In Japan, today is called White Day, and men give women chocolates (women give them to men on Valentine's Day).
It was raining a bit, so we togged Emily up in her new Miffy raincoat and bright yellow wellies. She seemed very pleased with her new outfit.
Nick took her to the childrens playhall at the end of our road while I was at class, where she picked up a 6-year old stalker who kept touching her. It was the last class in the current course and I got my certificate, though all that really proves is that I attended enough times. The last hour was a 'party' with Japanese buffet food and bottles of cold Oolong tea.
After lunch we went to the Imperial Palace. I left the stroller at home, which I regretted when Emily decided she didn't want to walk much and I had to carry her, resulting in very aching arms and shoulders that night and next day. Meanwhile Nick went off to the musical instruments quarter nearby to check out guitars, as he has been harbouring a desire for a new one for ages. I am perfectly happy with that (goodness knows he has worked hard enough for it) as long as he agrees to get rid of one of his old ones at the same time.
