    I wanted to get to Tokyo for a while because I wanted to be in a big city again (but sadly no more post-ski pizza 😔).

    The Tokyo Skytree is a tower with lots of scenic views and sights across Tokyo. We went there because there was more stuff to see in a different part of Tokyo.

    TAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL thing… 😲 350 meters in fact.

    It was evening when we got there and the sun was still up but we wanted to see the Tokyo lights, so we went to get dinner first. This Italian restaurant was just around the corner.

    Guess what I ordered…!

    I liked my pizza because it had fresh basil, it was also very salty with hot, gloopy sauce that could fall off your plate at any second!

    It had nice amounts of cheese and it was not too chewy either.

    Dad had a ham and mushroom pizza (once again) and mum had a fresh seafood pasta. They seemed happy with their choices, but really nothing beats a Margherita!

    After this we went up the Skytree and saw Tokyo spread out below us!

      Hey Arlo, only just got the link to your blog. I think its amaaazzzzzing, and the pizza looks almost as good. I had no idea there would be so many pizza places in Japan. Sounds like you are in your happy place
