Tokyo - Day 6

Another great day, enhanced by perfect weather.

We started off by going to Happy Pancake a breakfast spot found by Ben. See video. Very light fluffy pancakes with different toppings.

Then off to two ukiyo-e woodblock print shops. A successful outing where Sarah and Matt bought two prints.

Then off to a perfect outing to the imperial East Gardens. We wandered around for an hour and a half to perfect weather and fantastic views.

Then off to the Old Imperial Hotel bar designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and recommended by Michael Makuch. We met up with Karin Roffman for a delightful hour and a half cocktail. The drinks were perfect and even Margot’s martini was absolutely stunning.

No stopping for us. We then went off for an epic nine course meal at Sorohana, with a famed female chef. We had our own room for six people. The meal was extraordinary.

Then bed (no onsen). Tomorrow we head off to Kamakura.Read more
