Round 3 - Fight!

So yesterday....yea, you probably read Colin's post about our failed venture to see some awesome Sumo matches.
We were all pumped and everything, walking for a half hour half-asleep without any food or even coffee at 6 AM. To find out all the matches scheduled for the month ended the day before.

So yeaaa, we were pretty disappointed, that is until we went to Denny's for breakfast. I've been looking forward to this all week during our stay in Tokyo. Not because the food was that great but I never been to a Denny's =P

I ordered some hamburger plate with an extra bowl of rice and miso soup. Was quite good. Also coffee...with free refills (＾▽＾)

After breakfast we headed back to the hostel, where Colin and Matt got some extra sleep while I toiled with a art sketch while I was on my caffeine high.

Once they awoke, we followed up with our new plan. To go and explore Ueno Park as well as doing a third and most likely final round of Akiba.

Like the many other parks we've been to, Ueno Park is big, it crosses several city blocks.

In the middle of the park is a large pond with a Temple built in the centre of it.



Going through the park, we encountered a number of statues as well as smaller temples.


The park also have some large museums, but many were closed that day. The Museum of Nature and Science had some displays outside though which were interesting. We also found a Rocket Launcher. XD


With Ueno Park thoroughly explored, we headed back to Akiba for some more last minute shopping. We also took the opportunity to snap some more photos of the district. Here are some photos I took the yesterday and the day before.



Today we'll finally go to some of Tokyo's landmarks. Fitting for the last proper day to explore, no?....maybe not =P
