    Asakusa day 2

    August 24, 2017 in Japan ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    It's 34 degrees and humid today (weather app says it feels like 41). I've bought my breakfast from the Family Mart and it was OK. Coffee at Starbucks (I walked past it ok, give me a break jeez!) Walked through the Asakusa shopping streets, then off to the adjoining parkland that contains the Senso-ji Buddhist temple and other temples. No photos allowed inside the temples.
    Bought some GF cakes from Otaca Sweets, should be interesting.

    My data SIM is operational so I'm connected! Have bought a Pasmo card, which is like a Go Card on steroids. It can be used in vending machines as well as on all trains in Greater Tokyo.
