Back to school

After a 2 month hiatus, I'm signed up for 2 cooking classes. These don't really look all that interesting or appetizing but will let you know!




Tonight I'm going to have drinks with Lauren and her friends in her Azabu Juban (neighborhood next to mine). There's a big festival there this weekend - details:

The Azabu Juban Festival is not sponsored by a temple, but visitors will surely be taken aback by the sight of more than 700 booths and curio and flea markets engulfing the residential districts of Azabu Juban. The festival requires some gusto in getting through the hordes of people, but you will be rewarded handsomely with games and foods that range from the familiar (shaved ice) to the exotic (barbecued squid on a stick). And don't forget to follow the beat of the taiko drums and join in the Bon festival dance at 5pm

Tomorrow I am going to see Ocean's 13.
