Killing time in Akihabara before meeting Chie's friends, we went for a coffee and a bit of cake in this very nice little cafe.
|
16:49:35
This boozy Baumkuchen was particularly good.
|
16:49:57
Chie appeared to like the cutlery here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:14:14
In the first venue of the evening now - an Okinawan izakaya. Here's Chie wearing the new glasses she bought today for a staggeringly cheap 25 quid.
|
19:43:35
A bit of a view down our table - I think this was just getting the camera warmed up or something.
|
19:49:03
A more comprehensive view down our big long table - there were about 12 of us.
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:49:16
...same thing again.
|
20:54:15
Outside the first place, a rather crappy group shot taken using the self timer.
|
20:55:18
Another self timer attempt which was also something of a failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
20:55:48
....at least I got into the picture in time on this attempt, but the results are still not amazing... Oh well!
|
22:18:18
In the next bar now - four girls in a row (Chiharuchan, Aikosan, Chiechan and Tomochan).
|
22:58:07
A nice group picture in the second place.
|
|
|
|
|
|
23:53:15
Seeming group pictures became the order of the day, so here's another one outside the station as most people started to head home...
|
23:53:48
....and another.
|
00:05:46
In the station now...
|
|
|
|
|
|
00:08:31
It's inevitably when you get a picture of three people sitting in a row you'll end up with a three wise monkeys shot.
|
00:09:00
Another variation on the three monkeys - I was rather proud of the new "smell no evil" concept at the time.
|
00:13:23
Yet more pictures on the platform...
|
|
|
|
|
|
01:22:41
For some of us at least, the night was not yet over - a select group of party goers followed us back to Sasazuka (the part of Tokyo where me and Chie live) and we went to another izakaya there...
|
01:33:51
...despite having eaten earlier we ordered quite a lot of food here - including this fascinating concept "tomato tempura".
|
01:34:03
So intrigued was I with it that I thought it deserved a second picture without the flash. ...and on that note, here endeth the lesson.
