 Once we got to our motel we had time to go and explore.



We found a huge festival going on.

22.11.2023 Kyoto - Shinkansen - Tokyo - Shinjuku

 We are heading back to Tokyo. I took over 100 photos of Mt Fuji so cutting it back to just these was a challenge. On the train I was lucky enough to be asked by a Japanese man to swap seats from one side of the train to the other. I got so many good photos. He was lovely and didn't want to change back to his seat the whole trip. Very grateful.








I just wouldn't like to think what would happen if this ever erupted.














Back in the station



Arrive at Shinjuku Station


The space ship billboard is amazing. I wish I could upload the video of it playing.


Then on to our motel. Hotel Gracery. Godzilla Motel.



In the foyer


The view from our room. This is the best room we have had and what a way to finish our trip.

Wow that is a tall motel
