Some Randomness in Tokyo

I wasn't sure where to group these photos and video of Tokyo, so I decided pick the most interesting photos and videos.

 Here is the west view of the city from the Tokyo WTC observation deck.
View of the east side from the same building
Here's a quick shot of a busy street when I was going up on an escalator.
 I'm standing just right outside the Imperial Gardens. 
 This train goes through several districts in Tokyo.
 Another video of me riding on the same train, except this one gives a nice view to the bay.

Odaiba Island

Odaiba is an artificial island across from central Tokyo. The train ride to the island had some great views. We didn't realize how large the island was until we crossed the bridge into the area. The views of the sea and buildings in the background were spectacular.
