In Tokyo.... Finally....

OK, never mind that previous post, for some reason I cannot get blogger to show up in english, so I had to figure out what button did what.

Anyway, after a 12 hour flight and a rather long time actually getting to Tokyo (the immigration line felt longer then the flight) I am actually here, showered, and feel pretty good.

The hostel I lined up before the flight seems pretty decent so far, so far it seems like many things Japanese, kind of utilitaian, but clean and well run. The only real downside of it is that it is in this area called Asakusa, which is a little off the beaten track on the main Tokyo attractions and activity. It is actually kind of cute however, all quiet little streets with little shops and noodle joints that look very Japanese. It does have a vending machine with beer for a buck, so that is good, but it does seem like the Natty Light of Japan.

Anyway, probably going to go check things out a little bit before I crash.
