Tokyo metro
Whilst riding the Tokyo metro train could not help noticing how clean they were. Very efficient and on time!!!!!
Rail network Tokyo
In the area of Shibuya - Tokyo. ( the famous footpath crossing used in movies like the movie: Lost in Translation ) and in the Shibuya train station to workout how to get back to the hotel!
It was easy in the end and the locals are very helpful towards tourists...

Arrived in Tokyo.. At the Nikko Narita Hotel.. Very clean and close to the airport but the modern mid 60's bed side clock/ alarm looks out of place....

Piano player
Doing the evening stroll along the Koenig Street shopping / pedestrian area in Stuttgart and came across this guy playing piano.. It provided a lovely atmosphere .. Question is during the day no piano was there...how did he get the piano there? Still it was very nice to listen to his excellent playing.
Afternoon tea
Stopped at the main beer garden in Schloss Garden , Stuttgart for an afternoon tea and rest.. Beer and Pommes ( hot chips ) were very good!
