Outbound plane
Our steed to take us to our first international adventure!
Self Service
A note indicating that between meals, snacks on the plane were self-service.
Big Box
A shopping center near our AirBnB in Takadanobaba. We always intended to check it out but never did.
First Day Breakfast
We had breakfast here on our first day, as we were still getting our bearings.
Our first statue
Found in Kudanzaka Park near the Imperial Palace, and the first statue we ran across.

We meet Japanese vending machines
The group is generally impressed by the Japanese drink vending machines. They are everywhere!
Linus photographs vending machines
The whole group photographs vending machines
While I took a picture of the group, which is much better of course.

This doesn't fit
Not quite sure what this was (electrical transformer, maybe?), but it was certainly out of place in the grove of trees.
