One busy day : Arashi concert -> Geisha Performance

Sosososos I finallly got to go see Arashi.
For those of you who do not know, I am a huge Arashi fan.... :)
But since I live in Canada I've never got to see them before.
And because they are like One Direction of Japan it is very very hard to get tickets from their popularity.
I am actually in their fan club but I couldn't get their first concert tickets and actually tickets for this performance as well.

But my friend's friend's friend generously offered me her tickets and my dream has come true.


After buying some arashi goods (You usually line up for several hours) we went inside the hotel and wait until the event started.

All seats were full.

Look at the amount of people!!

So I got to go in and I actually got to seat more in the front.
This event wasn't an actual concert but nonetheless I got to see them live in action and talking.
I teared up at first (yes I know this is weird) and I couldn't believe that I actually got to see them.

And then right after the concert. 
I ran to Asakusa. I literally ran through the crowds to head to my Geisha Class.

This was our last lesson for the class where we got to se the Geisha performances in real life. 
In reality you would have to pay hundreds to see this but since we were enrolled in that class we got to see it for around $40.

This was my table. But they already finished eating by the time I reached there!



Everyone in my class is excited to see the performances.

This was a comedy performance done by a male geisha.




We got to individually talk to the geishas and ask them many questions!



We also got to play drinking games with them.



This was fun!

A traditional seat.

This is another type of game.


At the end they bowed to us.


And we drank until all the liquor was gone... :)
