Tokyo Prt 2

Hello Blog,

First I`ll show you some photos from the end of our Kyoto Trip- The first is the last temple we visited. There are thousands of big orange Tori gates that make a path up a moutain. Very impressive.



The second is part of the entrance to the temple
Now Tokyo! I cant really comprehend how big tokyo is. I think it is really is just to big to properly grasp. Because it feels like any big city. Well what we have seen so far has. I think what is remakable is that it is like any big city but 10 times as big... I dunno, we are going on a bus tour tomorow, so i think after that I should have a slightly better grasp of the situation.

This is a very unrepresentive picture of Tokyo. It really doesnt show the sea of people or the 80 metre tall lcd moving billboards. Ill try and take one in focus tomorow night
We met up with my friend Maruna today. It was lovely to see her. She has been in Tokyo for the last month.
This is what beer is served in in Japan.
