Kyoto to Tokyo - Japan Spring 2008
Kyoto to Tokyo
Monday 24th March 2008
Got the Shinkansen from Kyoto back to Tokyo. A few pictures of Odaiba, where our hotel for the next two nights was, plus a night out with Tanaka-san in Asakusa (but just the one picture!).

| 12:39:34 Kyoto station, which its rather impressive high ceiling. | 12:39:41 A bit of Kyoto tower seen through the side of the station. | 16:53:47 A rather pointless picture taken from the Yurikamome line which goes from central Tokyo (ish) to the island of Odaiba. |

|
| 16:54:25 Chie looking unhappy, I think about the fact we'd neglected to buy a 1-day travelcard. | 16:55:32 ....another underwhelming picture from the Yurikamome. | 16:55:44 ....that's a bit better- can clearly see the Rainbow Bridge here, albeit a bit murky. |
|
|
|
| 16:56:05 ....even better still. | 17:04:34 Entrance to our hotel. | 17:14:31 View from our hotel room. |

|
| 18:00:40 Errr.... the corridor. | 18:00:51 There are few opportunities in life to sit down in a lift. I say when one such opportunity presents itself, you should take it. | 19:32:26 In the evening I went out around Asakusa with my friend Tanaka-san, although this is the only picture I took all evening! |

| 23:51:34 On the way back to Odaiba after my night out, some crappy night shots from the Yurikamome... | 23:51:54 Hmmmm. | 23:54:24 ...can see the Rainbow Bridge lit up here. |

| 23:56:53 ....close up on one part of the illuminated bridge - but this picture is really a bit underwhelming compared to seeing the real thing. |
