TOKYO 09 - Day 16
Time to go back...
Ray sleeps in the ATL airport--the second of two particularly long layovers:

TOKYO 09 - Day 15
I was super sick and had not even planned on going on today's trip. I thought that I should stay in so that I wouldn't get even worse. But I went anyway. We were going to a place that I had never been before, so I had to go, in spite of the rain.
I was so sure that I wasn't going on the trip that I forget to get my camera. I had to steal all of these from Ray.
Here's the ride to Odaiba:
We went to Miraikan, the Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (future museum)
The View from Decks & Aqua City:
Little Hong Kong:
Dove takes a ride:
Dove and Jason pose for Ray from inside an odd mexican restaurant (that had neither beans nor cheese):
That's Rainbow Bridge in the background.

We took the student to the Zoo in Ueno Park.
We then walked around Ueno.

TOKYO 09 - Day 13
The Tokyo National Museum, which has always been cool, was a complete bust. There was no special exhibition while we were there, the awesome tea gardens were closed, and 75% of the permanent collection was closed. It was in this museum that I first found my favorite Japanese ice-cream treat: Coolish.
A second story hot-dog shop in Akihabara with a traditional Japanese Christmas Lump.
At about 4" high, taking up about 1/4 of the entire restaurant, the Christmas Lump was actually closer to our table than I.

TOKYO 09 - Day 12
It's a free day for the students (except for the Visual Development for Theme Design students--they have gone to Tokyo Disney: a sort of replica of DisneyLand), so Ray and I walk to the Japanese Sword Museum close to Yoyogi Park.
Then we walked around, finding several temples.
This was outside the Bunka Gakuen Costume Museum.
Shinjuku in general:
