Ryokan Fugi |
We arrived in Tokyo. Wow that was a long flight, I managed to have a sleep and watch 2 films,
Kite Runner and
I am Legend. We nearly fell asleep on the train out to Koiwa where our traditional Ryokan was located.
It's quite overwhelming getting across Tokyo for a Westerner, its so colourful and bright. The scene from Lost in Transalation is about right the senses are assaulted, the sights the sounds and smells.

Ueno park cherry blossom |
We managed to have a round of the Cherry Blossom in Ueno it was late in the day but it was very beautiful. Many people were picnicking under the trees enjoying the outside.
