National holiday… NO WORK 😀

For breakfast… Chicken and daikon cooked in soy sauce yeast that I had prepared for a week and a half. It was yummy!

Spent the morning watching playoff Football. Exciting, even though Raiders did not make it to the payoffs. This year too 🙁

The afternoon was fully dedicated to preparing for the new bookshelf that will be delivered on January 25th. We don’t have much free time before that so now was our chance. We removed all the books and disassembled to Billy bookshelf. Phew!


Messy "library"

IDC and Dinner at Pescaderia

Back in Tokyo. We went to IDC showroom in Odaiba to look for a new bookshelf. The IKEA Billy one we have now has started to give up. The big Tohoku earthquake took a toll on it and the sides are now slowly “sliding” apart. As a result, some of the shelves are resting on the books below 🙂

Once we found the one we wanted and ordered it (to be delivered on January 25th, stay tuned for photos) we drove on to Toranomon hospital where a friend of us has been hospitalised since just after Christmas. He is waiting on a surgery to remove some malfunctioning parts of his digestion system. Though he had not had the surgery yet he still looked healthier than the last time we saw him.


Pescaderia

Then our “tour” went to Ginza for dinner at Pescaderia. To our surprise (positive) they had prohibited smoking in the restaurant, which made the evening even more pleasant than we had anticipated. Yummy!
