3 things I like about Tokyo

Just back from my first day out in Tokyo. The Meiji Jingu shrine (not temple-my mistake) is gorgeous. So is the park it's surrounded by - Yoyogi Park. After a quick prayer at the shrine I walked down Omotesando Road, which is the equivalent of Rodeo Drive or 5th Avenue. The only thing I could afford was some sushi, which my "guide" Yumi bought me. (I've never had so much raw fish in one sitting!) and a haircut at some mall. Unfortunately for Ross he is doing interviews all day while I explore. On Friday, when he is free, I plan on bringing him to my favorite places.
Here are three things that I really love about this city.
1.) Taxi doors open and close automatically for passengers.
2.) After I got my hair cut, two people blew it dry!
3.) The subway (at least the line we are on) comes every three minutes.
