08:40:23 The view from our hotel in the morning. | 08:40:33 We could just about see Mount Fuji! | 08:41:34 | 08:54:21 I picked up a jar of Marmite in Heathrow airport on the way here. |
09:36:29 Chie and Erika in our hotel room. Not sure why this is so grainy. | 09:37:14 | 10:09:03 On our morning stroll. | 10:19:26 Passage Coffee, near Keio univeristy. The espresso was very good here. |
10:45:41 | 11:01:49 Near our hotel there was some kind of local community event where they were making mochi. | 11:02:43 Erika trying some of the freshly made mochi. | 11:04:44 Chie looking incredibly happy for having some baked sweet potatoes. |
11:04:49 | 11:08:55 Erika with the sweet potato. | 11:11:58 | 11:55:30 Kamiya Bar in Asakusa. |
11:55:35 | 12:11:50 My lunch at a vegan / macrobiotic / organic cafe in Asakusa. | 12:32:39 Had a bit of time to kill before meeting Tanaka-san so I went to look at Sensoji. | 12:33:05 |
12:34:34 | 12:34:40 | 12:35:21 | 12:37:51 |
12:38:03 | 13:09:48 The Sumida River and the Golden Turd. | 13:15:17 | 13:34:25 In Kamiya Bar now. |
15:15:15 Tanaka-san and I made a new friend at Kamiya Bar and went on a tour of other bars in Asakusa (none were as good as Kamiya). | 18:10:36 I took over parenting in the evening so Chie could go out with her friends. Here's Erika being indulged with one of these "gacha gacha" machines. |
