Shibuya Station

After a full day of music, museums, and interesting food, three of us took the subway (by ourselves!) to Shibuya Station! We saw the Hachiko statue (read Hachiko Waits by Leslea Newman):




And then we crossed the busiest intersection in the world, where almost 500,000 pedestrians cross the street each day.

Waiting for the green light:


All crossing in every direction at the same time, as music is played over loud speakers (yes, those are people as far as you can see over to the stores on the other side!):


All in all, a busy and tiring and wonderful first day in Tokyo!
