Resting my feet at my accom in Tokyo after many hours of train rides. I'm not going to bother going out for dinner tonight, I have ekiben I haven't eaten yet. I really feel flat and exhausted. No sake tonight, just lots of sleep and tomorrow I shall be up and on my feet for some vigorous walking in the rain. Found a coffee place nearby that is actually open from 7:30 - a rarity in Japan where most cafes open from 10 or 11 (๐Ÿ˜ข) - gonna head there and then just ramble around and explore. I realise I have some people I need to get gifts for or they'll be a bit annoyed, so time to start looking...

This needs to include veg gyoza or a nice knife I'll settle for either.

Pah, you can make excellent gyoza. (I've only had it once this whole time, I really ought to fix that over these last few days)

A nice knife it is, but not so nice that customs decides to keep it for themselves.
