Today we take a water
taxi to Odaiba Island. I was a little worried about what a water taxi really
was….under water? I guess that would be a submarine. I just figured there wouldn’t be much space or
that it would sink or something. Once we got inside, however, I was relieved.
It is very spacious and they even serve coffee! After a while they opened up
the roof deck. This was the best part. The smell of the sea air, the nice
breeze, and the wonderful view.
Once we got there, we
went to a science museum and Panasonic. Obdaiba Island seems like it has a lot
of cool things to see, so I’d like to come back here again someday.
I leave to meet up with
Teresa for the weekend and I forget where the subway station is located. Google
maps leads me to a bus station (hey, the bus and subway kinda look the same, so
it was user error this time!). I end up asking several people for help because
I have never ridden a bus here. The schedule and Google are very confusing, so
I ended riding about four different buses before I figured out where to finally
get off to ride the subway. I definitely got lost in Tokyo this time. I have to admit, at first, I was a bit
overwhelmed and could feel the nerves kicking in. I just used that handy mantra
and decided to make it an adventure instead. I knew eventually I’d make it to
my destination. It was all feeling great and then I got off at a stop and the
building behind me was playing the theme song from “The Neverending Story”. It made me crack up laughing, so then I
really knew I was gonna be good. The rest was just fun times.
