Ranko!!

We made it up to Tokyo to meet up with our friend Ranko! Long time no see!! We had so much fun. We went to a Buddhist temple, ate a ton of great food, drank some great beer, and did something none of us had ever done before - took a tour on the top of a double decker bus! It was amazing! It was a great tour of Tokyo, and we were really shocked when the bus got on the highway. Being on top of a vehicle going 60mph is pretty wild! My hair was out of control! Haha

It was so great seeing an old friend, especially in her hometown. We can't wait to see you again, Ranko!

The silver tower pictured between buildings is the Tokyo Skytree. It is the tallest tower in the world and is used for broadcasting and has a restaurant in the top. 

The orange and white tower that looks like the Eiffel Tower is Tokyo Tower. It is also used for broadcasting, and you can go up to an observation deck in it. 

This lovely building is the Asahi Beer headquarters, and yes, is was designed to look like a mug of beer with a frothy head.
