    Hot and humid today in Tokyo - so aimed to stay inside as much as possible.

    Woke up at 5am but was convinced to go back to sleep by Krissi.

    Woke again at 8am and felt I’d wasted the morning! 🤪

    Definitely fighting something viral - 4 airports, 3 planes, 20 subway rides, Disneyland crowds and such will do that to you. I’m determined not to let it get the better of me.

    Started today with Tokyo Skytree (great view, too many people, too many rude people to be exact) and the surrounding shops.

    Then it was time for our visit to Teamlabs Planets.

    Do recommend Teamlabs.

    Very cool immersive experience. I’m not sure we needed to walk through water quite so many times - but it was good fun.

    Took a picturesque train ride to Ginza and to the 11 story flagship store for Uniqlo.

    Then made the long ride home via train and everyone was cooked.

    Krissi and I finished the day with another “cook at your table” dinner for our 20 year ( also 7035 days for those counting ) anniversary in Asakusa.
