Nice lounge area and a kid bathroom, right across the street from nezu museum.
After the park we took the bus to Shibuya and did some shopping at Loft, then Ton wanted to ride the train to we took the Ginza line to Omotesando and walked all the way back through to Nishi Azabu, with a break at the Maclaren shop.
Her Royal Tonchaness was grumpy and sleepy this morning; not much of a nap yesterday and went to sleep kind of late. She spent most of the morning on the couch watching Totoro and then finally had some breakfast with P. I was not allowed in the room until it was finally ok to change diapers and put on some clothes.
She also wore her new pink beach sandals, but after about five seconds her toes started hurting, so I carried her to school like always.
After Jorge left we had dinner: FISH HEAD and gobo! So. Good.
And just to make sure we had tons of food, Masa showed up and took over the kitchen, cooking up a storm as we got Ton into the bath.
The Mighty Tonchabeast was really tired from so much excitement but finally came to bed kind of late and passed out immediately.
Big sign on the back says "No jumping", which is pretty stupid given that even I wanted to jump into the ball pool. What the sign SHOULD have said is "You are the adult, it is your child, take some responsibility for raising him/her not to be a completely spoiled prat."
Amazing to compare:
Hanging out in Roppongi Hills on our day off, and Tonchan wanted to check out the Doraemon store. She pretended to shop for a bit, and then we met P, who tried to get into a cheap movie (Women's Wednesday) but it was too crowded.
Instead all three of us headed up to the 52nd floor Skydeck where Bornelund had set up a whole kid's thing; ball pool and playhouse and fishing boat...and a bunch of kids beating on each other, etc.
On my way to Honbu Dojo to meet BigTony I stopped by this most excellent men's facility.
Spent the AM in Honbu training with BigT, Hoshina, and Gosoke, had a bento, made some final notes, and then BigT and I headed over to Sakuraya.
We bought some new kit for a bargain price, then went to the Volcom office in Shinagawa to meet his Japan team. One of the guys went with us to the Volcom store in Harajuku where we met up with Roger and headed to Harajuku Gyoza for some quality dinner. Then we went down the street to Starbucks and Elvis joined us for some general smack talk and silliness.
Finally headed back to BigT's hotel, finished up some bid'ness, watched the end of Oceans 11, and headed home.
P needed iron and animal flesh, so she came over and we had lunch at Lawrys.
Toddie Papa launches Tonchan into orbit as Maya demands her turn. All the kids spent hours running about, riding kick scooters and tricycles and causing general mayhem. Tried putting Ton in a stroller to see if she'd nap but she was having none of it. Finally just picked her up and carried her to the station. She cried for 10 seconds when we said good-bye but then she passed out by the time I went through to ticket gates.
Went to Shibuya, got on the bus home, and when we got off at our stop she woke up and cried for onigiri so I bought her one but she was too tired and grumpy to eat it I carried her home and dumped her onto P so she could snuggle properly.
Anxious to go to Shibuya and see Maya and Amy! We met them at TGIFs and then took the subway to Sanja to go play at their house with all the random neighborhood kids.
