Travel Day (yesterday)

We took the Shinkansen from Osaka to Tokyo. I listened to my iPod most of the time, discovering that Laurie Anderson's "O Superman" goes surprisingly well with the rice paddies and electric towers that went whizzing by. I actually got to see Mt. Fuji as we passed it. I don't know how I missed it the first time. It looks like a stereotypical mountain that a 5th grader would paint in a picture. It was symmetrical, capped with snow and surrounded by clouds.

We walked around Shinjuku after checking into the Keio Plaza Hotel. I found some rare Neil Innes CD's at a used record store so it worked out well for me.

This is our last day here and then we pack to head home...
