John's parents are coming to Japan tomorrow, and we're off to Tokyo with them for a week. I'm really looking forward to showing them Japan, exploring Tokyo more myself, having a well(ish) earned break from work and eating the British goodies they're under strict instructions to bring!
I promise to post more about Sendai tanabata when I get back, but for the time being, here are a few non-tananbata photos from the last week.
