Day 5

Tokyo Tower Tour and Salsa Nights

Today we went on a whirlwind tour of Tokyo. Tokyo Tower was the first stop. It was modeled after the Eiffel tower but a little taller and tackier. These girls guide you into the elevator.

Tokyo from the observation deck.







A big temple. People come here and leave prayers which the priests either read or burn. I am not sure.














There was a wedding going on there. "We are lucky to see traditional Shinto wedding gown." Now you are lucky too. I hope that old dude is not the husband.


Then to the Imperial palace. The emperor is alive and well but I could not meet with him today. I can't be bothered. I took some pictures of the palace though.
