Roppongi

Today we took a class trip to Roppongi to visit an art gallery. Roppongi is roughly in the middle of Tokyo (almost directly between Shinjuku and Shibuya) and I was delighted to find that the museum was at the TOP of one of the tallest buildings around.


From the top floor we were able to see a *fantastic* panorama of the city. Facing south I managed to capture a shot of Tokyo bay:

Tokyo Tower can be seen on the left, and the Rainbow Bridge in the distance to the right.

After our trip through the museum we explored some of the area around the building.

A cool fountain outside the nearby apartments.

A playground!

A bizarre spider creature!

When our exploring was done, Gary sent us off on a bizarre assignment: finding and photographing "life in Akihabara".
