Japan 4 - Shopping, Ramen, Arcades, Swords, Tokyo Station, Pokemon, and Kyoto

 


Not impressed with the pricy Ginza 6, I agree

Ginza 6 mall

Kyushu Jangara ramen shop was our favorite


Never happen in the USA

Wealth in Ginza is often on display, Rolls SUV left


Arcade in Akihabara

Super fun

Win some fun prizes

Drum for competition






Sword Museum


Soft cushions among hardened steel

Thousands of year old swords that look new, fun fact, a samurai sword can only go through 3 people before it needs to be replaced.  Fun depending on which side of the sword you're on!







Sumo arena

About as close to sumo as we got



I loved spending our leisure morning times with you at our spot

They know how to get around Tokyo

Tokyo Station, huge and confusing




Pokemon Store Ginza

All Pokemon'd out





Shopping is exhausting!

On a Shinkansen 





The Thousand Hotel in Kyoto


Walking to a temple before we're able to check in

Higashi Hongan Ji Buddhist Temple, one of the largest wood buildings in the world


Very hot and humid in Kyoto
