Quiet day

Yesterday, after a late and slow start, the kids decided they wanted to spend the morning at the park annoying the locals with their frisbee, so Linda and Nick went for a wander around Rippongi and down to Hiroo again.  We had another look at Nick's old residential area, the local shops etc, bought some lovely books at National Azibu, then grapped a couple of sushi bentos and sat in the sun in Arisagawa Park to eat our lunch.  We got back to the hotel around 2, Nick collected his things for dialysis and headed off for his last session.  Mike and Maddie spent the afternoon lazing around the hotel room (the slackers!) and Linda and Georgia headed off across town to Nishi Nippori to get just a little more fabric!  Dinner of bentos from the family mart last night as everyone was really tired.  Managed to pack up 3/4 of our gear so today we are going to look at a local market Seki-no Boro Ichi (which apparently has over 700 stalls and has been running for hundreds of years) out in Setagaya.  No photos from yesterday, didn't take the camera!
