It's late Sunday morning and you have 2 hrs before the next meeting. What to do? What to do?

Take a couple of subway trains.






Ginza ! Hurrah!

My favourite watch store was closed on Sunday. WAKO is owned by the Hattori family (they of Seiko fame); one of only two original family owned watch manufactures in the world.








Department stores abound.






Nissan Gallery where you CANNOT buy a car. Everything you see is for information only.

3930x1580x1035mm. 660kg.
DOHC 1996cc engine. 200PS@8000rpm.
1966: 3 times Japan GP winner.
1964: 2 times Japan GP winner.



The NEW:

The future of timekeeping?









Valentine's Day is coming.....




Salads.


Beef.


Fish.
