Day 10: Sunday 29 September - Tokyo #3

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!
