Ten Days in Tokyo - April 2009

Cherry blossoms through the train window. Tokyo has the most expansive and impressive train and subway system I have ever seen bar none. I've never seen a train not on time or early and they seem to run continuously all the time, everywhere.
A reflective garden at the Yasukuni Jinja shrine.
Everyone outdoors on Saturday during cherry blossom festival season. Had a great meal here that I had no idea what I was eating.

The Yasukuni Jinja war shrine that memorializes the 2.5 million Japanese war dead since 1869 when it was built, including all the war criminals interred here from World War II. It's the Japanese version of Arlington Cemetery.
