Yakatabune
















This weekend we went with a group of 38 others to Central Tokyo for a Yakatabune river cruise. The boats are essentially a floating doubledecker restaurant/karaoke bar that cruises the Sumida river in Tokyo. 2.5 hours of all you can eat and drink, and really good service. The sightseeing was pretty cool as you basically cruise the rivers around central Tokyo. This weekend happened to be the tail end of Tokyo's Hanami so there were lots of folks partying under the trees and in the parks along the river. Unfortunately since our camera is pretty much a piece of shit so the photos of the sights outside the boat were pretty weak. Anyhow if you ever have a large group party and are looking for something different to do I would definitely recommend taking one of these cruises.
