Sunday 06/05/07 - Shinjuku to Yoyogi Park

Shortly after leaving behind the shops we could never afford to frequent, we have a brief look at Shinjuku and Kabuki Cho... it is at this point the weather takes on a decidedly "northern" air. (maybe we brought it with us?)

This we decide, is the perfect weather to wander round a park and temple!
Yoyogi Koen and Meiji Jingu to be precise...



North entrance and Torii gate



Shrine entrance (notice the crow... so big it could probably eat children and small adults)











maybe we should have wrote a prayer for better weather?












the secluded iris garden (probably looks much better when the flowers are in bloom!)
