Japan Tokyo Gotemba Trip Day 1- 19062010

Landed at Japan (in Ueno)

We have stopped at Ueno on our first day (With a pretty tired mind and body - as usual, you will not get a good sleep on the flight). Decided to went to Asakusa since it is closer and I guess there are a few attractions that we could go to at that same area. :) (Yupe there are like Keminarimon, Sensoji Temple as well as Nakamise shopping street there.)

More Photos after the jump...

As usual we pretty much go around the Japan area via their train transit. :)

Here come the train. :)

Finally we are HERE!!! :"D

I always amaze and love this "Remen" red hugh lantern.

There is a lot of people there. (Yup a lot of shops along the way into the temple)

Yeah, this is the signboard of the street

And also there is some pretty rusty building there as well.

LB enjoying her ice cream cake.

This is a kinder garden actually. Just realize that there is a no photograph sign there. ~:"|

We are at the Sensoji temple. (And yes another red hugh lantern) - Think I just attracted to all this high lantern. :)

LB getting a shoot here. :)

Inside the Sensoji Temple.

Helping out the believers on their inquiries

Guess everything is good as stated on the paper. :)

Yeah the uncle in the counter turn away when he noticed that I am going to take a shoot. Too bad. :"P

LB inside the temple.

A lot of people is there as well. (Trying to get rid of the bad luck) :"D

And here as well. They are like trying to get the smoke towards them (front and back)

One final shoot on the hugh remen lantern. Yup the wording is different on the back

Oh... One of the statue that we found here. :"D

Yeah, we get 2 green teas from this lady here. :")

And finally back and check into the Ueno hotel. (yeah it is one of the window at the hotel lobby)

Guess that's all for day 1. I think I will continue my posting when I am back to Penang. I think it is better that way. I still didn't feel that comfortable doing my photo processing on this laptop. ~:"| (The level confidence that I have on the color accuracy on the screen is not that high actually, hehe...) :"P

Anyway, I hope that you all will enjoy the photos so far. And I hope that everybody is alright at Malaysia. :") Cheers.
