Here we are in a restaurant in "Okinawa Town" - a small street full of Okinawa shops and restaurants near where I live in Tokyo.

Next venue of the evening was Masako-san's bar, also near where I live. We were all drinking bottled beers, whereas Tim had a bucket of Hoegaarden.

Nicely done group shot here.

Same sort of thing again with a swap of photographers.
|
21:44:51
....oh and it seems yet another was required!

Me with Masako-san (on the right hand side) and another girl who worked there called Yuka, who it turned out was also a model (and thus the magazine).
|
22:41:53
A delightful display of British sign language by the chaps, with some assistance from Masako-san and Yuka-chan.
|
22:55:55
The final venue of the evening was an izakaya opposite Masako-san's bar, where me and Shig had a fun time with the oshibori (wet towels).

David too was keen to join in.
|
22:56:45
...and more of the same buffoonery ensued.

The tomato tempura - they originally told me they couldn't do it, but Shig was very persistent and I think the chef must have popped out to buy tomatoes. Excellent!

Very sweet picture of David and his wife Megumi-san to end on.
