pictures say a thousand words

this is my first weekend in Japan...so must fully utilised it....didnt have anything planned for the weekend in tokyo coz initially, i wanted to go to hakone abut all the rooms are fully booked..so ended up spending in tokyo lo...on weekend, went to yokohama...then today, went sight-seeing around tokyo....it was fun...:) it was such a looOoooong day....am too tired to write abt it...but here are some of the pics i took....im sure pictures say a thousand words....enjoy
  • this is the full view of yokohama...it's near the ocean..love the place coz it feels so relaxing and less crowded..felt like i was back in perth :)

  • this is the outside of imperial palace of japan...it's huge..and it's humble...the garden is very nice...but somehow, i wonder if the royal family ever spends anytime to walk around there? look so boring unless u have a lot of friends visiting...my friend asked me if i wanna stay in the palace...i stopped for a while and went..."NAHHhhhh"

  • just opposite the old looking imperial palace...there's the city of tokyo....hhmm...huge contrast right?
  • this is the main entrance of sensijo temple...very grand and very the crowded...inside, i was thrilled with lots of little stalls selling all sorts of food and sourvenirs....and even kimonos....

  • this is my work of art...i took this pic at the garden...it's sooOooo pretty...i havent seen any cherry blossom yet..but at least got "mei hua" to see :)
