Japan - Day 8 (Tokyo area Senso-ji)

First off, I guess there were some earthquakes while we were in Tokyo.  Sheila felt one, but I didn't.  Obviously not too big - good thing!

Today we went to Senso-Ji Temple which is apparently Tokyo's most sacred and spectacular temple.  It survived 1923 earthquake, but not WWII. Once again it had been bombed during the war and rebuilt with cement.  It was beautiful and impressive.

This area had tons of little shops.  They are all open in the front with no doors.  They sold all sorts of things.

There were also beautiful gardens there.

We stayed there most of the morning and then got the car from the hotel and drove back home.  Tonight Steve and Lydia went to their Friday night bathing and dinner.  Sheila and I went to the PX and had pizza – yum!  Kyle went into town and had sushi – yuk!  Tomorrow Sheila and I are going out on our own back to Kamakura and Kyle is going on his own back to Tokyo.
