Ueno visual image tour

花園稻荷神社 (Japanese shrine) in Ueno Park.

Note how sincere the guy is praying.

A small annonymous shrine in Ueno Park

Street Performers in the Park.

This guy was so funny. It was a replay of the ping-pong skit (for those of you that have watched the famous Japanese show).

Ueno Zoo

I didn't actually go visit the zoo because I didn't have enough time. (Note the stripping of girls occuring around the bottom left corner)

A street sign that says "Yushima Tenshin" (Yushima God).

This is as close as I got to the Yushima jinja. I knew that I was really close because all the streets in that area had this sign....but I just can't find the actual temple!! *sob* So I took a picture of the sign instead *sigh*

Ichi-Ran in Atre Ueno.

See how the seats are in the restaurant. You sit in the cubicle with your assigned number and there are dividers between you and the person next to you.

There's a personal cold water tap in the cubicle which comes really handy when you are eating hot and spicy ramen. To the left of the tap is instruction sheet in English on how to use the ordering system (it can be tricky for someone that's there for the first time).

Ramen from Ichi-Ran

with Tonkatsu soup base, green onions, BBQ pork, and spicy powder. It's REALLY good.

Narita Express (NEX) back to the airport.
