Hello!
Just a quick blog. Last day in Japan, its been very busy. Had some brilliant experiences in Tokyo, and some not so brilliant ones. But that's what you get with everything. This blog is just two quick photos. Above is Shibuya, a VERY busy part of Tokyo, but completely amazing. Lots of lights, lots of people, lots of shops!! Its was crazy!
Nice thing about this place is the photo below. This dog is called HachikÅ. Anyone who has watched lots of Futurama will be recognising this story. This dog followed his master to the station everyday when he went to work and waited for him until he came home. Unfortunately one day his master died (a professor at Tokyo University) at work. The dog continued to go to the train station everyday for the next 10 years waiting for his master. This statue was created in his memory, as many people fed and watered him on a daily basis. I think this is a lovely story and just makes me like dogs even more! Better explanation is at wikipedia.
I will start putting some of my videos up in the next few days. Please stay tuned!!
