Now MMM has me worried - if most places are closed .... how will I eat? Or are the resturants open? I don't mind it being 'lonely' ... I'm going alone so I kind of expect that. It will be a good chance to just walk around and see the sights though. |
I spent a couple New Year's in Japan, one time with another American friend, and we just wanted to find a place to celebrate the "count down" but all we found was one empty bar. I am sure Roppongi has some foreigner bars open, but I was with a friend, and we were both kinda depressed walking past one closed shop after another.
Of course not everything is closed down, but I would just say I can't think of a worse time to be alone in Japan. You have a few months, so let's see if you can't find some alternative to walking the streets during those days.
