Returned to Tokyo
Yesterday we got up early. Checked out from the hotel. Walked 200 meters (or so) to the Arlanda Express platforms where we bought tickets and boarded the train bound for the airport.
After 3 hours transit at Schiphol where we did some last minute tax free shopping and a sleepless flight we arrived in Tokyo today. We got on the airport shuttle bus to Shinagawa area and got off at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel. From where we took a taxi back home, arriving around noon.
I was exhausted and Chie had also not slept well on the flight so the first thing we did was to take a 1.5 hour nap. Then we were ready to unpack, do laundry and… Well, get used to being home again 🙂
By 6 pm we were starving and went to Tatsuharu, a Chinese restaurant a few hundred meters away. It was yummy!
Tea Ceremony
Another tea ceremony class. It is always relaxing though quite painful for my knees to have a tea ceremony class. I have advanced to making thick tea and so I did today again. I also helped my sensei… By correcting my fellow students when they made mistakes… I love doing that 😉
On my way back from the class (at 6 pm) it was no longer fiercely hot as it was at 1 pm when I arrived. I also found an interesting little monument, probably made by some kids (see the picture).
Once I got tired of looking and an eggplant cow and a cucumber horse… Or maybe the vice versa… I continued to the train station, and went back to meet Chie in Naka-Meguro. Once again we were too tired and too hot for cooking dinner at home. So today we went to Tatsuharu, a Chinese restaurant less than 500 meters from home.
The food is good and they always play Beatles songs in the background. We had too much to eat and decided that next time we need to bring some friends so we can try more food but become less full 🙂 Anyone care to join us?
Dinner at Tatsuharu
We decided to not cook at home tonight. Instead we went to Tatsuharu, a Chinese restaurant just around the corner from where we are living. We have passed it many times but never entered.
Today we thought we should try it out. If it’s no good then we don’t need to return, was our reasoning. To our surprise it was quite tasty food for a nice price. Though the chef seemed a bit sour. Maybe too much of the sour plums?
