As always my posts I always write them with much delayed trigger ...
now two weeks ago I went three days in Tokyo and Michael Mami. Finished work at 22.40 we went to take bus service from Osaka to Tokyo Station. Sleeping in buses, especially buses and full of old people, is certainly not the best, but certainly is cheap. The
thing more traumatic than the fact of sleeping sitting, is that all the time when you start to get to sleep c `and` stop 'at roadside restaurants and shoot you in the eye lights to warn you that you can also go to the bathroom. At 8:00 we arrived in Tokyo we went to Ikebukuro, where you will find our hotel. We took the JR train from Shinjuku station offered at the rush hour ... the incredible amount of people who `c` and `in Tokyo ... I am still upset. Once you set your bags we headed to Ikebukuro Ueno to visit the Tokyo National Museum and in particular the `Honkan, which is the Japanese art gallery where there are relics of times more ancient Japanese works of art but also recent . To visit this part we only need at least 2 hours. After the tour, Mami took us to see an exhibition of illustrated books for children at the library for the child-minding. The authors of the books were mainly of northern Europe.
finished the tour in Ueno, legs sore we headed to Asakusa to see (I for the second time) and the Sensoji to dine with the ramen.
The second day is was time to visit the Ghibli Musem of Hayao Miyazaki, the real reason for our short stay in Tokyo. The museum is very well organized and the building is amazing.
there is `a very beautiful part that plays in a realistic way the studio where he works Miyazaki, with sketches of his designs. We stayed at the museum for at least five hours, in the end we were exhausted! In the evening we went to eat at a Mexican restaurant in Shinjuku, very good and cheap.
the last day, however, after a bit of shopping we headed to Akihabara, heaven `s mail. Michael wanted buy a used computer, but then after thinking about it and thought he quit. Perhaps because it is not trustworthy character of the strange shady dealer who wanted to sell him? that did not inspire me at all! After a coffee at Starbucks we went to Jimbocho, the district library ... there are so many and there are many ancient books. We went in a small library of Italian books, but of course we arrived just in time for closure. The clerk, however, and has been kind and despite continually had to chase away the many customers who came, made us stay there for a `less than half an hour more than the other, closing time. But a store can close at 18.00? Of course, with the haste I could not buy I regret nothing and is here in Osaka because `my dreams a library Italian!
Reluctantly we went out and went to make a walk through the neighborhood, where I will definitely be `why` hiding places, such as ukiyo-e print shop.
Late on the Roadmap, we set out for the Sardinian restaurant where we had an appointment with a personal family friend who works for a year in Tokyo. We ate in a restaurant kitchen .... Sarda! All fish, really good!
With dinner we are still on the stomach to take bus rides that nearly lost, not knowing doce it stop! I continue to reiterate
make long journeys by bus will be 'too cheap ... but destroys really!
