Today was a day of Japanese wildness. Embracing everything Japanese before we came home (except maid cafes... We aren't embracing those apparently).
It was pretty sardine like.
We were off for the fish market round two. We were going to try a different place (mainly as our "place" had a 20 deep queue) but after going in somewhere else we felt we were cheating on our first love. So we returned at 8am for a sushi breakfast - and bought commemorative mugs.

Then after sushi, we went through "old Tokyo" although it wasn't that old. It started with the Ueno park. Very hot. Lots of museums, which we would hav gone in if we had had time. Not.
We did see some Tokyo 2020 work starting though.
We even did the standard Japanese photo pose to endear ourselves to the natives.

We saw a temple and a cemetery and some other shizzle. Below is a temple to the God of strong legs!
Then we walked to a station popular with trainspotters. We spotted none but took some more culturally representative photos.
Then off to Shibuya crossing - the busiest crossing in the world. We went during the day and - as it is close to our hotel - in the evening too.
Between these two photos we managed to try some more Japanese cuisine. Some of which was not to Clare's likings
