Meerkats and Odaiba

On the 14th of June, we had a whole day trip to Odaiba, and it was magnificent! We started in Asakusa, checking out the view of the Sky Tree, playing around in a random bowl of greenry art installation thingy, and jumping on a boat to the island. Definitely the best way to get to Odaiba is by boat.

Asakusa atmosphere!

The first thing we did was check out the beach area, as there was actually a little bit of sand and sea to play in which was really nice. And then on our way to the shops there was a couple walking their meerkat…. And as if a pet meerkat wasn’t cool enough, it was dressed as a fairy 😀 Definitely one of the coolest animals I have held.

So city, but so coasty.
Nice to get out toes out
Grass! Very rare for Japan.
Mitch being all cool.
One of the best moments of my year abroad!
Yes, fairy meerkat!

The main goal of the day was actually to buy tickets for Cirque Du Soleil’s Ovo, which we had noticed was playing there last time we went. Once we got the tickets we spent the rest of the day enjoying the museum and the random pretty sights around the island. The Ferris wheel was really pretty!

Ovo tickets!
Mitch playing with the weird seal
This interactive display at the museum came highly recommended and it was definitely fun! you get your own little circle monster thing and you wonder around doing activities to make it more monstery
Lunch!
I bought this because it is the cutest yellow thing I have ever seen.
Beautiful scenery
Arcade time!
