it was a quick walk to the okonomiyaki restaurant Sakuratei in Harajuku. Students cooked the okonomiyaki themselves and enjoyed chatting with their new friends. Students enjoyed some time in the Harajuku area after lunch.
