Third try to write the blog. Let us see if the iPhone eats this one.
Caught 6:40 Rapid to Tokyo-eki (station) for Shinkansen tickets. Departing at 07:33 on Wednesday morning. Means catching the 5:40 Rapid to Tokyo to arrive in time to grab a bite to eat and board without rushing.
Today's agenda: Odaiba. We took the Yurikamome across the Rainbow Bridge to get to Odaiba proper. The view the train provides is spectacular.
In Odaiba, we headed over to see the replica of the Statue of Liberty there, then wandered through Odaiba Park. There we encountered the 1:1 Gundam erected for the Gundam celebration on the 11th.
We continued our meanderings through the park until we hit the other side of the island. There we turned around and made our way back near the Odaiba station. Lunch was Viking style Chineese (read: all-you-can-eat buffet). Good food that Warren claimed was "authentic". After lunch, properly worn down from 3 hours of walking in the beating sun, we returned to Sakura.
From the balcony of the Chinese restaurant. We rested up at the apartment for an hour or so before heading over to the Beisia for supplies. Warren cooked up a wonderful shrimp dish with rice and vinegared garlic cucumber. Good day. Tiring day. Tomorrow, Shinkansen to Kyoto!
