Day 8: Odaiba, 115m above the ground in a fishtank
... loaded paper clip). That's it. The girls looked at their clips, then at me, then at the cashier, then at me again. Angela (uncensored as always) exclaimed, in her loudest most disgruntled voice: "IS THIS ALL WE GET????". I sincerely hope the Fuji staff behind the counter were able to understand English.

Odaiba
Well today was as we thought, a big day in Odaiba.
We had a later start and Steve found directions for how to get to our first stop of the day, which was the Tokyo Sea Life Park. We had to catch three trains to get there and we did pretty well until we got on an express train which flew past our station. We had to get off at the Disneyland station to turn around.
