Let Fukuoka and Kyushu: back to Tokyo
Today is a beautiful sun, and the landscape looks even more beautiful
The journey today is quite long, have six hours of shinkansen to Tokyo. We arrive early afternoon, the sky is beautiful and we seem to go home. After 14 days around Japan I must admit that I missed in Tokyo, a city very charming.
We're going to go down, we arrived in Tokyo
We are in Tokyo, we salute our Hikari
Ends Today our Japan Rail Pass, and this is the last shinkansen of our adventure. I miss it ...
How can you not love him? ...
Let's take the Yamanote, making even to this day our JRPass
We are in the Shinagawa area, close to Gotanda station. Our ryokan is located in the midst of many brand-new skyscrapers, is tender because it is a tiny little house and it seems a survivor among the buildings of the future. The owners of the ryokan speak only Japanese, but we understand each other. It 's the most traditional ryokan where we were, the door of the room consists of a partition wall of wood and paper and the bathroom is to the Japanese. I love it!
We are in Tokyo! That good feeling
The neighborhood near the station Gotanda makes us a better impression
Among beasts and towering skyscrapers you can find our ryokan ...
late lunch and go to Yoshinoya in Shibuya because I could not wait to return! Let's take a ride on the Tokyu Hands and Shibuya 109, then go to Harajuku and Omotesando. Now that I have an extra suitcase I can do some 'shopping without too many sacrifices!
Traffic in Shibuya
After 14 days around Japan there is even more clear that Tokyo is a city truly unparalleled
A cat cafe!
colors, signs and shops of Shibuya
girls taken from shopping
shops where you can find everything
The sky in Tokyo, beautiful ... and now there is not even a cloud
Sun (a little 'less warm than usual) is reflected in the buildings
From Starbucks waiting to see the stream of people cross the intersection of Tokyo's most famous
Just to give you an idea ...
We Harajuku
One of the crazy shops in Harajuku!
Here even the food is no joke, these pancakes are mouth-watering!
In this dish are a showcase exaggerated ...
In Harajuku there are several Italian restaurants, including pizza and pasta are spoiled for choice
A candy store, beer and mash!
From Kiddyland (Omotesando) is the legendary Snoopy Town
Tonight we eat at an Italian restaurant a good pizza!
take advantage of attractive prices and we stopped to dine at the break (the Italian restaurants are usually quite expensive)
The pizza is not bad!
A bit 'sad also because this day is ending, back to the ryokan is not too late because it closes at midnight. Lay out the futons that are comfortable, the pillows are too soft! A nice hot bath and go to sleep: tomorrow is our last day in Tokyo.
The lights of Tokyo at night
Our ryokan!
The futon is ready, good night!
