Yokohama... Easy...

The ride to Yokohama was easy... After Hakone Pass... Everything is easy... 43km in total... Rode really slowly... Reached hotel at 3pm... Only to be told it only opens at 4pm! =/

Breakfast at Isehara Green Palace Hotel...

Natto... Comes free with breakfast... Tried it... Don't like it... Luckily I don't need to pay for it...

My trusty bicycle... Punctured rear tire still unrepaired... Holding up fine... Lol...

Since the hotel was still closed... Went for lunch... Some sorta Sashimi-don... Pretty good... The wasabi in Japan is much more potent compared to what we have in Singapore... Seriously! Comes with a slice of cheesecake... 630yen...

Went up the Landmark Tower... Tallest building in Japan! Fastest elevator in the World! 750m/min! My ears got blocked coming down...

View of Yokohama to Tokyo skyline at night...

Yokohama bay... Plus Cosmo Clock 21! That's the ferris wheel... Functions as a clock most of the time... And dubbed itself the World's biggest clock!

Like the Umeda Floating Garden... The Landmark Tower is also quite a 'love love!' place... But at least it is not overwhelming...

Subway in Japan with women only carriage! Gropers! Go away!

Napolitan... Said to originate from Yokohama... At least Kuitan (Jdrama!) said so.... Had a hard time finding it... High-class restaurant do not carry this dish... Had to get it from a quick eatery in central Yokohama... 630yen... But the taste is worth it! Seriously...

Receptionist of Sakuraigocho Resort Capsule Hotel!
Will be making my way into Tokyo proper tml... Short ride... 20 to 30km only... Last leg of my ride... After that it's 2 days of Tokyo touring! Subway all the way!
