| Japan 2000 Day 5 | |

 As we try to discover how to get to Ginza, we are helped twice more by strangers who direct us to the correct subway. Soon we are in Ginza - an upscale shopping area with more huge neon, jumbotron TVs, and classier people. Every intersection in Tokyo looks like Times Square - very different from Osaka. We decide to shop in a seven story department store and I buy many little things just because they have ridiculous English on them. We next find a coffee shop and relax overlooking the street. After that, it's more wandering, maneuvering our umbrellas and being distracted by the sights and sounds of Ginza. But we are tired, so we ride back to Shinjuku and at last find the hotel again, after getting just a little lost. At the hotel, we find hot water and green tea waiting in our room, along with Japanese robes. We go to one of the hotel's seven restaurants for a buffet and completely devour everything in sight, then have coffee and listen to piano. Afterwards, I am asleep (in a bed this time) in minutes - I think Matt has some tea and relaxes a bit before nodding off. Japan 2000 Day 5
