Tokyo Day 5: Final Tokyo Night






After an awesome experience at Sengaku-ji, we made our way back to Sengaku-ji station and headed back towards Hanzomon station.

We had to have one last metro scare before arriving to our "final destination" (everyone kept asking us where our "final destination" was going to be throughout the trip - I must admit it was a little weird hearing that because of the movie)...

at Sengaku-ji station we both hopped on the line taking us back towards Hanzomon, but for some reason Syl decided she needed to walk to another part of the subway car instead of staying near the door we had entered into... well this seemed okay - until we reached the next stop and we realized that rush hour had just begun... very quickly a flood of Japanese entered the car and smashed up against each other until no more could fit inside... needless to say - I couldn't see her at all... and even though I had repeated the name and number of our next stop - I wasn't sure if she remembered... up until now I was able to see her and motion when it was time... there were about six station stops between our entrance and when we needed to exit and lucky for us the station right before our stop most of the people jumped off...

as we both sighed relief - we exited the next stop and made our way to Hanzomon...

we walked back to our hotel, took our things to the room, and went downstairs to the Patio restaurant for one last meal... we ate the Margherita Pizza that we had the first night we had arrived in Tokyo and some spring rolls...

later we headed back upstairs to the tenth floor, relaxed, watched TV, and slowly finished off the last of our vending machine/convenience store buys we had in our refrigerator... including an interesting peach soda, jello, snack corn sticks, and an awesome melon cream soda (not sure why I waited to try this one - it was really good)...
