Riverside 21 ~ Sumida River

read in newspaper monthly about this "shitamachi" (=old town) called monzennaka cho and decided to bring cooper to explore this other side of tokyo. on the way, i discovered this really cool residential development along the sumida river. and the waterfront was perfect for a stroll with cooper on a sunday evening. this development is called the riverside 21. really cool. a perfect place for a date on a sunday evening, if even it is just a dog. well, as i had to rush for tennis game with my uni friends in a "god-knows-where" forsaken place, i had to leave before sunset. naturally i had no time to explore monzennaka cho. will be back soon. weather wise, even though it was hot in the afternoon, evening was perfect. it was almost autumn-like. perfect. it was wonderful playing tennis in that weather..')

disney sea

went with friend to disneysea, tokyo. finally. been procrastinating for a long time. weather was a little hot in the day, but evening was perfect. disneysea has a very european feel, with a arabian theme in the middle which i felt was out of place. rides were alright, nothing terribly exciting. but i think its worth a visit. the night show was spectacular, followed by a fireworks. we were lucky to secure a place on one of the building top where the view was unblocked. the day show was quite good too with a splendid display of colors. with disneyland, followed by disneysea, whats next? disneyair?? they can form defence-disney after. just a tot.
