16 May 08

Another fine day, so we went to meet Nick at lunchtime. Afterwards I walked over to Shiba Koen park. Outside Tokyo Tower there was a beautiful rose trellis about 300 yards long. Such a lovely assortment of shades, all of them bursting with heady scent. It was very incongruous against the backdrop of the gaudy red steel girders.


At the park there was a bit of a dog-owners love-in going on, with about 10 pooches and their owners all fussing over their pets, and feeding them titbits. They are incredibly spoilt; definitely child-substitutes.
