Yokohama

Today we took the train to Yokohama, a port southwest of Tokyo and Japan's second largest city. We spent our day at Minato Mirai 21 (Port Future 21), a major urban development project on reclaimed land, and checked out the Pokemon store and Landmark Plaza.

While Susan and the kids shopped, I went up to the 69th floor of Japan's second largest building, the Landmark Tower.

On a clear day Mt Fuji is visible from the tower, but it was too cloudy to see it on the day we were there. 

There were good views of Minato Mirai and Tokyo Bay. 

After lunch we checked out the CupNoodles Museum. We learned about how the founder of CupNoodles came up with the idea of instant Ramen and made a custom cup of noodles. After dinner we headed back to Tokyo.
