We've discovered some unusual sights along Yurikimone(?), the automated tramway that extends to the recently developped bay area. There is an amazing looping bridge. Also a wonderful "old edo" style spa/hotspring (can't recall the name) where you can choose your own kimono--so many interesting baths to try, nice experience.

The automated tram is the Yurikamome. It runs btwn. Tokyo and Odaiba. Pretty cool. It reminded me a bit of a Disney ride at Tomorrowland.

And the other place you are speaking of is, I think, Oedo Onsen Monogatari. A themed onsen, themed after Edo.

Thanks for bringing back this post. It brings back good memories.

Yes, we encountered no brashness from any of the super people there. They are so polite there. They just have to crack down on the smokers!! :P

Take care,
