From Tokyo’s “France” to Old Tokyo

Today we wandered into the “French Section” (Kagurazaka District) of Tokyo.  We dined at a small French bistro and had the most challenging time ordering since we arrived.  The owner was disappointed to learn we weren’t French!  The Imperial Palace Gardens (that are open to the public) weren’t that interesting.  We also visited Shinjuku Golden-gai District – a area of old narrow streets and many small bars.  The Kabukicho District (a portion of which is the Red Light District) has entertainment for all ages!! Off to Kyoto tomorrow!
