Back in Tokyo
Well we have been back in Tokyo for just over a week now - all the chaos of moving and reorganizing is over, and we are settling back into life where left off when we left Tokyo a bit over two years ago.
For those of you who couldn’t read the Tokyoã post as it was in Japanese - we have moved back to Minato Ward in Tokyo. We found an apartment in Azabu, just down the road from where we were living when we were last in Tokyo. Not a house this time and we did go and see our old landlord but that area is being redeveloped. If I understood correctly because of the rick of earthquakes in Tokyo they want to get rid of all the old houses in this part of town. It is kind of sad to think that Tokyo will go the way of places like Shanghai with little of its’ traditional architekture preserved, but such is the nature of ‘progress’ in Asia.
We are on the top floor and for the first time in quite a few years in Japan we have a view again. Those of you who visited our place in Mita will remember it was a little on the dark side, so having a well lit place is a welcome change. And the view from the roof is superb - it is going to be a great place for barbecues once summer roles around again.
