Damn hot!
It's really really hot today in Tokyo. To avoid the heat I played Pachinko and won 65,000 Yen. Most of my satisfaction, though, derives from the fact that I don't go everyday now, just once a week if I'm free at the weekend, which is most weekends! So, I feel as though I have tamed the beast, so to speak. I picked such a winning machine today, that I started thinking of all the things I could buy with 200,000 Yen! But alas, I ended up with 65,000 Yen which is still good. I'm going to buy a little bicycle. It's been absolutely ages since I bought anything interesting myself, so I'm looking forward to it. I also might by some Nike sandals which I saw for the first time today. They're 1,300 Yen but/and they're cool! Well actually with regards to their coolness, I was a little uncertain, so I'll go back with Naomi's keen eyes - and the rest of her too!
Before Pachinko, I went to Ochanomizu and visited my favourite little shrine by the station. I didn't take any pictures. I shall describe it:
It's nice - really nice - with lots of trees, and a big statue of Confucious ( at least I think it is Confucious )and a curved, green roof and a big Spanish style courtyard. Who needs pictures,eh!
Tomorrow, Doug and I are off to Zushi, by the sea. Should be nice...
