Sunday - Warm and Sunny
I woke up this morning when my alarm went off. It was around 10 am. I got up a little later to get dressed. F went downstairs and made his mother breakfast. I think he cooked fish because the house reeked for a while.
We left just after 11 and drove to the Kamo Aquarium. It was very busy of course and we weren’t able to get a parking spot anywhere near the building. We decided to go somewhere else and have lunch there. We tried at Yunohama 100 Years restaurant but they were a bit busy. F put his name in and they said that they’d phone him.
We went for a drive and I actually got rather worried because he went really far away. I got him to turn the car around and we got back to the restaurant, only to find that they had tried to call him. He called back and we were able to go in.
Today, I had their mushroom and tuna pasta in a cream sauce. It was gorgeous. F had their meat plate which was a chicken stew with gnocchi on the side. He didn’t like it very much. Sigh. I would have liked it but the sauce on the stew looked suspiciously tomatoey.
After our meal was over we drove back to the Kamo Aquarium and were able to get a closer parking spot. We went in. We were able to get in fairly soon, but the aquarium was really busy. It wasn't much fun. We couldn't see the fish for the people! Some people just stayed in front of the tanks for ages and wouldn't move. F and I did a bit of skipping areas and waiting reasonably patiently. We did enjoy our time at the aquarium overall. The jellyfish were really cool as usual.
We decided to go and have a drink at a cafe that we’ve been to a couple of times. I used my phone to give us directions. We went and had a nice time at the cafe, except F knocked over his water glass and got water everywhere.
When we finished our drinks we paid. I also bought some popcorn and brought that back to the house. We picked up a few groceries and came back to the house. F gave his mother her dinner and then came upstairs where I was.
We relaxed for a while. We weren’t too hungry so we waited for a while. Around 8 pm I told F that we really should go and have dinner as places would be closing soon! We decided to go to Coco Ichibanya but in the car F made another suggestion. He asked about going for okonomiyaki. I thought that was a great idea, but I thought the restaurant might be closed. We drove over there but it was closed. The lights were still on, so we probably just missed it. We ended up at Coco Ichibanya and got a table right away.
I tried their new Kashmir curry with tandori chicken and F had their curry with shabu-shabu. He liked his, I didn’t really like mine. It was spicy which was fine, but they put spices on the top of the curry and I didn’t like them.
We came back to the house and relaxed again. I decided to watch a movie from the Fire Disk and chose Spaceballs. I saw it years ago when it came out. It was silly and dumb. I didn’t hate it, but I don’t need to see it again!
And that…was my day. I’m not sure what we’ll get up to tomorrow. We have a meeting with K’s social worker in the afternoon and I’m going to have to buy groceries tomorrow too.
Come back later if you are interested and find out what I get up to. Until tomorrow….
