Day 1

Day 1: In our first day at University of Tokyo, we had a short info session followed by a campus tour. Everything ended pretty early so we got to go venture off into Tokyo! We didn't want to start with anything too grand so we took a nice walk to Ueno Park which was only 15 minutes away from Hongo campus.
The view of Ueno Park.  It was nice seeing that Tokyo isn't just a city
 filled with skyscrapers but also has spots with natural beauty.
He was painting Ueno Park but to our surprise, he wasn't satisfied with his work.
However, I thought it was really nice and couldn't resist from taking a photo.
We decided to go on a quick 30 minute ride on the paddle boats.
Although they looked cute to begin with, we quickly regretted out choice
as the boats were made for the Japanese physique and the boats were too small...
