Getting lost on Tokyo

View over the river 

Walking around  in Tokyo and getting last . This what i visited on the way !  Getting better with maps so did not get lost .  Its very hot currently in Tokyo ( they say feels like 42 degrees ) . So not a good idea to walk around for too long . I walked for 7 hours and  did regret it in evening , when i had headaches from the sun .Over all first i walked to Electronics district  - Ahikabara Then went to the park - Ueno Then Asakusa area with temples And then Sky-tree .

Tokyo at night

Tower /spire thing in Tokyo .

I today at 10 Pm i left my hostel , rented a bike and enjoyed night in here . Streets were quiet . Silence everywhere , Can not believe how calm is everything around me . AT the start i tried to reach this spire thing in here Tokyo . It seems so near , but after 10 min of pedalling i still away , got me confused . Decided to leave it , any ways .
   Next there temples , wonder if there is light at night around them and maybe they are even open .. pedal 10 min ... NOT .. fully closed and wrapped in darkness , will visit tomorrow .
  Then i stopped on the bridge and came to a realization that i am lost .. These maps in Tokyo are crazy , they just cut some peace out and turn it completely different way and every time i look at it i turn wrong . ah.     Need help
   Made a decision to ask a stranger .. This pizza guy looked friendly , and was smoking cigarette (2 birds at once - stop for a smoke and directions ) .
   I was on my way turns out my hostel was much closer than i thought .
  Stopped at 7/11

Getting around in Manila

Public transportations -" Jeepneys" , Just
You have to know yourself where you going and
where you want to stop .

So i arrived in Manila .

I fell a sleep in the bus at the back ..."Excuse me ..mam..excuse " driver was trying to wake me up , i grabbed my bag and tried to walk out of the bus as straight as possible , as i just woke up! As soon as i reached exit I saw this one guy in front of the bus waiving a peace of paper and screaming :"taxi , Man , Taxi " That was the moment whe i remembered that i am in Manila (Capital of Philippines ) . 
   I was completely lost . I was Standing on the corner of cross roads with cigarette and trying to wake up and figure out which way to go . I had to get to the hotel . So where is the hotel ??? Good question . The reason i would not take a taxis is , i did not want to be charged triple .
  I went to little meat stand to ask local ladies how to get to the Baclaran - They gave me directions: "Straight ahead 5 min train station and then few stops  )
