Hello from Tokyo

We have been busy here in Tokyo, we have been to see the Sensoji Temple, pictured here. Sensoji (or Asakusa Kannon Temple) is a Buddhist temple located in Asakusa. It was completed in 645 making it Tokyo’s oldest temple.

In addition, we also attended the National Sumo Tournament, pictured below. You can get a play by play of the matches by renting an English headphone set.

Sunday (today for us) we will be going to the Ghibli musuem (that’s Miyazaki’s film museum). Then, if the weather is decent, we’re going to Harajuku to see the cosplay and the Meiji Shrine.
