Don't know if it's a trend but so many families out in the hotel dining area this morning and it's a Saturday. Usually it's very quiet at this hour. Ended up locking myself out because I forgot to my key card so had to go to reception and it was peak checkout time too... Original...
Decided to sit somewhere different today instead of facing Ueno Park, now same view as my room. Almost forgot my key card this morning ^^; Plan was to tour Weathering with You spots around Tabata and Shinjuku but very heavy rain. Weather Girl must be off today but might still man...
Been capturing morning time lapses and this morning's sunrise turned out good... Until a fly appeared at one point somehow outside the window. Otherwise clear skies, a fairly warm day. Bought this Suntory Tennensui brand of water marketed with Suzume and Shinkai's other movies. T...
Not such an early start today since I'm just walking around Tokyo to tour some more Shinkai movie spots; mix of Weathering with You/Tenki no Ko and Your Name. People sure finish their breakfast quickly, a lot of business people in suits. View feels pointless when you're doing tha...
Off to the Your Name, Tateishi Park today. Early morning so I could have more time to explore the place. Got up at half 5 to head to the station. The Azusa Limited Express is only available from Shinjuku so wanted to get there before rush hour. Despite being the first train of th...
Thought I'd sleep like a log since couldn't sleep on the plane but only actually managed an hour. Upside was I forgot to set the camera's time so the time lapse wouldn't have happened if I didn't get up to correct it. Cloudy so no sun visible but not bad. Had breakfast around hal...
So Japan's finally opened up again and tourists are flocking over. Me included and I decided to pick a flight to arrive on Sunday so that I can kick off my trip on a weekday when the natives are all at work. This is my second time here. They didn't have much Anime on the flight b...
So today was the day we fly back to UK but, we still had a morning free before heading off to the airport - well, whole afternoon really but didn't want to join the rush hour trains carrying luggage... These were the manned stations you have to go through instead of the regular gates if you want to use your JR Pass. Thing is, not all exits have...
Note: The location hunting wasn't done in order and this wasn't a full day dedicated to 5cm location hunting. You will see the local areas too. Photos are also cropped to match the way they're depicted in the Anime but if you click on them, you can see the uncropped photos. A Goo...
The new hotel was quite far away from the city this time in Kamata (around 30 mins train from Tokyo) but, I chose it because it was very close to Shinagawa Station where the Narita Express stops to go to the airport....
