Yamaha Piano Factory

On the way back from KyoTo to ToKyo we stopped at the Yamaha Piano Factory.

This is an electric violin

Electric guitar

Electric Cello

This lady was our tour guide. She also played the piano beautifully

This is a replica of the first organ that Yamaha built. The lady asked Charles to sit down and play it. He played a little bit of a song, I wish I'd had a chance to video tape it.

This piano was played for the emporer at a world's fair, and he liked it so much, he ordered pianos for his homes. That was a big moment for Yamaha

A hammer.

After the indoor tour, we went to watch them make pianos, but no picture taking allowed in the factory.

Then we got on another shinkansen to finish the journey to Tokyo. I love the shinkansen.

This is the Disney monorail station

Our hotel room had a view of the Tokyo Bay. Too bad it was cloudy. The night view was lovely, but my camera just can't capture it.

A public area in the downstairs of the hotel displayed another japanese garden.

They had a kawaii piano made with plexiglass. It was locked, or I would have tried out the sound.
