Today we called at Tokyo, arriving just at 8 am in the morning. We just cleared under the bridge, and were greeted by drummers at the Port building.
Our tour had been cancelled - so we took the shuttle bus to the Ginza area and walked to the Sky Bus (purple route) which took us around past the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Tower. It was raining on and off, so we had a coffee in Strabucks, got some money at the Post Ifiice, and did a spot of retail therapy on the way back to the shuttle.
A rather nice modern city, everyone very helpful. We are here until tomorrow morning, and we leave for Osaka then to continue our tour of Japan.
