The google map app gave the wrong directions on how to get there, so we had a hard time. We made it, though--and it was worth it! We found these steps with pink hearts on them--very appropriate for Valentine's Day!
Rainbow Bridge is a breathtaking sight at night, with Tokyo Tower lit up in the background. Instead of the usual orange, the tower boasted a pink color in favor of the holiday. Rainbow Bridge connects Tokyo to the man-made island of Odaiba.

Recognize her? She has little to do with the original Statue of Liberty that is in New York, however. It is a replica of one that was put here on Odaiba to celebrate Japan`s ties with France; it was only here for one year, 1998-1999. It was so popular however, that they made another one and put it back up in 2000. This statue has been enjoying the amazing views from her platform since then.
Dinner boats floating around in the bay.
We walked along for a bit, enjoying the awesome view and talking about life after Tokyo.
All too soon, it was time to get back on the bus to return to the metro. What a beautiful night with breathtaking views! Can't wait to bring the kids back here!
