Welcome to Tokyo

Finally made it to Tokyo, our last stop on this Japan holiday. We have an amazing hotel in a pretty swanky part of Tokyo. The entry "foyer" is something like 11 stories high inside all lined with huge glass windows, granite and steel. We have an interesting view from our window of a spot where four train lines come together.
We are also near a fantastic park area right on the edge of Tokyo Bay. Originally the site of a holiday palace it is now a green break from the ultra modern Tokyo. In it's center lies a tea house perched over the lake, here is the closest we have come to a Japanese tea ceremony.
