We took a Shinkansen train (bullet train) to Tokyo. I will miss my family as I can't see them until next time... |
Tokyo Station. |
We stayed at Hotel Metropolitan Marunouchi, located right next to the entrance to the Tokyo Station. |
The front desk in on the 27th floor of the building. |
We both were tired, so didn't do much sightseeing, just walked around the station. |
To have lunch, we went to a Hong Kong style restaurant inside the Daimaru department store. |
We ordered the porridge set and |
the Dim sum set. |
After the lunch, we went to the basement of the department store (Basement space in almost all department stores in Japan is for food - it is food heaven...). |
Japanese style rusks. |
Huge steamed pork buns. |
Warabi-mochi (a jelly-like confection made from bracken starch and covered or dipped in kinako (sweet toasted soybean flour)). |
A lunch box |
Grilled squids |
Soft serve ice cream. |
Muffins. |
Cookies. |
After some food shopping, we went back to our hotel and took a nap, then visited the Tokyo Tower. |
Here it is. |
It is almost as beautiful as the Eiffel Tower. |
A manhole cover with a cherry blossom motif. |
We came back to the hotel and ate dinner in our room. This is a futo-maki (fat sushi roll) from the department store. |
明日はいよいよ帰国です! And this is the lunch box. |
