Yamanote line

Take it easy because I'll not write about my family's life :-) because I didn't write the title wrong, surely :-)

Yamanote line does a loop around the metropolis and I stopped at Shibuya where there is a statue in honor to Hachikô but it's not easy to take a picture without anyone around :-)

While drinking a coffe I took a picture of Shibuya crossing

Then I went to Ueno to take a lunch based on tofu at Sasa-no-Yuki
Look at my foot without shoe at bottom :-)
Finally something funny happened after asking to a woman: where is Sasa-no-yuki ?
She pointed a house and said It's there it's written !!!!

So clear !!! :-)

Sakura (桜)

Or cherry-blossom therefore not so lost in translation if you don't ask anything to God :-)
Back to sakura its peak happens from end of March and beginning of April but it's better for me and you stop writing and let them explain by themselves :-)






Lost in translation

It's not a remake of the movie because  Scarlett isn't nearby... unfortunately :-( but some movie's scenes were taken at Shinjuku therefore it explains the post's title :-)

But after going to Tsukiji Fish Market....

....and taking a japanese breakfast

How could I get it ? It was a piece of cake with a help from my personal tourist guide because nobody does it better :-)

Nihon

After completing half century, I guess it´s time to know the place where my ancestors came from because I'm not sure that there will be another half one. Maybe I missed the starting gun  :-)


The starting and ending point is Tokyo but I read that one of the main rules of Japanese accommodation is don't surprise them. So the route is designed but not traced ....yet:-)

And the next post will  delay due to the long journey. So patience will be necessary including for me  :-)

By the way, Nihon is one of the ways that japaneses call their country name

It works :-)

By trusting in a New Zealand t-shirt advice

 and also by paying a promise made before I moved toward Cotijuba island where there is a deactivated prision in front of the port.


The fresh water beach choosen was Vai Quem Quer whose translation could be Go anyone who wants

... to drink some water :-)
