Ueno Park

Ueno Park, again a beautiful place, but was so packed as it was a bank holiday weekend, the usual Japanese thing to have beautiful sights, ruined by hordes of tourists! (ok ok, so we were tourists...but we're different!...). The white pieces of paper are fortunes. You get a fortune on a piece of paper, if its a good one, you take it home, if its bad, then you tie it to a tree or post, and the spirits take it away...
