Today we visited the high-tech entertainment hub on the artificial island of Odaiba. First, we explored and interacted with hands-on science-related topics at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation - the Miraikan. Lunch was at the Venice-themed Venus Fort Mall, followed by time exploring the area including the Toyota Showroom. We spent the afternoon at the Mori Digital Art Museum - a mesmerizing display of lights and colours. We even created our own sea-themed artwork which was scanned and projected onto a moving replication of the ocean. Our day was completed with a group dinner of fries and burgers at Mos Burger. With weary legs, we returned to our hotel for an early night to get a good rest in readiness for our trip to Disneyland tomorrow!
Together with the students of Shinjo’s International Relations Committee, today we took a bus trip to the seaside town of Shonai located on the west coast of Japan. Here we visited a candle making store where we hand-painted our own candle. We then headed to the “Kamo Aquarium” located on Shonai Beach facing the Sea of Japan. This extraordinary aquarium is world famous for having the largest number of jellyfish exhibits. On return to Shinjo, we participated in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony.
