Right, we've got a few minutes left until the internet runs out so just a quick one and then that's almost definitely it unless we find a wifi hotspot somewhere!
Had a lovely lie-in this morning and then headed for Akibahara which is where all the nerds hang out. Full of electronics shops, manga shops and a few maid cafes. There was so much computer gear and little toys and comics and little manga style characters. It was really good fun and we had a great time looking around - Thom would love it there in amongst all the geeks!
Craig wanted to go to RC Champ - a shop that sells radio controlled car bits but rather annoyingly it turns out that it's closed on Monday's so we're going to head back there later in the week.
Pretty much got the rest of our stay here sorted, going to head to Asakusa where there is a big temple and the Asahi Tower which is the headquarters of Asahi and apparently the building is clad to look like a glass of Asahi - golden all the way up with a white top like a head! We've been told that we can go up to the top to an observation deck to a bar and have an Asahi whilst looking out over Tokyo!
Also on our list of places to go is the Imperial Gardens which we can actually see part of from our hotel window!
We'll do an update of our last few days when we get home and post lots more pics.
Gill, Craig has managed to get reception on his phone so if you need to get hold of us for any reason then send him a text - he's not receiving calls.
