So I'm finally coming to Japan!!!! For a 20 hour layover!!!!

My Flight is stopping at Narita Airport on jun 1st at 9:00pm and leaving the following day at 5:25pm....She lives in Adachi-ku, Tokyo, Japan. She said she could meet me the next day...

....So I'm thinking if taking a subway there to her town...

....Are there any 24/7 starbucks or any free wi fi cafes in her area that I could chill out at while I wait for her to get off work... since I won't have a phone so I'll be using skype to make contact....

....She mentioned that we go to Asakusa....anybody been there?

I'm pretty sure people have heard of Tokyo.

But "free wi-fi" doesn't really exist here. You'll have to pay in the cafes.

I went to Asakusa it has a famous temple caleld Sensoji and there is a buolding for Asahi with a "golden flame" on top but it looks like a "golden turd" Laughing

I stayed at the Riverside Hotel its a capusule hotel so very cheap. Very Happy

Most people living in or visiting Tokyo have been been to Asakusa, it's popular with tourists for the temples and locals for the drinking establishments.

Yes, the internet cafes are 24/7.
