Today we visited a nice shrine that stands in the middle of a large swamp with many tamed turtles getting a sun tan! We also walked to Toudai (Tokyo University), the most prestigious and known university in Japan. The architecture of this university was very European. We were to shy to talk to some of the students.
We also walked to Akihabara, the electronics district of Tokyo, a sanctuary for geeks!
Akihabara is not as surprising in the first visit. You have to go back a few times and discover the little shops and capsule hotels that are quite discreet, but when you find you are in for some surprises!
The highlight of this visit in Akihabara was finding Quebec's national Poutine! (puuchin in Japanese).
These days we are walking around the city about 8 hours a day so in the evening we are so dead we just rent movies at Tsutaya and watch them at the hostel.
