I would have expected the suits of armor to be different on each side. And maybe the swords and crossbows, too. But I haven't been there so that's just based on my perception of the place from movies.

Senso-ji and the market outside it is my favorite part of Tokyo. The temple is beautiful and the market surrounding it is full of traditional Japanese street food and snack stalls. The Sumida river is very close if you need some down time. Shopping in Tokyo depends on what you are looking for. Shibuya is the general shopping district with Tower Records being a highlight for me. Ginza is the high class shopping district. Akihabara is nerd central with anime, maid cafes, and video game stores surrounding being the majority of shopping. Harajuku is the fashion capital and changes constantly. Takeshita street is perhaps the most touristy part of Tokyo though. The Tokyo National Museum is fairly big and gives a pretty good overview of Japanese history in its main building. One ticket gets you access to everything but the rotating special exhibition. The Tokyo-Edo museum focuses more on the city itself but is also large with a whole recreated Kabuki theater in it with performances I believe. Near it is the Hokusai museum if you like ukiyo-e, it contains a lot of original prints. Nightlife is scattered throughout Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Ikebukuro with Kabukicho being the seedy part, it also has Godzilla st leading up to Toho Theater though. Golden Gai is historic district of small dive bars but I found it overpriced and touristy. Outside of Tokyo some of my favorite places are Dontonbori and Shin Sai Bashi Suji in Osaka, Nijo-jo and The Philosopher's Path in Kyoto, and Himeji Castle in Himeji.

Wife and i almost went to a WC qualifier in Zagreb, Croatia vs Kosovo. But it was like a 5 hour bus ride from where we were staying and it ended up canceled due to lightning.

I always look for deals regarding travel. This KC to Istanbul trip can be done on the cheap if traveling in September. You can book $939 round trip. That flight is a hassle. For $200 more you can fly to Istanbul (weekday) with one stop at JFK with a short layover there and back. That's a hell of a deal.

Istanbul is a nice city but the food there sucks. Turks don't know how to cook.
