We spent Morgan's last night in Japan in Tokyo. We got a room for the night at the New Sanno. After we checked in we headed out to Tokyo Tower for a nighttime view of the city.
On our first subway that night we got on right by the driver's cabin. So, Garytt got a good look at how things work on the business end of the subway. They also had all the doors between cabins open, so we were able to look from the back to the front...it was pretty weird watching the front twist and turn ahead of us.
Once again, the summer haze blocked a lot of our distant views. But, it was still cool to see just how much city is right there in the few miles we could see. The view below is at the 500 foot mark.
Rainbow Bridge is in the distance |
Our only family photo during Morgan's entire trip. |

The view from 820 feet.
It was pretty neat seeing the city from that high! Hopefully, next time we can get a look without the haze. Supposedly, on a clear day you can see Fujisan from up there. We will see...
We had a fabulous visit with Morgan. Of course, it went entirely too fast. We could have used a few more days to squeeze in a few more boring "you are now an adult" talks. :) The kids had a blast sharing the new things they have experienced with their big sister. They REALLY enjoyed her taking them to the park every day...something Mom doesn't do as much as they want. We miss ya Miss Mo!!!! Can't wait to see you in the Spring!
At Narita, heading off to navigate the airways on her own! And, she made it from Japan to Korea to Georgia all on her own!!! Proud Momma here!!! Love ya! <3 |
