This weekend...

Not too much going on this weekend - we went yesterday for lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe and then went to look at cell phones. We weren't very successful as we needed our passports - we had been that we would only need our alien registration paperwork... so we'll have to go back later and finish that paperwork. The amount of options was quite overwhelming! Saw the Japanese version of the iPhone and the "Disney Mobile" line - the phones had little Mickeys all over them!

It was a bit drizzly but cooler so we thought we'd try to take a walk through the Azabu Juban street festival - this is right near our house. Oh my goodness - it was CROWDED!!! This apparently is quite the big event... The street closes down and there were TONS of vendors seeling all kinds of things from foods to crafts. Seemed like there were lots of things cooked on sticks and HUGE woks for noodles.

It started raining a bit harder and everyone brought out their umbrellas which made it even more crowded - and slightly more dangerous since we now had to look out to make sure we didn't get our eye poked out! We thought we'd try to go back this afternoon but after a walk to the grocery it was raining again and we didn't feel that adventurous...

Sydney went over to the neighbor's house for a playdate and Chris and Nicholas got a chance to play catch outside this morning before the rain. Chris was also nice and walked down and got me a cup of coffee... Seems I didn't plan correctly and didn't pack my coffee pot in the air shipment... Looks like that won't come until the last week of September!

We're now at home watching some TV and getting ready for tomorrow's first day of school... We all get to ride the bus with Nicholas and go meet his teacher tomorrow morning. Then in the afternoon we go for new student registration for Sydney. They both seem excited...
