Tokyo Station

Its always interesting when we get closer to Tokyo how things change.  The amount of people at the Tokyo train station (which isn't even the busiest train station) is insane.  There is barely any room to see signs on the walls or stop to breathe because people are walking in every direction.   And this was a Sunday afternoon, I can't even imagine how busy it gets during weekday rush hour.  But also the amount of white and English speaking people increases greatly!  We no longer feel like we are the only ones in Japan after visiting downtown Tokyo.

Seth and Kelly have been reading the Lonely Plant Japan to get ideas for while they are here.  Under dangers there are only two listed.  One is the obvious, earthquakes, they have their own section.  But the second danger isn't pick pocketing or disease but rather a warning to avoid the train stations at rush hour haha  And we do!

Here's a picture of Marley at one of the Tokyo Station signs
