Rolee Trip - Day 2 Part 3

Outside VenusFront is a permanent car show. I forgot the name of the place but they definitely have nice cars. For this time I didn't took much pictures as I am running low on bat. But last December, I was able to take some pictures around the area.

After numerous shots the group finally decided to head for Odaiba. We planned to take the train headed for Shimbashi, but since the subway station is near Shinjuku Gyoen, we went for a little while to look around. Spring has begun during this time and so you'd see people mingling around Sakura trees.


My legs are starting to worn out and I can feel that I can't take another more step. But the tour must go on. After all, one who likes to travel shouldn't be getting tired of walking. Since we are almost running out of time as it would be dark soon, we better be going to Odaiba if we would like to see as many sites in Odaiba as possible.



One of the most interesting place at Odaiba is VenusFort. Once inside, it is like you are walking along an old street in Europe. I know the concept is not really original here as I know I've seen a picture of one before taken somewhere else.






Rolee Trip - Day 2

The previous night was very tiring after that long walk around Roppongi. Nevertheless it's a bit fun knowing that it will be quite sometime (or never) before I could experience something like this again. . Anyways, today we went to Odaiba but before that we passed by Shinjuku and TMG Grounds.






What I liked about TMG grounds are the numerous sculpture depicting the female form. I remember that back in schooldays, I used to draw female figures, nude at that. Sometimes depecting woman from the tribes.






This one sculpture is really amazing. The first time I saw this back in July last year, I remember right away the UP Oblation. I guess you could call this the UP Oblation "female version".
