Japan: Urayasu/Kasai bridge & Izakaya dinner 2012-11-08

I often found myself headed into Kasai, a neighborhood of Tokyo just across the bridge from Urayasu to go to the local offices of the company I worked for. It was about a 15-20 minute bike ride from where I lived, so nothing major, but it took me through an area of town that I didn't normally spend a particularly large amount of time in and I enjoyed the scenery. After taking care of some business at the offices, I had plans to meet with Kazu again for dinner at a small Izakaya near Urayasu station. 

Golden Gate Bridge

We walked across the Golden Gate Bridge!

Initially, we had planned to bike across, because how fun does that sound?!

A lot, actually, if you're like us. We like active adventures!

However, we found that the only places to rent bikes from near the bridge are still quite some ways away from the bridge itself, and by this point we'd been walking about 8 hours and it was getting late so we were worried about getting the bikes back in time. 

We'd hit Haight street, Golden Gate Park and the Conservatory of Flowers, walked up to Immigrant point lookout, then made it to the iconic bridge!

Let's get a walking'!
