Thank you for staying wih us!
I think had a great trip around JAPAN!


Last week I went to the Observatory at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building!! I have been there a couple of times but it was my first time to go up to the observatory on the 45th floor!
The building has two towers and I have chosen the southern tower. It takes only 55 seconds from the ground floor to the 45th floor. How fast!! And there is no entrance fee. How nice:)
I fear of the height actually....Do you know how high it is? The height is 202 meter from the ground! WOW. From there you can see Tokyo Tower, Roppongi Hills, Tokyo Dome, even Mt Fuji if you go there on a sunny day.
There is a cafe on the same floor. How about drinking caffee with beautiful view?

Thank you for your stay at the Oak Hotel. Hopefully, we will see you again :)

Busy Japanese salarymen, families going out on picknick, and why not, busy hotel staff on our short breaks, that's it - obentou is the word. They can range from 300 yen onwards, all the way to the expensive one on this picture, available to yours truely only by personal kindness of one of our guests the other day. People without experience in Japanese food would be hard pressed to figure just what is it that this stuff is made of. Even myself can not name (nor fathom) what some of the items might be, but the visual effect is there all the same I presume. Ohh, food, one of the big reasons I find it harder and harder to imagine living anywhere but here...
