April 11 - Ueno and Shibuya

Almost out of time on this vacation and we're also almost out of energy.

After a late start we headed over to the Ueno district to see the local market under the railway tracks. Then over to Tokyo Tower after lunch, though only the ladies went up since I used to work in an adjacent office building on the 26th floor that actually looked down on the Tower.

Finally, Saturday night was spent seeing the bright lights of the Shibuya district, including taking on the famous "Pedestrian Scramble".

We spent a while trying to find a great burger place I found last time I was in Tokyo, but I couldn't remember exactly where it was so we had to settle for a different one. Then it was one more round of Karaoke (again, no videos). The price difference between Karaoke in the backwaters of Kigoshima compared to touristy Shibuya was incredible. Our singing was still terrible, though.

Tomorrow we head home.
