Firstly going to apologize mum and dad for not putting up many photos but when bella gets home get her to show you a couple i have put up on facebook... only put up about 10 but the computers arent the newest...
any ways. today had a brilliant day. lazy morning went for breakfast at this small restaurant again. 300yer for a small meal very nice! then decided to walk to Ueno which took ages but walked down loads of back streets and it was ridiculously quiet. very cool and saw some normal japanese houses which are tiny and so close together! we ended up walking through this massive grave yard and finding an awesome shrine where monks pray and stuff which was very cool. there was a massive buddha and was all pretty sweet! we walked through there for ages and ended up at this tiny shrine thing where there werer 8400 statues of jizzo... some god of some kind to protect children? was like being in indiana jones... except in the middle of a city. very tranquil and wierd but so cool. there were so many statues! rows and rows of them. what ive noticed is that there are hardly any pigeons but loads of MASSIVE crows. very odd. then we ended up going to the zoo which was sweet. havbent been to a zoo in ages! bit disappointing there were no giant pandas but ling ling died in 2008 of heart failure... literally a glorious day. so sunny and was so nice to just walk through the parks and stuff away from the manic city! going to go see the old shrines again at night because they are supposed to be all lit up so should be pretty sweet! very cheap and enjoyable day!
see you later
