I have finally arrived in Yokohama, though P and I went here for a small one day trip Thursday. My first impression is of a relatively calm city, but of course this is colored by recent exposure to the busier parts of Tokyo.

Below is a small slideshow of what I will be calling home for the next 2 weeks, after that I will be moving to Yokohama International Student House.





The hotel is called Toyoko-inn, its name apparently a portmanteau of Tokyo and Yokohama according to Wikipedia. It also seems to have featured in an illegal building alteration scandal.
