Me and Plastic Sushi

Strolling down the streets of Tokyo you see tons of displays like this one filled with plastic sushi.

What a great way to play my favorite game "point and eat" and what an easy way to order sushi when you don't speak the language.

A cup of coffee in Tokyo can run you $7 but the price for sushi is comparable to US prices. So while in Japan EAT SUSHI. We did breakfast, lunch and dinner! YUM!!!
At this temple you buy these little wooden plaques and write your wishes and prayers on them.

Transportation

The best way to get around Tokyo is by subway and/or walking. The subway system is great.

The traffic was too hetic for me to even think of biking or driving.

 Hi Hope that you ate real sushis. The restaurant in the USA serves better sushi than those in Stockholm, I think. Very nice photos of Tokyo.
