U.S. players with the BEST U-20 WWC team liaison in all of Japan, Hiromi!http://sitelife.ussoccer.com/ver1.0...acf5ba94-7b7a-4778-b003-5c40db37364f.Full.jpg

The U.S. U-20 WNT players had their first chance to get a good look at Tokyo today on a short shopping excursion to and near the Shibuya area of Tokyo, i.e., right smack in the middle of the hustle and bustle.

The players had a good time doing some souvenir shopping but most of the stores might have been a bit high end for these college students. Most of the players also partook in a crepes and ice cream treat that wrapped the crepe up like a cone and stuffed all kinds of goodness into them.

No moms, it didn't ruin their dinner.

The Shibuya ward, one of 23 special wards in Tokyo, has a population density of 13,540 persons per square kilomoter. Anchorage, Alaska, home to U.S. forward Kelly Cobb, has a population density of 22.8 persons per square kilometer.
