      There was only air mile availability into Haneda….That's the simple answer.....

            So, we arrived very early and went walkies.

            The sort of surreal scene you see on a Tokyo street.  Goat in kennel, whilst serious film shoot takes place…

            Want to vend a banana?

            Then to Tokyo Hands - famous homeware department store.  These 2 guys are so wrong on so many levels…

            Then we bumped into The Swiss Family Hatt…

              I'm following this thread very closely! I love Japan. The best (strangest) thing I ever saw in a vending machine in Japan was a can of creamed corn. Would you like that hot or cold? 😛

                I'll be making my first trip to Japan next month, and will be on the lookout for (a) unusual vending machines, (b) fancy toilets, and © women dressed as schoolgirls.

                  Also, go to Venus Fort on Odaiba Island in Tokyo bay, and marvel at the indoor recreation of neo-classical Europe.

                    Sounds like something perfectly Japanese - I'll make an effort to get there thanks!

                                Update.  Paula left her camera (and phone) in a box at security at Heathrow.  That's a cunning way of getting out of taking photos….

                                    I'm in Tokyo. I'm meeting G&P in the bar. I'm wearing my IH XHS-666.
                                    You have to dress appropriately for moments like these.

                                      Y'all should make a trip to Ajisen, best sake and sushi (and more) in Tokyo, in my opinion. Great area too. It's in the tangled warren of Tsukishima.
