stalkerbunnySpent most of the shopping with my two younger sisters, which was fun. We didn't buy anything sensible (well, sort of tried to, but when we finally got to the clothes shop we were tired and there were too many people and it was too hot, so we gave up).
However, I managed to exchange the extra vol.5 of Saiyuki reload for vol.9 (of Saiyuki ;). It was surprisingly easy (so I was worried for nothing). Also bought vol. 6 of Jojo's bizarre adventure for my brother. After that we went to a store called Blippo, which has all kinds of manga/anime related merchandise, and...cute stuff (small objects with pictures of small animals/ children / other absurd creatures on them...it's nice to feel childish squuing at them...). AND then we went to a shop called Kukunor, where there are similar things (except of both western movies and anime)...where I found pretty Saiyuki keyrings (or is that what they are called..:/), yay! It seems to me that the best keyring ornaments are often flat, maybe because it's more difficult to turn a two dimensional character into a three dimensional figure...(or maybe some are just badly done, I don't know) I'll possible make an exception to plushies, because they are cuddly. Anyway, I bought Sanzo, Hakkai and Gojyo (and would have no doubt bought Goku too, if there had been a keyring of him there...don't say anything, they were just too pretty).
I also finally managed to prove my theory, that while going to a restaurant, it' better to buy one meal for several people (three), because the portions are almost always too big for one person to eat alone anyway. Well, I was left a bit hungry, but still...and later we bought chocolate cake, and even managed to find seats (and the tea selection included a certain tea I like). So, all in all, a nice day goofing of... :D
