tokyo

Well, Tokyo is cool.
This picture is of Shibuya crossing. Lots of people, lots of movement. Exciting.

This is in Harajuku. The street is called Takeshita Dori. Lots of very fashion conscious Tokyoans frequent this spot. Saw some interesting things. That's Sarah, Ikumi and me in the picture.
















This is Nakamise-dori, the market place leading up to Senso-ji, a Buddhist temple. Lots of fun souvenirs for sale.
This is at Senso-ji. These are fortune papers. What you do is you rattle around this big metal cylinder and then pull out a stick with a number on it. Then you open up the drawer that has the corresponding number on it and take out one of the fortune papers and tie it onto this rack. I did it. My fortune was unfortunate. Bad news. I have a lot to look forward to this year.

















This is the Japanese knock-off of the Eiffel Tower. It's a radio tower, or something. It has an observation deck that lets you see all of Tokyo. Very cool. We came here on Christmas Eve and it was busy. So we didn't go to the top on that day. But...














...we came back a few days later. This is a picture facing Northwest. Roppongi, Shinjuku are included. I wish I could point it out for you, but that is beyond me. I took pictures from every angle, so maybe one day I will organize it and will have a panoramic view of Tokyo. I would really enjoy that, I think. So maybe it will be coming soon.

Well, that's all for now. I hope the one person who reads this enjoys this post.
