Tokyo Trip Itinerary

 Tokyo  is one of the places I always wanted to visit.  I have been there when I was in elementary school and can't remember most of the things except images of those colourful Japanese cuisines.  Unfortunately I was afraid to try when I was a kid, but I definitely will not miss them again this time. This Tokyo trip takes lots of planning but it was fun.

My Itinerary


Day 1:  Arrived at Narita Airport -- Narita Express -- Shinjuku -- Hotel Century Southern Tower

Day 2:  Shinjuku -- Tsukiji Fish Market -- Ginza -- Shinjuku

Day 3:  Shinjuku -- Harajuku -- Shibuya -- Shinjuku

Day 4:  Shinjuku

Day 5:  Shinjuku -- Mitaka -- Ghibli Museum -- Shinjuku -- Roppongi -- Shinjuku

Day 6:  Shinjuku -- Asakusa -- Ueno -- Shinjuku

Day 7:  Shinjuku -- Narita Express -- Narita Airport -- Home

I expected to walk a lot, eat a lot  and shop a lot but I didn't expect the amount of sweating and reduction of appetite while walking on the streets while it is 33+ degree Celsius with high humidity.  I originally planned to visit Tokyo Station and Ikebukuro on Day 2 and Day 6 respectively but both destinations have to be cut due to our burn out of energy under the heat.  The good thing is that there was no rain for all 7 days during my stay in Japan so at least I don't have to carry my umbrella around. (Or, maybe it would've been better if it did...while we were sleeping so it wouldn't be so damn hot the next day.)
