        Is there a 100% cotton watch cap amongst all the great gear there G? Or did I imagine it!?

        There is, but we did not see it…

            Wednesday and yesterday were taken up mostly with fairly intense meetings about challenges faced and opportunities we want to pursue - for IH Japan, UK and the universe as a whole!

            Meeting with Roots, China:

            Back to our favourite Ton-Katsu restaurant in Shibuya:

            @obbigood Johnny was in charge of ordering, so we had plenty of great food (thank you, Johnny!):

              After a rainy start to the week, the sun appeared yesterday - we had a meeting yesterday in Shinjuku and were close to the Gyoen National Garden (completed in 1906 for the Imperial Household and opened to the public in 1949).  A large and beautiful botanical park in the centre of Tokyo, we took an hour out to stroll and enjoy the sun, fresh air and lovely landscapes.

                    Giles was very tired - not surprisingly - long days, 8-hour time difference and late nights do take their toll, and we're not as young as we used to be!  😞

                                  This is quite the daring, ambitious and downright wonderful idea. I love it.

                                    With appropriate timing and sufficient advance notice, I have no doubt I could get Julie onboard for this.

                                          Depending on the timing, this is a trek I’ve always wanted to take! Marcia and I may have to wait a few years, though, as she’s loathe to travel internationally until her next green card is issued. (We’ve only been waiting ~2 years [emoji849])
