Day 2

The next day we visited some more museums and historical sites, including Tokyo's Metropolitan Museum of Art. 

Traditional buildings, like the one above, often burnt down, yet the Japanese would always rebuild them back up exactly the same.
  
Since i was kind of jettlagged and exhausted of looking at museums, however cool they were, I chose to dip out and explore the area until we had to meet back up with the group.

Below are some pictures of a temple that i ran across. When i entered the area, a Japanese man who spoke english taught me how to properly wash my hands and mouth before entering the space. I was glad i had decided to walk around. After the temple, I of course took advantage of the opportunity to shop in Tokyo until our meet-up time :)
