Tokyo to Kanazawa

Our last morning in Tokyo was a pre breakfast walk to Sumida river, across the bridge to Sumida Park which we had seen from the train, and back again along our path. It had rained overnight and blossom was on the ground - not yet swept up. The cleaners were busy after the evening parties and the blossom was glorious with just a few people about. On our way back, the kids were heading to school and we stopped at a small Family Mart to buy supplies for the day, including a bento box of sushi/ fish on rice.
After breakfast we relaxed in our room until 10 am checkout. When we got to Minowa station, the first train was still crowded with commuters so we waited and the next was much better. We were early to Ueno station but happy to sit down and wait for our first shinkansen.
