Tokyo - Tokyo Friday Here I am! (Well, I show that my connection from time to time but hey, I'm looking forward to finalizing this post without problem). All
first bad start: for my trip to the station (30 minutes walk), it Drach. At a point where qu'arrivée at the station I changed pants (I had planned the coup, I'm not stupid). In this regard, note that all stations here have free and clean toilets! On the way to the station, I managed to lose a scarf that mom gave me before I left, so I Ralais ferme. Trajet vers Osaka: no problem. Je suis à l'heure pour le Shinkansen, il arrive. Pas très impressionnant, au final. Confortable? Ah, on a de l'espace pour les jambes et un large couloir. Mais ils ont prévu les sièges pour les culs des japonais(es), c'est à dire un peu trop étroit pour moi, l'accoudoir me génait. On ne rit pas !
Arrivée à Tokyo, rien n'allait comme prévu : impossible de trouver la carte Suica que je voulais utiliser dans les transports, et la ligne que j'avais prise a sauté la station où je voulais m'arrêter. Enfin, tout est bien qui fini bien, ça n'était pas très grave, j'ai trouvé la carte (trop génial, fini les prises de tête !) et mon chemin sans problème. Premier arrêt: Senso-ji.
Il y avait un monde terrible. Mais j'ai vraiment aimé. Je ne m'attendais pas à ce que ça soit aussi sympa.
A l'entrée du temple, il y a une rue commerçante, Nakamise-dori, avec pleins de petites échoppes.
J'ai pu trouvé 2 yukatas (habits traditionnels japonais), un pour Aline et un pour maman (pas de photos, je leur laisse la surprise!). Ensuite, direction le musée National de Tokyo :
The sun was on our side! It was a pleasant surprise because it was not announced. I think I still had my 20 ° today. Otherwise, not very impressive museum. Yes, there are pretty things, but it is not enough teaching (no audio guide, not enough explanations ...). And well, compared to the Louvre and the British Museum, there's no picture (right confess, there's still stuff in the museum that I would have stuck with me ...). There is a nice park at the rear. ^ _ ^
I am frightened by the size of crows here:
front of the museum, is Ueno Park. I was surprised, since morning to see a crowd.
What's this? Homeless people (all people in the photo!) Coming to a food distribution ... Sad reality.
Then, finally, Akihabara:
As usual level electronics, media player, the choice is limited. But there's a financial benefit by buying the template that I had spotted in Belgium. So maybe I'll go tomorrow to see if a seller speaks English (it's not earned!). Otherwise, I fell on a shop that sold Ghibli goodies: to fall down. What a choice! And frankly it was superb. But I'm limited to this:
Trooooooop cute! At almost 900 yen anyway (~ 7 € 30). Then Y'avait goodies Square Enix as well, but I resisted. But I still fell for it (~ 6 € 50):
Well, for my friends fans of anime and manga: I'm sorry, but I have no plans to bring such memories (level funding, given the number of people, it's hot, and I am afraid of doing so jealous I do not prefer not). And then the choice is not very great, even here, compared to what I had seen in Europe. But hey, you can order telling me what you want and the price you want to (hurry up, I'm not long in Tokyo!).
In the end, I'm in my hotel! Tomorrow for new adventures!
