Honeymoon & Anniversary Trip – 6th stop – Tokyo, Japan
May 17th, 2008 by Doris
After a romantic and relaxing trip in Italy, we were back to Japan. We stayed in hotel XXX in Tokyo. The hotel is located in a business area hence there isn’t anything exciting around but it gave us good and quiet night sleep. And it is easy to travel to everywhere with the metro. We haven’t got enough time to do a detailed visit in Tokyo but we managed to go to a few places, did some shopping and ate yummy food. We went into a sushi bar without knowing enough Japanese, but we managed to eat a few Oishi shasimi! On one day, we visited the Sunshine City and a Toyota exhibition (too bad we couldn’t own one); we got lost at one point but turned out we could had yummy Ramen for lunch unexpectedly 
. At night, we went dropping by famous Ginza where is known as the working and expensive district where people are properly dressed up. On another day, we visited Asakusa where is famous with the Nakamise shopping arcade, sensoji temple and the five storied Pagoda. As we were shopping, we bumped into a shop that specifically sell WHALE meat. Although there has been continuous argument regarding ban to kill whale… we anyway tried some. The price was not much more expensive than other meat and it did taste very nice. We thought the raw meat tasted better than the cooked.
After that, we took the light rail to Odaiba – Ferris wheel, Fuji television building, rainbow bridge, Venus Fort shopping mall, etc. We also did a bit of shopping there 
. We also visited other districts like shinjuku, shibuya, Akihabara (where Leo bought his MODELS), etc and there are still many places we wanted to visit. We promise we will come back!
