Tokyo revisited

Well this entry comes to you from my favourite Starbucks in Tokyo. It is in Roppongi Hills, a reasonably upmarket area. It has been raining or drizzling most of the day, which is a bit miserable. At least here you can sit quietly with coffee, out of the rain. I am on the way to book my bus for tomorrow, back to the airport.

The rain/mist was a bit of a pain, as we were thinking we would head out in the morning for a quick ride. Quick, because the guy I am staying with left at 1230 to catch a flight home to the US.

Must say, I think I had forgotten how good a place Tokyo is. Very clean, everyone polite, and easy to get around. Not without it's quirks, many of which I have commented on in the past. Dress sense being one of the most prominent. I have been reminded of this by the lady who just walked past in fluorescent pink gumboots and long shorts. Sharon would be most impressed - gumboots on a "townie".
