-Arrive at Tokyo Narita Airport - 5 PM
-After getting our luggage, we went to the ticket office to exchange our rail vouchers for the JR Rail Pass. We took the Narita Express Train to Tokyo. I left one of my trekking poles on the train by accident. We switched to the Yamanote Line and then to the Metro at Ueno. We arrived in Asakusa, which is the "Old Town" of Tokyo.
-Upon leaving Asakusa Station, we asked the local police officers where our Ryokan was. A ryokan is a traditional Japanese guest house. The police were very helpful in directing us. We arrived at the Ryokan to find that they did not have a reservation for us. After sorting it out, we did a late night shopping run. After some traditional tea seated on pillows barefoot; it was time for some much needed sleep on the futon.
