Rather than country hopping again for my birthday this year, I decided on one country... Japan! City specific: Tokyo. They are 11hrs ahead of Eastern Standard Time, so while we left here during day light, it shortly turned dark there after landing. It was like pitch black by 5pm. I wanted to get some culture in the first day and visit the Sensō-ji Temple; the oldest temple in Tokyo. That's a good place to start...
Hellloooo Tokyo.
If whatever city I'm visiting has a major metro system, best believe I'm on it. Can literally get anywhere and everywhere.
All over the world.
Roaming for food.
Udon, my love.
It was soooooo good.
Wu-Tang Forever.
I didn't know they had these over there.
...and to further my surprise, they all sold beer/wine and liquor.
Skytree.
Flashing Lights.
I liked the way it looked. The taste was pretty decent.
Loitering.
We've arrived at the Temple.
Kin-Ryu- the goddess statue.
the personification of the dragon God symbolizing Senso-ji.
heiwa.
At this particular part of the Temple, you pray and leave a donation in between the metal boards.
A special prayer for year 36.
kangae.
Baby.
The Colonel was closed. I would've loved to see what their chicken was hittin on.
For all my "The Wiz" fans. It was the very first thought.
Everything seemed to be closed, except a random Turkish Sis place. Oddly, they were out of meat?
Fries will do.
Wandering.
While we were on the elevator headed up to our room, I noticed... it was now 10/11, my birthday :)
Time for shenanigans! Stay tuned for Pt. 2
