Earth Tourism, Tuesday 5th period

[unusual_sith]

"Today," Lana announced when everyone was at Portalocity, "we're going to Japan. It's a really interesting place; we've been there on trips before with the school. It's a country on the opposite side of the world from where we are now, composed of a large number of islands, though not as water-based as Venice.

"We don't have enough time to take in even a fraction of it, of course, but we'll be going to the capital city, Tokyo. Specifically, to Senso-ji Temple, which is the oldest religious site in the city, dating back almost fourteen centuries. It's supposed to be quite lovely, and a good example of Japanese tradition. As an added bonus, there are plenty of shops and food places nearby."

Their portal arrived, and Lana ushered them through onto a bustling plaza.

Tokyo! Enjoy the traditional architecture and interesting temple, or go eat and shop!

Yukari's nose wrinkled and she made a disapproving face.

This wasn't new and exciting! She'd been here before! She was from here!

Although....

"If anyone needs a translator," she then said, face brightening cheerfully with the stroke of brilliance, "I'll be happy to offer my services for free drinks later!"

CHarlie grinned at her. "I've got a translator charm that should make sure I can understand people and they can understand me, but I haven't tried it out with Japanese yet. The design is solid, but I'll happily buy you drinks later if you help me test it out!"

Arden knew what she really wanted out of today's adventure: ramen. Real ramen. So was she scouting around looking for a ramen place while admiring everything else?

Hell yeah.
