Tokyo 2

After landing at Haneda Airport and facing a 13 hour layover, we took the monorail and train into the Shinjuku district of Tokyo. Thank God we have Braeden with us as he is our navigator extraordinaire. The amount of train and subway lines here is mind boggling but he figured out where we needed to go. The Shinjuku area contains hundreds and hundreds of restaurants and bars, the majority being little hole in the wall type places that would hold no more than 10. We ate at a small place that had an ordering system that was as confusing as hell, all in Japanese. We figured it out after a whole lot of pointing and gesturing with the proprietor and it turned out to be a pretty good meal of assorted noodles. Tokyo is really, really crowded and a little intimidating due to the language barrier, but I could see coming back and spending a lot more time here.Meer informatie
