I had to check out of the hotel this morning.\u00a0 I left my bags at the hotel, and Kaoru and I went to Ginza, and walked around a bit.\u00a0 Because she lives so far from Tokyo, she doesn’t get in there much, so wanted to make the most of her local stay.<\/p>\n
We went to Shimbashi to see the train blow it’s horn.\u00a0 We also wandered around the dark alleys – an area that Kaoru wouldn’t do on her own, but is safe for her to do with a male.\u00a0 There are lots of pubs (some seedy, some not too bad), and Japanese strip bars.\u00a0 No, we didn’t go in any!<\/p>\n
Since we were out, we decided to go to Akihabara, to buy some more phones.\u00a0 We needed 2 for Nishifunabashi (so they had remotes that were in Japanese), and then a spare for each of Nishifunabashi and Kashiwa (so batteries wouldn’t go flat).\u00a0 I managed to find them at not-too-bad a price – 2 were brand new and 2 were second hand.<\/p>\n
We went to Shinagawa and picked up our bags, and then caught the train to Fugisawa.\u00a0 After taking our stuff to Kaoru’s apartment, we went out for dinner in Fugisawa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
