Miki and Helena

AAARRGGHH! Had just written up so much of our day and then pressed the wrong button and it all disappeared... so annoyed!

We spent Saturday with Miki and Helena who had just flown in from London and was knackered, poor thing!

We went round Tokyo in Miki's car - thank you Miki - and saw the view from the Park Hyatt Hotel where they filmed Lost in Translation. We crashed a japanese wedding or should I say weddings and went up Tokyo Tower. It was good fun! Had the best sushi at the fish market - so yum! and Phil tried sea urchin eggs I think - gross and YUK!

He didn:t enjoy them which is great, because if I had to make them I would gag! We ate loads and it was all so good though and so fresh.

Then went on to a gig with some NY style poetry reading - some of it was good - other bits were just disenchanted youth stuff - boring - but some of the bands were good. Bit of funk, some weird techno and naked dancing... hmmm

On to some late night noodles, some drinks and then to the 24hr Leisure complex to hit some baseballs and play video games. Didn:t get home until quite late but had a great day and lots of fun seeing a different side of Tokyo.

By the way, stepped on some glass and had to dig splinter out of my heel while Miki was driving through Roppongi at like 2am - v surreal...

and that was that!
