Since it was going to rain all afternoon and evening, we headed to Miraikan, a museum dedicated to emerging science and what the future might look like. It was on one end of Tokyo, so it was a bit of a trek just to get there.

The highlight was the small cute robot dog, whom everyone was queuing to pet. It also had exhibitions on the science of ageing, how the internet works, the future of civilisation on Earth and many other topics.
