Electric City, Ginza and More...

Sunday we decided to try to find a park that we had seen on the map that wasn't that far from the hotel. When we found the park we realized it wasn't they kind of park we were thinking of. It had trails you could walk along with a pond that men were fishing out of. Their fishing poles are very interesting. They have no reels on them. They are just a stick with some string attached to them. After we walked around the park for a little bit we went and caught the subway up to Electric City. Electric City is where everyone goes to buy electronics. One of the stores we went in I swear had over 1000 TV's on display. One TV was priced over 10,000 dollars. After we walked around that city for awhile we headed back to the subway. We ended up getting off in Ginza which is the largest shopping district. It is so crowded the close the street so people can walk in it. They had all the high end brands. We saw three Tiffany & Co. within a 1 block radius. It was pretty crazy. We soon headed back to the Hotel for some dinner and swimming.
