12 Jan 2010 morning, Tokyo, it is raining a little bit outside. So I'm going to take one of this transparent umbrella. They are very cheap in Japan.
Today we will visit 早稻田大学 University
This is the iconic landmark for the world famous University. My friend is doing a PhD there.
Cute post office van like you normally see in a Japanese animation movie.
Two Chinese lions from Taiwan.
OK, my friend is going to have his seminar. So I will go to places I planed.
Yes, did you see the last one. It says "Toyko Tower"
Almost there...
Ascending ... Do you know that, Tokyo Tower is 10 meters higher than Eiffel tower of Paris, but 1/3 lighter.
Better facilitated and better indicated than the 'Space needle' in Seattle. I thought Space Needle was the best.
OK, it is not pollution. It is raining...
A Japanese little girl was enjoying this and was actually crawling and laughing on top of this; A Japanese little boy was accidentally led by his father, after he was aware of that, he slapped his father in the butts, and run towards his mother.
And they are both braver than me. This is as close as I can get to this viewing down deck. There is a similar transparent deck in Auckland City Tower. It was smaller than this in size, so back then I can at least take a picture of me on the edge of that.... BTW, Auckland Tower is perhaps the most beautifully designed tower among the towers I've been to.
Wax Museum
All the figure look a tiny percentage of Japanese, which is strange, but that's my impression. Which make the figures not very good if you ask me.
增上寺 temple
Which is next to the tower
It is cold and wet today, so going back for a rest.
to be continued...
