Irresponsible with Money

Then a 7D and a new lens could come along with you home from Bic Kamera... And it could have turned out so much worse, so basically I was responsible...

And yet again we can see, she needs a tripod and possibly a good flash... 

                                     

Spaghetti in 八丁堀

It was a spaghetti specialist restaurant, the sauces were all very tasty, but that pasta itself were nothing special (tasted like plain barillia spaghetti). The really good part was the salad and the fun company.

Thursday Dinner

Project team out on dinner with Swedish guests.  Actually this was second dinner for me that evening, since I first attended Faye's farewell party at a Chinese restaurant in Inter City. 

Ikebana at old Sony HQ in Gotenyama

Itoko-chan suggested we should join Sony's Ikebana club today, and so we did. 

上を向いて歩こう

...and sometimes you see this instead of the sky, at least in Shinjuku.

Two Rooms

Very nice dinner at Two Rooms with Erlö, Kumiko & Itoko. Long time since had chance to enjoy fancy restaurant with nice friends. 

This door is the emergency exit.

Dear, General Affairs in w-building. Should I worry about my safety? It feels pretty good that I have found it, THE emergency exit (there are no others?) Strict prohibition? I can probably learn to live with that some how... but this whole "Evacuation during a disaster will malfunction." part kind of alarms me.     Do we even need this door, if your so sure evacuation will not go according to plan? 

And even if you could read Japanese... most people would probably have inhaled enough toxic fumes to pass out, and later burn to death... before reading half-way through the second sentence.

Natta-Mad

First I had doubts if I wanted to go out this evening or not... then I Erlö kind of convinced me I should (there could have been some threats involved). Reason I did not want to join was (besides being tired and missing my bed) was that I had all the ingredients (except cheese) at home to make quesadilla with cheese, jalapeno, spicy beans and red onion... with some avocado/tomato/red Onion/jalapeno/parsley thingy on the side... but it turns out that it was perfectly okay to make it after I got home too. Made a little bit too much, so might have to save some for breakfast...

Sony Mobile Summer Festival

This was not the festival, this was afterwards when hanging out with Itoko-chan. Nice bubbly. 

Oishii cheese...

Tokyo Tower still lit up. 

And we got flip-flop shoes, fan and I won something again, but not really sure what it is... but I'm suppose to get it next week. I hope it is body shop things but French (as Itoko-chan said) .. but as far as we know now... could be anything.. 

We could do BBQ at the party. I was mostly focused on the corn... and keeping the meat products away from it..

Shibata and Henrik is bbqing.. 

Reza, David, Kanemoto and Erro-Matti too.

Thai Garden Dinner

Thai dinner with Dan, CC, Fred, Hiroko, Satchiko, Mike and a few others. 

海鮮 in Shinbashi

東京湾花火大会 Tokyo Bay Fireworks

It is pretty obvious, I need a tripod...

Before the Show

Boats

Late Night Snack - Avocado

Okachimachi - Kamiyamacho Walking...

Went to Taito's Takeya to find some items my sweet friends Fiona and Xiu wanted for their babies, unfortunately the store did no longer sell these items. I was disappointed, but since the sun was shining and it was Sunday after all, decided to walk the almost 12K back home. A sweaty but otherwise nice walk. 

Yukata Dinner

Yuko, Rie and I were too lazy to go to all the way to Edo-gawa. Instead we dressed up and went for dinner at Mugen and a walk in Shibuya. 

Joakim & Ida - Going Away Party

This afternoon, I was a bit tired and considered not attending the party, I'm now very happy I actually went. Very fun going away party, parts felt like a kekkon nijikai party, but it was all good. Mrs Trang and yukata - they seem to get along very well. 

And, Mr Hamada - winner of the janken battle, seems to get a long very well with his price... a bottle of Moet. 

TGI Friday, but a Wednesday
