28th March
The Emperial Palace is only open 2 days of the year for people to enter, so we weren’t lucky enough to be able to go inside. We could only wonder the outside of the palace. It was a bit of a bummer that we couldn’t go inside but the outside was still good to see. Once again there were lots of beautiful well kept grounds to photograph.
After we had looked around the gardens for a while we headed to Tokyo Tower. Steve wanted to go to Akihabara which is the electronic district so he went there and Marie and I set off to find the Tokyo Tower on our own. We actually found it too – all by ourselves!! We were very proud. We went inside and discovered that there were heaps of cool museums to check out. We bought a ticket so that we could enter all of them. There was a Wax Museum, a Gallery Deluxe which had all different holograms in there, Trick Art Gallery – which had all 3D art in there (some of it was really impressive), Guinness World Record Museum, and then there was the Main Observatory. All the different Museums were very interesting to look at. We spent about 3 hours in Tokyo Tower. The view from the top of the tower was brilliant. By the time we actually got to the top it was dark but it looked cool with all the lights. There was a jazz band playing so we watched that for a while. They were really good. We left the tower at about 9:30pm and decided to head to Ueno a different part of Tokyo for dinner. This place wasn't so happening. It took us ages to find a place to eat but we eventually found one that we agreed on and it was delicious! We got back to our hotel at about midnight.

I LOVED those museums in the Tokyo Tower. They were really cool! My favourite one was the magic tricks one and I really liked the big mouth man. That one looked really cool. I hope the big mouth man didn't crunch on you too much coz that would have hurt a lot!
