Yokohama - Japan



We left our hotel in Tokyo and made our way by train to Yokohama, which is where the port is and where we met the Celebrity Millennium for a two week long trans-Pacific cruise.  This pretty ship above is not the Millennium but was photo-worthy.

There was a lovely pier with a garden full of roses, but sadly, were fenced off and I couldn't inhale their perfume.


We had enough time to drop off our luggage with the cruise line and then take a long afternoon walk around town and see the China Town in Yokohama.  The main, most identifiable difference between the Japanese and Chinese temple architecture is the plentiful and varied use of colour.



A ball park where a baseball game was just about to start.



A tall ship docked in the pier area of Yokohama.  Notice the ferris wheel clock in the background.


More Yokohama amusement park…

Our new home for two weeks.  Room 3004 on the starboard side and close to the water with a view of the ocean that allowed us to see the waves VERY close.  Loved it.  The cabin was very spacious after having spent 10 days in tiny Japanese hotel accommodations!
