After checking out the Nihonbashi BonOdori Matsuri, we headed 5 seconds down the street to get some yakiniku at Batten, where I always go to recharge after the dojo.

Luckily they had raw liver, so Tonchan inhaled a whole plate before running around outside and looking at the festival.

Apparently both kids got up about 5am and immediately pooped; not sure about the correlation/causation between the pooping and the early rising...all I know is at 5:59 a little voice whispered in my ear "Papa, good morning!" and then a few seconds later my alarm went off at 6:00, so I managed to miss most of the morning fun.
Had a typical eat-your-breakfast-get-your-clothes-on-brush-your-teeth-wipe-your-face battle, and then a good hour to goof off before going to school, so we watched Crimson Pig and rolled around on the carpet being silly.
By 8am The Ton was anxious to get out and go to school, so she grabbed Stitch (her favorite since she saw him on TV a couple nights ago) and headed out the door. Tried to walk as slowly as possible, and tried to make Ton walk on her own as much as I could. When she couldn't stand it anymore I put her "upup" on my shoulders and proceeded to nearly bump her head into every light pole, tree, bush, and wall I could find.
After buying a bevvie at the AM/PM we headed up to school at 8:20, at which point she immediately ran up to Shuhei and completely forgot about me.
