No time to settle back in for Emily, as it was nursery day. After dropping her off Mum and I first popped into Starbucks for a coffee and ended up chatting with Jo and Bettina for an hour, as it was the first time we three mums had been together for 4 weeks, due to Jo's trip back to Aus.


Afterwards, Mum and I rode the Yurikamome light rail all the way to Toyosu, which turned out to be nearly a complete circuit of the bay. I didn't realise Toyosu was so close to Ginza. There was nothing particularly special there - just another mall - so we didn't linger. We went back on the Yurikamome to Daiba and had lunch and a potter round the shops. We enjoyed the trip back across to Shibaura on the Urban Launch boat, and I hoped that our day out was helping to take Mum's mind off her imminent return and Grandad's funeral.



I just realised that Emily is not really stammering any more. Hopefully it was just a temporary glitch in her speech centre as her brain was growing. Quite a relief, as I was getting concerned.
