A view from above of the covered shopping arcades of Naha, coming from Kokusaidori to the right. Naha is actually surpringly dense, and not very pretty when seen from above.

ETA -- to keep this thread on track here is one of my favorites things to do in Tokyo - Dinner! https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...03f6f8ad58.jpg This is just our local Sushi place around the corner from us in Hatchobori - it’s like many places that have amazing food but never show up in any of those “great” places to eat guidebooks…. |

actually, it is a lot of fun riding that monorail through the city on a sunny day. Especially over towards the Shuri end, you feel like you're gliding over the city.

Lol we arrived back here on the 26th and then flew to Yamaguchi on the 7th - and back last night. We will head to nyc on the 20th. Pretty boring schedule - I guess I post too much!

No - we've eaten there a lot though -- it is 銀鮨 in Shinkawa...

Speaking of monorail. This is the Hamamatsucho monorail station with the World Trade Center building removed.

that's nuts to see how big of a building it was that they removed. a little OT but why?
From here, the area is being reconstructed with new office buildings being put up Pre covid I did like going up to the 40th floor observation deck ( very nice views but none of Mt Fuji due to another building being put up) Regards TBS |
