Just loved the pattern of boats and push – can’t remember what they’re called!

I love Sunshine City.  On the weekend it is crazy to go there as it is so busy, just looking at all the people makes me feel tired.  I must visit all my regular haunts, including Moe Garden.  Many characters which have been made into toys, stationery, books etc. are placed in this shop.  Moe also produces a brilliant magazine called ‘Moe’ which has been instrumental and inspiring for my children’s books.  Excuse the dreadful photos – indoor lighting isn’t my camera’s forte.

Spotted lots of owl things in Ikebukuro today.  First a topiary group then an owl competition in Sunshine City.

In Tokyo Station there is a gorgeous little cafe with lots and lots of traditional toys in glass cabinets.  It’s a little embarrassing trying to get photos while coffee drinkers are seated in front of them.  But I must perservere and will return sometime in August.
