Dinner at Mai Thai

In the morning Chie and I paid another visit to the pool. Another 2 hours before going back home. No sense staying longer as it quickly became too crowded.


Chie and Ryo at Mai Thai

In the evening we met Ryo and Henrik (a work colleague of mine) at Mai Thai in Ebisu. We had Thai food that was so hot our lips got numb. Yummy!

Pool Side

Chie also took the day off today. We spent the morning together at the pool side about 250 meters away from the apartment. It was quite cooling to stay in the shadow and then to cool off further in the pool when the shadow got too hot.

A funny thing with Japanese public pools is that every 50 minutes the lifeguards call everyone out of the pool. To make sure everyone rest and get warm, because whether you are a grown up or a kid visiting with your parents you are not capable of making that sure for yourself 😉 Then the lifeguards checked that nobody was on the bottom of the pool (surprisingly people tend to drown about 49+ minutes after entering the pool… NOT). I laughed all the way home.
