I wanted to check out the Doraemon display at Roppongi Hills.
There were many Doraemon here and there.
it was nice to see it up close
This shop's main shop is in Kyoto and they sell roasted chestnuts all over Japan.
I chose the grilled saba (mackerel) sushi lunch...this was delicious.
The side dishes were cold so they were perfect for the humid day!
He said it was delicious but that he'd be hungry later...
Lots of objet around Roppongi Hills.
International House of Japan.
Loved the old buildings/apartments in the Roppongi area.
We also shared this mont blanc shave ice (photo above)
There was chestnut paste inside as well as fig puree.
Also you could pour some fig puree on the shave ice as you ate it.
This was delicious, but we wished the ice was more finely shaved.
They are building a bridge near JR Hamamatsucho station to go all the way to Takeshiba, it was fun watching the trains from there.
It's been really gross. Hot & super humid.
Hope it is cooler where you are.

I know I've said it before but you guys are BRAVE! I think we're over the worst, but this year's temps were unbelievable up here in the mountains. I have never experienced days in the mid-90's for days on end, it was just awful. I hate summer now.
Rowena, they are saying this heat is going to go until October?! eep. I hate Japan summers.
Take care.

Take care.

your grilled saba sushi looks so ono. I could eat that!
I bought one of those rechargeable personal fans a couple of years ago. It really works good and if you use lowest fan speed the charges lasts about 10 hours! I wonder how well it would work if the air was so hot and humid.

V, so many people have those tiny fans, dunno how well they work with the humidity
Take care.
