The Observatory by Angelo Celedonio

I woke up late, showered for too long, and got dressed. Y’know, just usual morning routine stuff. Our route was from Kudanshita to Shinjuku. We had to switch lines twice to reach our destination. 
Once we did, mom said that we were supposed to find the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office. We soon found it, and saw a lot of students there. I had guessed that they were there on a field trip.

We searched for the Observatories, and went to the north wing when we had found them. It was really tall, but the elevator ride didn’t take too much time. It went up pretty fast. Heck, it even made my ears pop.

We are on the 45th floor of the North Wing Observatory
It was really high up the observatory. You could see the whole of Tokyo up there.



There were two shops and restaurant, which was closed and only opened for dinner, in the observatory. I had bought a metallic puzzle, where you take pieces of metal to form an object. If I assembled mine, it would’ve made a tank.

And we also got some Dragon Ball Z cards based on the new ‘Fukkatsu No F’ movie. I got Vegeta, while Tristan got Jaco.
After that, we headed back down. The elevator made my ears pop again.
The next place we were headed to was Takashimaya. It was a big mall, but we were only going there to buy some water bottles. Although, we did get lost when we were trying to get to the mall from the station. We had gone the opposite way, and we had to walk all the way to the station.
By the time we reached the mall, my legs were ready to give in. Fortunately, I could finally sit down on the cushions that were in the shoe store, since that was where we passed through.
We spent some time searching for the water bottles mom wanted but the good thing is we got a tourist discount when we bought it.
The walk back to the station was a whole lot shorter, since there was a line nearer to it. We met dad again and we had dinner at a nearby kebab eatery.
