just arriving to Tokyo the night before. You grab your big backpack, and head off to see the city. Since you are meeting your friend Shannon for lunch at 2, you have some time to get there. You go and rent a car, and stop at every shop, most people there speak some English, enough to let you buy a souvenir. You stop at the Ueno Zoo, and visit only about a quarter of the animals there. Looking at the clock, you realize it is about 10 o'clock, so you have about four more hours to visit the city. Driving for about 10 minutes, you reach the Tokyo Imperial palace. Good thing you brought a light load, because you end up exploring the endless gardens, and temples for a good two hours. After that you go to the Edo- Tokyo Museum and look at the amazing sculptures, and art. You look at your watch and realize you are ten minutes late! You get in the car and quickly make you way over to the Hakushu restaurant where Shannon will be waiting. Where would you visit in Tokyo?
Hi Olivia! I really liked your post! You used great words to transport me into your journey in Japan! Based on your post, you might want to check out my blog post. You also might want to check out what's going on with your picture... Anyways, a great post!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your post, Olivia! If I were in Tokyo, I would first go to the Cherry Blossom Festivals. The Cherry Blossom is a symbol of Japan. They bloom from late March to early April so I would be sure to visit in that time range. It looks so beautiful in pictures and it looks like a pink dusting in snow! Can you imagine? Next, I would go to the Yoyogi Park. It would top it off to take a hike and people watch. Listening to their language would be extremely interesting.
