The Monday Piece - Golden Week Bank Holiday

This week's Monday Piece is on Golden Week Bank Holiday! At the beginning of May the hardworking Japanese are forced to take time off with the arrival of Golden Week, a week full of Bank Holidays to enjoy. Nick and I used the time to explore new parts of Tokyo we'd not been to before, including a trip to the man made island of Odaiba where we feasted on Indian food, shopped and spent time in the retro gaming arcade which is a must do in Tokyo! We also visited Yoyogi Park for a long walk and tandem bike ride, and the Meiji Shrine and gardens in Harajuku which are so peaceful and beautiful full of greenery and fresh air. We also rented a rowing boat in Ueno Park and ate a picnic on the lake in the sunshine!
