Checking out the map in Narita Airport

Cool, Dad! A double-decker train. Mason likes
the Keisei Skyliner train. We take the JR Narita
Express instead

The first morning after a long's day travel to Tokyo.
Jet Lag = 3 a.m. in the morning pictures.

..so jetlaggers head off to one of the largest fish
markets on the planet.

Looking pretty good for being rained on, jetlagged,
and almost run over about 6 times by Japanese
forklift drivers

Got Fish?

How many pictures do you think this guy ends up
in?

Sakana = Japanese for fish

JoAnn favorite sign is still there

Where's Waldo? Mason stands amid the busiest
train station in the world - approx 2 million peope
a day go through Shinjuku-eki.

Mason wants to make green tea. When in Rome...

....eat at the Hard Rock Tokyo!

Mason with Tokyo Tower in the background.
The Tiger Cub Travel Bug came along for the
trip!

Outside Shibuya-eki. This is Hachiko Crossing,
named for Japan's most loyal canine.

Hachiko waited at this train station for this master
every day - even for years after the master's death!

Hachiko crossing is the busiest pedestrian crossing
in the world. Mason tries for himself, in the rain

The previous day's rain yields a rare and incredible
site. Mt. Fuji is only rarely seen from Tokyo.

Mason tries the bumps-in-the-road that help
guide Japan's blind through the subway stations

Mason at the Meiji Shrine, just outside Harajuku-eki

Huge taiko (japanese drum) in the shrine

Mason takes a breather at the entrance to the
shrine

Sake barrels as an offering at the shrine

Can you pick out the tourist? Mason awaits
one of Tokyo's many subway trains
