Friday, 04 August 2017: Tokyo - Ueno & Nippori
Sleep was a bit fitful and we both agreed on a bit more of a snooze after the 7am alarm (Rosa's suggestion. We were in bed by 10pm).
The morning got off to a very good start as we bumped into Charlea, our IJT tour guide, in the lift on the way to breakfast and she came and joined us. Lots of useful info, and our IC Cards (aka 'Oyster' for Japan).
A bit of a weird breakfast set up - it's in the bar cum pizza restaurant, so we sit surrounded by shelves of wine eating our breakfast.
The plan was to head out for more of an explore and our first expedition on the metro. Charlea's advice was to head to Ueno (上野) for the day, which we did - Rosa googling for manga/anime stores on the area, which led to us spending almost 2 hours in one of the mega manga shops which was just across the road from the train station. Luckily there is more to them than I'd expected - whole floors of craft and modelling kits of all sorts, jigsaws and gadgets like the polar bear we have in our fridge. That said, I can see the novelty is going to wear off for me way before it does for R!
More purchases, then a stroll around the side streets and into the park, past lily ponds, shrines and the Tokyo National Museum (東京国立博物館). We focused on one floor starting with the kimono room and the National Treasures. Very manageable.
Culture done, R and I got the metro back to base and then I headed back out on to do some more sightseeing around Ueno. Found "fabric town" [The Nippori Textile District] and the cemetery where the last Shogun is buried [Yanaka Cemetery (谷中霊園)] amongst other things.
Out for another conveyor belt dinner (different place this time) after another hour, on just one floor of the big Animate anime store.....

Description: Comb grave of Laura Mainord in Holman Cemetery in Overton Co., Tenn.
Date: June 3, 2014
Creator: Dr. Richard Finch
Collection name: Richard C. Finch Folk Graves Digital Photograph Collection
Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

The cemetery contains many of the graves of the founding families of White Oak Flats / Gatlinburg such as the Ogles who built the first home here and the Reagan's and as you'll see by the headstones that some of the women's name have both names. The easiest access to the cemetery is to enter The Village and follow signs to the restrooms and once you reach that just follow the paved road to the right of the restrooms and within a few yards there you'll be.
