Last day in Tokyo for a while

20/2/2018

Today we reshot a few bits around the Shiodome and then took a train to Yanaka & visited the Cemetery & Nezu Shrine.  It didn't seem as though we did a lot photographically but we went some distance and walked a long way.  It was difficult to be creative today.
The Nezu Shrine is similar to the one situated near Kyoto. Not having seen the original I'm not sure how this compares. Seems a bit small & insignificant after seeing the massive & beautiful Tori at the Meiji Shrine.
We struggled a bit to find a restaurant tonight, trying to get into several places that didn’t seem to want us. No seats or no English menu. The little streets near our hotel are narrow and quirky with small or very small restaurants & bars. We  ended up at a Japanese Italian restaurant for dinner & had a nice time; good food & we felt welcomed. Our waitress had been to NZ on a school trip and spent a week at on a dairy farm somewhere on the North Island - we couldn’t grasp where.

We saw a lot of these - why on earth would you want out door seats that look like people sniffing each other?

Japan is obsessed with animated figures - hydrant covers no exception

    Yes, this is me.
    Most  photogs prefer to be behind the camera and I'm no exception.
    So this pic is rather old having been taken at a Ceroc ball in 2012.
