After yesterday's sad post, I don't know what to write today, except that we had a great family day today. Total opposite of yesterday. We played board games (in an air conditioned room, had discussions over dinner and went for a family bike ride with no complaints or arguing from anyone. Some of you must have been praying for us! Praise God for good days!
To fill in for my lack of words, I have some more photos from our visitors' time with us.
Our visitors spent quite a lot of time on the phone and on email dragging out of us what they could bring with them for us. We said, almost tongue in cheek, a cricket bat. Well they brought three!! Plus two sets of stumps! Oh, and heaps of Australian treats like Mars Bars, jelly snakes, Rice Bubbles, Weetbix, Turkish Delights etc.
We tried the cricket gear out in a local park:
And we travelled quite a lot of trains together. Our family have plastic cards that we just charge up periodically, but these were complicated to get for just a short time, especially for the kids. So we just helped our visitors buy tickets at every station!
One day we took a more "adult" day. Visiting some of the city centre. Both of these photos are in the centre of Tokyo. The green one is in the public part of the Emperor's Gardens. We hadn't been there before, but it is a lovely spot.
