My Sunday Excursion

After waking up at 4:30 Saturday for Tsukiji fish market, Sunday I woke up at 6:30 to meet up with the Leons again and join them for a nice long walk/excursion. We walked from their apartment with Bella the Labradoodle to Hie Jinja shrine which was very peaceful and I got an excellent fortune from the fortune machine. Then we continued on to the Diet Building (like our capital building), then through a park to see the koi pond and feed them. Bella loves watching them eat, and tried to even get in haha!















Finally we arrived at the Imperial Palace where the Emperor lives. You can only stay outside the main gates unless it's his birthday (December) or New Years (January). But it was still quite a site. Checked those off my list!
